I would like to see what he said. That sounds seriously pretentious since the only point of the movie was to show sexy girls slicing and shooting stuff and that is precisely what the hook of all the advertising was in no uncertain terms. Sounds to me like he was just trying to make excuses for the lameness and maintain some sort of hipster cool distance from accepting that it just plain sucked.

If the movie actually said anything meaningful about how sick society is because people like to see girls in cute schoolgirl outfits killing things then so be it, nothing wrong with challenging perceptions but he just did a crap job. The characters might as well have been reading bumper stickers instead of a script; in fact, using that many montages no matter how cool the song selection is to move the plot forward just starts to get retarded.
