Carla Hay Culture Mix The breezy comedy Pilot has similarities to the 1982 film Tootsie, but Pilot has updated themes that demonstrate the role that social media can play in shaping public images. Even with its amusing moments, Pilot has a lot to say about gender stereotypes. Aug 14, 2024 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post Pilot is less a tale of deception than one of upending the status quo and highlighting a gender imbalance that persists even in this alleged era of unprecedented progressiveness. That it is also hilarious only helps lift the film to greater heights. Rated: 4/5 Aug 14, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
