History YMMV / SexMission

* MisaimedHatedom: After being screened in cinemas in the West, this movie got a lot of flak from feminist community, who deemed it as "fascist" and "sexist", even claiming that they got "manipulated" by it, since they were actually [[RootingForTheEmpire rooting for the male leads]] while watching it. This is despite the fact that this movie has absolutely ''nothing'' in common with feminism or sexism and is purely a satire on totalitarian communist regime that still held Poland it its grip at the time of the movie's making and release. Choosing to portray it via fictional female-only society was basically aesthetic ([[GettingCrapPastTheRadar and means of fooling communists censors]]), therefore criticising it for being "sexist" that way makes just as much sense as claming that ''Literature/AnimalFarm'' tried to tell us that animals ([[MakesSenseInContext or pigs and dogs, at the very least...]]) are inherently evil. Then again, such reaction is somewhat understandable, given the fact that said flak -- see above -- came from ''Western'' feminist community, who had little to no contact with harsh reality of Eastern Bloc of the time, making oh so many more or less subtle jabs at the communist regime fly right over their heads.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: The film received a video game adaptation, ''A.D. 2044'', in 1991 for UsefulNotes/Atari8BitComputers, which was remade for UsefulNotes/MicrosoftWindows in 1996. The second game especially was criticized as a poor clone of ''VideoGame/{{Myst}}'', with a badly translated narrative, models that fall into the UncannyValley, and poorly mixed music and dialogue. It also added a new AdaptationExpansion that falls into Unfortunate Implications, where the few remaining men in the world are hunted and are subject to [[EasySexChange forced sex change surgery]].

* ValuesDissonance: While the film was created as a satire of totalitarianism and the policies of the then communist government of Poland, its allegorical use of an all-female society drew some UnfortunateImplications today. Several Polish feminist reviewers accuse the film of promoting a misogynist worldview, in associating feminism with authoritarian communism, and depicting an all-female world as a dystopia ruled by a supreme leader [[spoiler:who is really a [[DisguisedInDrag man in drag]]]].

** "Copernicus was a woman!"[[note]]Response of a Women League representative when Albert tries to explain not all men are bad, bringing Copernicus up as an example.
