CH has an excellent review/dissection of the movie:

Beta Valentine

[–]dregofsociety7 points8 points9 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

That movie got me into a rage. What a fucking chump to exponential levels. No movie has gotten me as fired up as that one.

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points9 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

A few years back I was trying to help out a bluepill friend who was married. He saw this movie and he said everything I told him finally clicked. Crazy...

[–]CinnabonHotJizz5 points6 points7 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yup. Another one too is the movie "500 Days of Summer" which is a more lighthearted and stylistically hip version of the same theme.

If you're ever considering an LTR with a chick, watch these two movies with her and ask her who she identifies with more... Consider it a shit test of your own.

[–]Endorsed Contributorgekkozorz1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

If she says "neither, both girls seem like cunts," she passes.

[–]cma62503 points4 points5 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I had to pause at the hotel scene, it was too overwhelming. Then I watched the rest of it later that night, very powerful. I can't say I blame his character, doing the best he could with what he had. I myself have dated selfish, bitchy women as well just because they'd date me after some romancing. Not after long we'd get into arguments, fights, end up submitting. Classic blue pill stuff. Now adays I know I'm the selector, so I won't settle for anything but the best.

[–]roe_3 points4 points5 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yes - the hotel scene feels like a pitch-perfect portrayal of a woman's repulsion at sex with a low-quality man. Pretty gut wrenching.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

Strongly recommend.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

this... was my dad's relationship with my mom

holy shit

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

just watched it yesterday. No way i'm going to let myself be like that

[–]MockingDead1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Damnit. I don't know if I am ready to watch this movie.

[–]Tastysalad1011 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I just watched this film after this recommendation and this along with the theories on this sub reddit does make things just click in my head what things are really like.

[–]MockingDead0 points1 point2 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I am watching it now. Is it wrong that I don't see the beta guy as a bad guy...

23 minutes in... I think I see the Alpha...

Disgunnabebad...

Can I have a text-drop? I cannot go on netflix in my country, thanks.
