What Women Want


Wouldn't every man love to know exactly what women are really thinking?

That's what happens to Mel Gibson in "What Women Want", a funny, entertaining and interesting romantic comedy. At the start of the film, Gibson's character is quite chauvinistic, but that soons changes as he basically finds out what it's like to be a woman. Sounds weird, but it really works well on screen.

There are plenty amusing scenes, especially the one with Mel Gibson using leg wax, putting on tights etc in the bathroom. The acting was really good and the majority of the characters were likeable enough. The only character that I didn't really warm to was Nick's daughter, Alex, who was a typical teenager complaining about her father constantly throughout the film.

Good film overall.

7/10

I really liked Helen Hunt in this film, but I haven't really seen much of her other stuff.
