What Women Want - Thursday 26th September 2024

I like Mel Gibson. He’s a brilliant filmmaker; one of the best in fact. His persona as an actor is also thoroughly charming and likeable.
I remember when this film came out, and I remember purposefully avoiding it. It looked sh!t, and romcoms weren’t my thing.

Fast forward a few decades, and films are in such a dire state that a sh!t film from the 90s is now considered decent (in comparison to modern movies).
Well, most of the time anyway.

This film was still pretty bad. The characters, the character arc, the chemistry between the actors, not to mention the story… yeah, none of it was really my cup of tea.
There are plenty of trashy romcoms from the 90s that you’re better off watching before getting to this one, even if you are a fan of ol’ Mel.
