Very disappointed :(
Memorable, crazy movie
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
View MoreThe film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
View MoreI really enjoyed this movie and was pleasantly surprised at how it was designed. I love all things related to the brain and it was really fun to see a few of our most common bizarre behaviors put into their biological context.The entire cast gave great performances, but I'd just like to give a shout out to Cecily Strong. Her character went through the normal battles of wrestling with her emotions and the battles of being a woman in a male-dominated job, and came out on top of both. A great performance from a woman who doesn't get enough credit either for her comedy or as her role as an example for women.
View MoreNo, it's not a documentary. At best it's a smart chick flick. That's not a bad thing though. It tells us a lot about the cerebral differences between males and females and it does it while telling a number of stories. And the stories are good and they're something most people can relate to. But like another viewer said, watch it until the end. Not a waste of time.
View MoreSo, I am finishing watching the movie right now and noticed that it is listed as comedy but all it tries to do is justifying women's behaviors by using NOT SCIENTIFIC data. There is a female narrator all the time and she keeps pointing out that "we used to think ABC about women's brains but since I read a study on a blog, now we, the entire human kind, think differently". Which is obviously not comedy, but a feminist rant that has no correlation to reality and scientific data, since scientific axioms depend on data being collected through several years, by several different studies, most of the time thousands of them (Example: Einstein's relativity took more than a 100 years to get fully checked and we are still trying to figure and validate some of its aspects), and when they CONVERGE, the scientific community declares it is true to science. Which is NOT the case for any of the affirmations on "women's brains" made on the movie, like the one that says "now 'we know' that women and men have the same amount of brain cells" (obviously a lie because as I said one study alone means nothing to science, as well as only a dozen of them and cerebellum is different from brain, they are two different organs). One could argue "but it's a comedy". Well, as I said, it doesn't look like comedy because in comedy you don't try that hard to justify your opinions. Which makes the movie look so lame that you can't actually laugh at all. Also, the main female character looks superficial (futile sub-intelectual type). The male characters look artificially dumb and misogynistic on purpose but not in a funny way.
View MoreThis is a good movie. It might seem a bit simple in the beginning, but it is logical,analytical,educational, and medium entertaining, but it winds up everything that happens in a touching and beautiful conclusion/ending. Watch it all to the end.. Btw, I am a man.
