I'm Your Woman was a really good movie. Rachel Brosnahan's performance was phenomenal. The writing was stupendous especially the story. The costumes were excellent especially ones wore by Rachel Brosnahan and Marsha Stephanie Blake. TheI'm Your Woman was a really good movie. Rachel Brosnahan's performance was phenomenal.

Jean (Rachel Brosnahan) is a woman about to have her world upturned. Unable to have children her husband Eddie (Bill Heck) comes home one day with a baby boy and tells her that this is their new child. In the new Amazon Original Film “I’mJean (Rachel Brosnahan) is a woman about to have her world upturned. Unable to have children her husband Eddie (Bill Heck) comes home one day with a baby boy and tells her that this is their new child. In the new Amazon Original Film “I’m Your Woman”; Jean is unexpectedly forced to go on the run with her child when an associate of Eddie tells her that things have gone very wrong and they must flee right away.

It seems Eddie is more than a simple petty crook and has upset the wrong people resulting in Jean being forced into hiding. Her protector Cal (Arinze Kene); offers few answers about Eddie’s fate but tells Jean that the danger is very real.

The fact that Cal is African American and driving a white woman and her baby around in the 1970s does raise some eyebrows and makes keeping a low profile even harder. This results in Cal setting Jean and her son up in a home with instructions to not speak with nor befriend anyone and to only plug in the phone and call a number should danger arise.

What follows is a steadily paced film that does not fall on the usual Hollywood tropes of extended action scenes and chases as Jean attempts to stay alive and get away from the danger that has taken over her life.

The film is a departure from her Mrs. Maisel character and it is refreshing to see an interesting story that is content to move at a steady pace and develop characters versus the need to insert an action scene in every 10 minutes.

The cast and story are engaging and the film makes for a very entertaining watch and one well worth a look.

4 stars out of 5

Interesting dramatic turn for Rachel Brosnahan after her acclaimed comedy role in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, but I definitely think it wasn't the right movie for her.

It reminded me a lot of John Cassavetes' Gloria, although clearly the differences are quite palpable, after all the character's journey here is to teach herself to fend for herself now that she's in a dangerous situation, however it takes a long time for the film gain traction.
Almost the entire first half hour had me intrigued, but not in a good way, but because I didn't know what the hell the story was trying to do.

What I liked was the narrative of self-discovery the main character goes through, because she learns that she's not a defenseless being and must see for herself and the baby, but considering the story is also imbued with elements of a thriller, this aspect of the narrative gets quite relegated, because there's the clear tension of the persecution, but it never feels like they're in real danger, but that they are being persecuted by a flock of incompetents.

Functional in most of its execution, and entertaining if you have nothing to see in the weekend, but ultimately it will become a forgettable experience.

Female empowerment also passes through becoming wives and mothers on a par with their hitmen husbands: I wouldn't be so enthusiastic about it.

Waste of time. More film school project than complete film. Characters were poorly developed. Plot was erratic. The only point of the movie was that she couldn't cook. I just wanted it to be over.

Very good. I just wish they’d gotten the ensemble together sooner, we spend too much time just listening to Harry cry. Other than that the pacing it’s good, things escalate at the right time and there’s just enough information vs mystery toVery good. I just wish they’d gotten the ensemble together sooner, we spend too much time just listening to Harry cry. Other than that the pacing it’s good, things escalate at the right time and there’s just enough information vs mystery to guess what might happen next but you’re always a little bit wrong so it keeps you guessing.

Rachel and Marsha have GREAT chemistry, but I can’t help but think that Teri’s story is a bit more interesting than Jean’s. Does Jean have a wardrobe that matches each safe house?? Looks good but it’s a bit odd.
