I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This all female cast creates a groundbreaking hilarious film. Numerous women all get intertwined together in a series of scandals and divorces. All the actresses are great and play their roles very well. They all have their very own distinct personalities that fit them to perfection. Its easy to relate to almost any female. When they discuss the color "jungle red" as the "newest color" it sounds like my very own nail salon telling me all about their new products. It is still comparable to even modern day society even when this movie was created in 1939. The "trials and tribulations" that these women go through throughout the movie is still what some women face in their own towns and husbands. This is a great whirlwind of comedy and it is sure to brighten almost anyone's day.

I loved seeing an all female cast where men were talked about but never seen. I found that very clever. That also could be symbolic of the fact that men (for these women) are always on the minds of women or at the center of women's existence whether they are physically present or not. I do wish that the topic or theme of the film was not about marriage or men. But as a topic the film did bring up interesting points. Like wether or not to stay with a man if he cheats. It's interesting though that in either case, whether the woman stays in the relationship or leaves, its seen as her fault (in the film). It's her fault he cheated because she wasn't enough and it's her fault for getting a divorce when she could just stay in the relationship. Besides that point I don't see what else the film was trying to say. Again, I love the female cast but the topic of the film was so bland to me that I couldn't bring myself to really enjoy it. Side-note: it was weird that the fashion show scene was in color but the rest of the film was in black and white.

I thought this movie was very very interesting and I had never seen a movie like it before I have watched this one. I found it very interesting that it not only portrayed women in its entirety but it was completely cast by women. I feel for the time that this movie came out, this was huge seeing how women did not seem to have as equal of an opportunity as men did growing up and even throughout their lives they could be subject to unfair treatment. One scene I was not a fan of in the movie was the fashion show. One thing I find to like in every film is consistency throughout the film. If the movie is black and white I like it to stay black and white throughout the film. I do understand it is different for the time this movie came out but for such a great film this is one thing I did not like. Aside from that I thought this was a very interesting movie and I really did like it even though I was skeptical going into it

this film(if you can call it that) is by far the most boring thing if watched, and I once watched paint dry! I know everyone has their own opinion and... art is subjective. this is the kind of thing you can find on one of those channels that pander exclusively to middle age women. to put it plainly this is a bitch film. a bunch of women nagging each other to death, usually over some man. if you watch LMN than this is you classic movie. but, if you prefer a conflict that doesn't revolve around trivial matters of the heart that are as complex as a straight line of yarn, then avoid this one at all costs. oh, I just know someone is gonna get peeved of with this review. despite it being a review.
