Pro Feminism

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 2000)

I thought this would be another of those 'bimbo-ish' B-grade movie, but no, it's stylish, well plotted and pro-feminist.
I accompanied my boyfriend with some doubts (guess who was the initiator ;o) I expected to find slinky women gyrating to drooling men, and though it was not lacking in that department, it was not gratuitous sex that was its undercurrent. Rather, there were strength and courage in the Coyotes' endeavours in a rough and tumble world. They were just doing a job like any of us and were they good at it. Above all, I came out of the theatre feeling a sense of empowerment as this was a movie all about realising and celebrating feminism in all its curves and beauty.
