Review of The Red Pill (2016) by Coatoan90 — 03 May 2017

I'm going to write this review without spoilers. The film follows Casie Jaye as she sets out to find out "What it's like to be a MRA (Men's Rights Advocate)". She is a feminist, and in all honesty going into this documentary I thought I'd seen it all/heard it all.

I wasn't prepared to have my own views challenged and I consider myself an egalitarian. It really made me question MYSELF as a man and why I hold certain views especially about war. The documentary will switch back and forth between MRAs and Feminists giving their respective points of view, while Casie shares her thoughts on this journey, and how changed the way she thinks and her own personal beliefs.

This movie is important, and it addresses ALOT of issues facing men today from Custody, Father's rights, suicide, etc. You have to be a truly close hearted/closed minded individual for this film not to move you.

I wish she (Casie) had gone more into rape culture, but I think she purposefully "Skated" past it. She could have highlighted the "UVA Rolling stone scandal" and really shown how false rape really hurts men, and how it's making men the victims in alot of situations.

All and all the film is really good, and it is an eye opener. Fully recommend you watch it.
