* CriticalBacklash: This film attracted much criticism from various outlets. However, it does have a few fanbases including among filmgoers, men's rights supporters and egalitarians.

* HarsherInHindsight: One of the ideas the film posits is that feminism has gone too far and now men are starting to be the oppressed gender. The film attracted a lot of criticism from feminists, Jaye herself has come under fire for this film during interviews and the double standards against men in the laws of Anglosphere countries (with exceptions such as India) have mostly either gone unaddressed or become worse.
* OvershadowedByControversy: While sincere and even-handed, this is a very polarizing movie, especially among feminists who don't like it for giving a voice to their opponents and seeing Cassie Jaye as a CategoryTraitor since Jaye was a former feminist until she was personally convinced by the research she did for this film. The film purports to be an even-handed exploration of the Men's Rights Movement, yet had quickly turned into a BaseBreaker debating Jaye's methods and means of questioning, gender politics, freedom of speech, gender-based double standards, and the merits of both movements.

** One particularly egregious example was the Cassie Jaye interview on the Australian TV show "Sunrise" on Channel 7. The newsanchors [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EQEuBxesC0 tried to do a smear tactic by attempting to (unsuccessfully) make her look like a deceitful misogynist]] (yet the newanchors even admitted during the interview that [[CriticalResearchFailure they didn't even watch the film]] and [[BlatantLies claimed they couldn't get access to it]] when Cassie later proved she emailed it to them a month in advance). This created a large audience backlash against Channel 7 Studios, [[EpicFail which they responded to by planning to delete videos of the interview from their website]].
** It happened again with another Australian TV Show, "The Project" from Channel 10, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vFpbjTaEYs who also jumped on the smear campaign bandwagon and also tried to misrepresent Cassie Jaye and her work]].

There is also the continuing trouble passing laws that are fair to both genders, particularly in divorce court, [[DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale sexually-based offences]] and the handling of domestic abuse.
