The Bechdel test says nothing about the quality of a film. If a film passes the test, it does not mean that the film is feminist. If a film fails the test, it does not mean that the film is misogynistic. A film can even be centered around a woman and fail the test. Also, no one is demanding that every film passes the test. The test is a commentary on the film industry in general.
The Bechdel Test Move List currently contains 4522 movies ( http://bechdeltest.com/ ). Of those, 55.7% pass all three points of the test while 10.2% pass none of them:
The test indicates that women and their stories are not being represented in film. It indicates a problem (although I am sure there are people who do not think it is important for women to be represented in movies). The “reverse Bechdel test” is not very useful because there is not a widespread problem of men not interacting with other men.
