The thematic idea that men were destroying the world and that a woman was needed to save it. That's not an inherently incorrect or bad idea, however; it resulted in what was only a good film being promoted beyond its rightful stature. I'd rather the film have been taken on its actual merits rather than its perceived politics. The film is now a podium to preach from as opposed to what I assume it was meant to be, a platform to further build a shared universe on. The film never went with the implication that men were killing the world, especially when one of the antagonists was a woman. The conflict behind the film was this idea that humanity as a whole was destroying the world, hence why Ares’ motivation was to wipe them all out. So why is anything outside of the Amazon's Island referred to as the "world of man" as if women didn't live in it too and weren't equally culpable in its in current state? |
