10. I thought it was a silly but fun movie.

If the *point* of the movie was to explain women's issue, then sure. They certainly could have had a better female role to perhaps explain things to him. I mean I love Teri garr, the script is the problem not her acting.

But I saw the movie more as silly fun, and an excuse to let Hoffman essentially play two roles, and if it helps men better envision how women get treated, perhaps some good was done along the way.

But generally I agree that allies should support, not replace, the voices of women and minorities.
