The film is a gender-swapped remake of 'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,' and it appears that much of the change is driven by a desire for female-led representation rather than creative necessity. While not all characters feel shoehorned, the central conceit is clearly about flipping the script for ideological reasons, which can come across as forced to some viewers.

Traditional masculinity is mocked, men are often portrayed as gullible marks or foils, while the women are universally smarter and more capable. Gender roles are inverted in a way that's meant to feel empowering, but this approach can feel artificial and one-sided, making traditional traits seem backward.

There's a noticeable lack of sincere alternative worldviews, any resistance to the new dynamic is played for laughs, with male characters reduced to caricatures. There's very little debate or nuance provided about gender roles or empowerment, so the film feels ideologically one-note.
