The 355 is a new female action movie from Dark Phoenix director Simon Kinberg with a budget of 75 million dollars, starring big names like Jessica Chastain and Lupita Nyong'o and Diane Kruger. And despite everything it has going for it, the movie still managed to flop at the box office, meaning that Hollywood now has yet another reason (on top of movies like Charlie's Angels and Birds of Prey) not to buy my female action script. I'm pissed but also intrigued to find out what went wrong, so let's do that. Here's why The 355 fails as an action movie starring women and what all of us should improve on for our own work.share
