Storyline:
Based on a very clever comedy by Claire Booth, wife of Time Publisher Henry Luce and later Ambassador to Italy. One of the surprises was an all-woman cast, novel in the 1930's. And although there were no men in the cast, most of the dialog was about them. The story is rather thin and depended on the fact that divorce, in the 1930's, was not only difficult but almost impossible in New York. Mrs. Stephen Haynes learns that her husband is seeing a salesgirl at Saks, and reluctantly divorces him, abetted by her friends, all of whom have romantic problems of their own. In the 1930's New York women who could afford it went to Nevada, where residency could be established quickly and divorce was relatively easy. The 1939 film, starring Norma Shearer, Paulette Goddard, Rosalind Russell, and Joan Crawford, was a hit. This one, with an even better looking cast, is definitely not, largely because someone tried to move a 1930's situation comedy into the present.

this was my first night out in a long time and seeing this movie made the evening; especially since my daughter and her mother-in-law (a friend, too) were with me. we laughed so much. any woman can relate to the friendships which were updated to the 21st century. haven't seen the original movie and can't imagine it being better. the theater was packed.....there was ONE man with his girl friend!!! to relax with other women (who i didn't know) laughing at the same scenes was uplifting for me. the actresses really portrayed being friends sooooo accurately; i really believe they are best friends! this is my review and i'm sticking to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took my teenage daughter to see this movie because it is an important historical event for women in Hollywood. It is a remake of a 1939 movie that was one of the first major studio films that featured no male actors. History lesson aside, I was a little worried I would not enoy the movie because more than a few fan reviews panned the movie. I'm very glad I saw it. This was one of the funnier movies I have seen in years and the performances of Annette Benning, Meg Ryan, Cloris Leachman, and Candice Bergen were all excellent. Candice Bergen's character had the best lines in the screenplay. Meg Ryan has another "When Harry Met Sally" line. Eva Mendes is hot! The morale of the story is also an important one for either gender.

It has been a very long time since I have seen a movie with Meg Ryan that was true to her talents. I thought this was a great girlfriend movie. It proves that everybody makes mistakes even if they don't want to. And that most everybody needs second chances.

The movie was full of big name aging actresses. Some aging more gracefully than others. Even with all of that talent, the acting was poorly done. The concept was fun - cheating husband, girlfriends rally around scorned wife seek revenge, yada yada yada. There were plenty of laughs and one-liners for the ladies in the audience. Probably a better movie to rent or wait for On-Demand.
