I'm gonna say that when a movie glorifies rape and that prevents you from enjoying it, it's not a "hang up", it's a pretty reasonable reaction.
That being said, I'm never quite sure how I feel about the whole "no no no oh yes" thing that movies with badass heroes do so often. I think the main thing to remember is that it's pretty obviously a fantasy, rather than a realistic depiction of what sex should be like. Still, it's disturbing that something so mainstream presents scenes that could easily be taken to mean "It's okay to fuck someone when they repeatedly tell you no, because afterwards they'll be glad you did."
It's a tricky subject, but I generally prefer movies that err on the side of, uh, not being rapey. Just, you know. As a general rule.
Reposted because I totally know the difference between "no" and "know", honest.
