For fans of some of America's finest actresses, seeing a film with even one of the cast members of The Women would be a treat. But this remake of George Cukor's famed girl-trouble ensemble film features Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Jada Pinkett Smith, Eva Mendes, Debra Messing, Cloris Leachman, Bette Midler, Carrie Fisher, Joanna Gleason, and Candice Bergen--whew!--making it a film that fans of these terrifically talented women can savor. The remake may not have the cat-itude or camp factor of the original, but so what? The cast's chemistry really shines; friendship is thicker than water, it turns out--even stronger than the ties that bind women to their men. Ryan is the good-girl Mary Haines, whose husband, she and her friends learn, is cheating on her with the stunning femme fatale Crystal (Mendes, in the Joan Crawford role)--"a spritzer" at the perfume counter. Quelle horreur! The other women rally around the hapless Mary, staging interventions, offering snappy advice, and plotting battles on behalf of their friend. But it turns out that Ryan's Mary isn't quite as fragile as she seems. Gimlets and girl talk--lots of both--go a long way toward getting our heroine through her crisis, and onto a new stage in her life that surprises her husband and more than one of her pals. And the laughs by the appearances of Midler and Bergen, especially, are worth watching the whole film for. --A.T. Hurley

Women should be disgusted and insulted by the rash of "chick flicks" put out by Hollywood in recent years where women are concerned with little else than shopping and romance. This movie features some very good actresses, but the material is banal and completely lacking in depth.
Meg Ryan plays a rich woman who spends her time doing "fundraising," and although she has only one child, somehow requires a full-time housekeeper (Cloris Leachman) and au pere girl to keep it all going.

As movies go, it was not terrible. It had great comedic moments, like Annette Benning's initial conversation with the gossippy manicurist. However, why didn't they just hire Kim Cattrall to play that role? It was essentially the same character as SATC's Samantha. In fact, Kristin Davis would have played the Debra Messing character perfectly, and Sarah Jessica Parker even has the same wild hair Meg Ryan's character had. Candice Bergen was already in SATC so her placement in The Women was a short ... Read More

I am very familiar with the play, "The Women", because I played the part of Little Mary (renamed Molly in the movie) in a local production many years ago. I was curious to see what an updated movie version would be like and I was not disappointed. Unlike many of the other reviewers, I thoroughly enjoyed the remake.
The plot centers around Mary Haines, whose husband is having an affair with a perfume salesgirl at Saks. Mary hears about it from a gossipy manicurist, and once the cat is ... Read More

this sucked. overracting and underacting and just plain bad acting. insightful to this extent: if art imitates reality it shows just how plain unbearable annoying and dysfunction "people" (read women) become who worship aesthetic (fashion, "right" associations, trends, successful image etc) as if it were religion.

This film was proof that hot looking actresses don't guarantee that the movie is worth watching. I wish I could have rated it Zero.
