"Cassie Jaye’s men, and by association the filmmaker herself, are not serving a greater good or inspiring discourse, but instead fuelling a social divide and dishonouring their respective genders..." Read the full review here: http://screen-space.squarespace.com/reviews/2016/12/7/the-red-pill.html

<p> Lets get this out of the way. First things first, <i><b>THE BAD</b></i>: It's a shame that Men's Rights have to be validated through the lens of a <i><b>feminist's</b></i> perspective in order to be taken seriously, <i>BUT</i>, at the same time that's the Documentary's strongest point.</p> <p> Men's voices are not being heard.

Most of what they claim aren't present in the film at all, they are assumptions of what the MRA is and not what is stated in the documentary. And then there are entire reviews about thing that aren't even a part of the documentary. So clearly this is polarizing, but I haven't seen polarization where it's this blatant that one side didn't bother to watch the film. At any rate, the Cassie video journals are interesting as we see how her own thoughts evolved on the subject (if …
