Leaving aside the gender issue and just commenting on the movie, this is a movie about New York. The tediousness and blandness depicted in the film are very real and interesting. Garner's performance is very good, very optimistic about her future! In addition, the denunciation of gender issues is quite satisfactory.

Jane: Yeah.
Boss: Okay... Then send me a fucking apology.
