Movie Reviews of 8 Women

Movie Review: Fluffy fun
Summary: 5 Stars

Well, no one said it was supposed to be serious, and it's not. It's just a silly, riotous evening of laughter, some of it so 'out there' that you can't believe you're actually watching it. Cast is loaded with French 'name' actresses, all 8 of them. Full of sidelong glances, over the top cliches, French stereotypes, nut-ball songs and dances - and a murder. Dum-de-dum-dum. With skits and schticks that'll keep you up giggling as you remember them later in bed when you're trying to sleep, and with a setting (remote snowbound country home) that is sure to remind you of some of Agatha Christie's classics, this one is a winner, all the way.

Movie Review: Fresh take on an old plot
Summary: 5 Stars

I really liked this film. It combines musical film with 1950's mystery. It's a fresh take on an old plot. It was also cool to see so many great French actresses in the same movie. Catherine Deneuve, Isabelle Huppert, and Fanny Ardant steal the show, but all eight actresses turned in a nearly flawless performance. There are a lot of family secrets revealed along the way and the intricacies of the characters are played well. The ending is typically European but not an unfamiliar device to American theatre patrons.

Movie Review: A mystery story worthy of Hitchcock
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this movie. It is a thriller/mystery where a murder has been committed and it is plain that it has to be one of 8 women, but who exactly. Everyone appears to have a good reason to have committed the act and the accusations, jealousies and intrigues are rife.

A treat to have some of the very top French actresses all in the same film and the acting is great.

Movie Review: Wonderful! Fantastique!
Summary: 5 Stars

I was hesitant, at first, but being a great fan of Catherine Deneuve and Fanny Ardant, how could I not see this film?!? Once I decided to rent "8 Femmes" I was not disappointed. In fact, I was most pleasantly surprised - the music, too, is a nice bonus. Isabelle Huppert gives a scene-stealing performance, and there is nothing bad to say about this film. See it, and enjoy!

Movie Review: How great women are!
Summary: 5 Stars

Seemingly a French take-off on the classic English Mystery Play format this delightful farce is actually a perfect proof of how great and sexy, women of all ages are (especially French women).

Starring: Catherine Deneuve, Virginie Ledoyen, Ludivine Sagnier, Isabelle Huppert, Danielle Darrieux, Fanny Ardant, Firmine Richard, Emmanuelle Béart.
