- Synopsis
- The Women is a comedy about contemporary womanhood and the power of female relationships. Based on George Cukor’s 1939 film and Clare Boothe Luce’s 1936 stage play, The Women whisks us into a busy pocket of Manhattan society, where the publishing, fashion and finance industries play. At the center of the tale is Mary Haines, a thoroughly modern woman suddenly confronted with an age-old dilemma: a cheating husband. The ladies in her life swiftly rally to Mary’s side, led by her best friend, Sylvie Fowler, a dynamic magazine editor. But when Sylvie betrays Mary in a Faustian bargain, the entire group is shaken to the core – and two women face the most painful breakup of all - their friendship.

- Critics' reviews

-
"I was looking forward to 'The Women,' but I could tell from the first scene that this updated remake of the 1939 classic by 'Murphy Brown' creator Diane English - who would seem ideally suited to the job - was a total disaster. (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)."
-
"It's not every movie that makes you wish Vin Diesel would run in and start blowing up stuff."
-
"Think 'Sex and the City' without the sex. (...) it's a major dud. (...) a script that resists being crowbarred into the 21st century. (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)."
