In the end, English just wants to make a nice chick flick with some sassy lines. Genuine nastiness has been eliminated, while not-very-funny banter is retained.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen.

The funniest thing about The Women is that Mick Jagger is one of the producers. There was a knowing laugh in the theatre as his name sprang up in the opening credits -- our last chance to laugh, as it turned out, for the next two hours.

I love women in real life but at the movies I hated The Women.

The classic 1939 film adaptation... worth seeing again and again. This is not.
