It was a great premise. Taking some great current talent and putting them in a comedy classic. Should have been rewritten by some gay men, or at least repeated word for word from the original.. If you haven't seen it, catch the original It was a great premise. Taking some great current talent and putting them in a comedy classic.

Great cast, some great scenes, some great lines, some laughs. Not a great movie, but certainly not the worst I've ever seen.

To remake such a classic as The Women (1939) is not a good idea. You could never ever equal the cast of the original. It's not as bad though as the reviews I have been reading, the basic story is good and hard to mess up. But, it is so To remake such a classic as The Women (1939) is not a good idea. You could never ever equal the cast of the original. It's not as bad though as the reviews I have been reading, the basic story is good and hard to mess up. But, it is so pale in comparison to the original. Annette Bening is good, as is Cloris Leachman. I did enjoy most of it, but it compelled me to watch the original.… Expand
