What Movie Should We Do Next?

We watch Netflix’s Ladies First and give it our locked-in star ratings before we get honest about what the movie tries to say about feminism. We talk through why the gender swap premise feels shallow, why the lesson comes too easy, and what a smarter version of the story could have been. 
• quick intro and why Ladies First is trending on Netflix 
• what everyone’s drinking and how the vibe hits 
• plot recap of Damien’s head injury role reversal 
• our category ratings for acting, cinematography, sound, plot, and rewatchability 
• why “role reversal equals empathy” doesn’t match real life 
• how the movie flattens microaggressions into throwaway jokes 
• what a matriarchal world would actually need to explore 
• our “insert ourselves” segment and the rewrites we’d rather watch
