Professor Vincent Hausmann charges that in their reinforcement of masculinity "against threats posed by war, by consumerism, and by feminist and queer challenges", these films present a need to "focus on, and even to privilege" aspects of maleness "deemed 'deviant'".
Profesor Vincent Hausmann smatra da u svojem pojačavanju muškosti "protiv prijetnji rata, konzumerizma i feminizma i homoseksualnosti", ovi filmovi predstavljaju potrebu za "fokusiranjem i čak privilegijom" aspekta muškosti "koji se smatraju izopačenim".
