CGiii Comment

Angry, tartan-clad, neo-feminist, men-hating women thrust their hips in public...and, politically, call it Juck!

Look...if this is serious, each and all should seek therapy...promptly.

If it is not serious...perhaps, an injection of humour would have benefited all, audience included.

The last scene is fantastically powerful imagery...an all-female, male-domain-hi-jacking of the haka!

Still...it is a load of tosh!

Juck is sex. Juck is energy. Juck is protest. Juck is therapy. Juck is action. Juck is dominance. Juck is provocation. Juck is tolerance. Juck is movement. Juck is fantasy. Juck is arousal. Juck is utopia. Juck is seeing one’s self, even if it’s tough. Juck is not apologizing for existing. ‘Femininity is a word that we can fill up with whatever we want,’ they say. They fill it up with Juck.
