"Powerpuff Girls: The Movie"
2002
PG-13
Warner Bros.

The Powerpuff Girls are the latest of superhero comic strip 
characters. They are three little girls with superpowers that enable
them to fly, build things quickly and fight of course.

A mutant monkey decides that simians have lived under humyn rule
too long and uses the Powerpuff Girls to build power for his simian
mutant creations. In the end, the Powerpuff Girls kill off hundreds
of mutant monkeys, gorillas and apes to win victory.

No doubt these are forceful female characters for young children to imbibe.
In that sense, "Powerpuff Girls" may contribute to gender equality within
society as it exists. On the other hand, society as it exists seems quick
to come up with reasons why massive violence is a good thing.

Like Batman and  Spiderman, the Powerpuff Girls also fight crime in a one-on-one
way. Although it would be no problem for the Powerpuff Girls to build homes
for all the homeless and organize food production for the hungry--because we've
seen their speed in building crazy mutant monkey bases and laboratories--
they still prefer to fight the relatively minor violence of crime one case at a time
instead of resolving its roots or eliminating much larger sources of violence.

In conclusion, the Powerpuff Girls are a reactionary, pseudo-feminist enterprise.
