CGiii Comment

Labeled as moralistic, sexist, and homophobic - it is all these things and more...

It is a dark and bleak film with no respite - making it a somewhat tedious journey.

The final 15 minutes are bizarre - and, unlike the previous 2 hours, disturbing and very offensive to those of a sensitive nature.

Ultimately, this will leave you feeling colder than a witch's tit.

It is an interesting look at the emancipation of women - surely, it wasn't that unpalatable!?!
