Summary: A wealthy New Yorker leaves her cheating husband and bonds with other society women at a resort. A remake of George Cukor's 1939 film "The Women."
"The original version of The Women, shrill and campy as it can be, is miles ahead of this remake when it comes to issues of class and social maneuvering." - Dan Callahan
As nice as it is to see the rarity of a movie filled with female characters, it would be nicer if they weren't a motley, painfully unfunny collection of cliches and stereotypes. A band of good (or at least respectable) actresses get painfully stranded in the dreadful mess, none more tragically than Annette Bening, whose character varies so wildly from scene to scene that she seems to have no consistent connection to herself.
Should actually be called The Whiny Women Who've had too much Plastic Surgery. Might possibly be the film they should use to torture terrorists at Guantanomo. You know you're in trouble when two of the cast members are Bette Midler and Candice Bergen.
This is the biggest estrogen fest I've ever seen. It's not so much sexy as it is girl spirit. Maybe I should say middle-aged woman spirit. You really ought to love it.
Lots of hot women, no hot action. Meg Ryan's hair looks like a mop most of the way through the movie. That I can only talk about the hot women pretty much says it all about this movie. I'm not even sure chicks like this one.
Often entertaining remake of the George Cukor classic. As with Cukor's 1939 version, there are absolutely no guys whatsoever, which is part of this film's charm. The rest comes from the wonderful cast. A lot of talking in this film, which most won't mind, but few will.
Surprisingly, a film made by women and for women can be so limited and superficial. It is also inexplicable as actresses of the level of the actresses have accepted to do a movie so futile.
Not as good as the original, feels more like "Sex and the City"-lite. The only thing this one has over the original is that it is more in favor of empowered women.
