I knew there was a What a Women Want reboot in the works, and my interest was zero.

I heard they were flipping the script a la genders, and it was still zee - row.

Cast Taraji P. Henson in the lead and I was like: "Fuck... I'm gonna have to watch this now aren't I?"

And so I did. But I probably shouldn't have.

Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

While it's potentially problematic for many of the same reasons for the Mel Gibson "What Women Want", I think this is a much better version, and a good modernization. It's also a good way to shift it to a "black movie".

Taraji P. Henson does an excellent job carrying the movie and it is full of good humor, and exciting moments.

The movie does send a little bit of a mixed message as it seems to indicate that a woman needs to be a man in order to play in a man's world, but it feels more like its about it not being a man's world.

Well, it has less that 5 Stars and I think that is a very good thing. Less than a year ago giving a movie like "What Men Want" anything less than a perfect score would have created a Ghostbusters style backlash to anyone that even remotely suggested it might not be better than The Godfather.

And then Oceans 8 flopped...and got mainly positive reviews based principally out of fear...and had a cast that mostly seemed disinterested in attacking absolutely everyone that didn't buy a ticket.

Now it seems that that critics are OK with giving it a low rating, so long as they still only praise it... διαβάστε τα υπόλοιπα.
