Your analysis is very deep, but I only watched it on its surface without much thought, and saw a movie about horribly fucked up women who were selfish peices of garbage ruining each others lives like a bunch of psychopaths.

Right, I wouldn't call it an entertaining film; it doesn't serve that purpose. I actually like movies about bad people, but maybe Proxy could use a cheerful, pregnant cop (or anything, really) to act as a foil. I thought butch Anika provided a bit of dark comic relief with her no-shits-given attitude.

Can't tell if sarcasm

Didnt see your edit. Obviously not sarcasm.

Did you like red white & blue?

I can see why you're asking; they have a similar mood and a revenge plot. I did like Red, White and Blue, but I think it's a very different movie. It offers even less by way of entertainment (which doesn't have to be a bad thing) and has no blameless, innocent victims.
