I see feminism as the idea that men and women are equal. Feminist films can come in a variety of expressions: subtle examinations of gender relations, positive and negative, or obvious examples of female power. I, too, liked the way Zoller came across like a romantic comedy hero. She, however, did not fall into the traditional pattern. Then he turned out to be much more realistic than that trope - a self-centered jerk. The movie was both a condemnation and praise of revenge. I found myself looking forward to redemptive violence, but when it came, it was unexpected and sickening. The film had its fair share of humor, and watching Nazis laugh at the propaganda film as I laughed at Inglourious Basterds was disconcerting.
