Are you sure, you want to add The Women
to your wish list?
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.

Very cute. Great cast. A little boring at times. Not half the movie the original is. If you like old movies, see the 1939 The Women with Norma Shear, Rosiland Russell and Joan Crawford! One of the greats! And if you have some time on a rainy afternoon, see this one.

Don't Bother...had great expectations given the cast...and was totally disappointed.
The story line was predictable, the characters were flat . Bette Midler, Candice Bergen,Cloris Leachman, and Debra Messing flit in and out of the storyline under the guise of furthering the plot but really make no difference.
Meg Ryan is her usual "Harry met Sally," "Sleepless in Seattle," and "You've got Mail" character that just isn't interesting, or diverse enough, to play a lead.
Annette Bening played a cardboard cutout stereotype with a totally unbelievable moment of epiphany which left me confused.
Jada Pinkett Smith was angry, constantly, and was more of a distraction in this film then someone part of a group of friends,..what an energy drain.
Perhaps its because everyone in the film has had plastic surgery, botox, or restiline injections, and they can't move thier faces to show any genuine expression. I just can't care about someone when their face looks likes it's been sewn in place.

I saw this movie tonight with my mother and teenage daughter. We all enjoyed it a lot! This is a star-studded cast to say the least. One interesting thing about the movie is that when they say "The Women", they mean it. We didn't see one single man in the entire film. It is definitely a "chick flick". The whole audience was laughing so much and so loud that sometimes you'd miss the next several lines because of the noise level. I will definitely buy this one when it comes out on DVD. It's a keeper!

This was alot more funnier than I ever expected. The cast was wonderful, and they all did a wonderful job in their roles. Even my 19 year old daughter loved it! I have to take my mom to go see it.
