Movie Reviews of The Stepford Wives (Special Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: Nice Twist at the End
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie had it all. suspense, very good humor, some action but the story line was pretty good. I don't see how some writers didn't get this movie. Exceptional actors I mean like the best stars. And the location was very good. I think the people are really like that in Connecticut lol. Just kidding. But this is a good movie to see and own. I think most will enjoy it. They could have done a better job with the lab scene. But all in all a good movie.Movie Review: Was this really necessary?
Summary: 2 Stars
The original was a very effective, cautionary horror tale. The remake can't seem to make up its mind what it wants to be -- it definitely isn't scary -- and it doesn't include what I thought to be one of the more important bits from the original, the exchange between Katherine Ross' character and the psychiatrist before she gets taken back home and roboticized. I will say the revised ending does add some important food for thought. Movie Review: I think it's great movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Am i alone in thinking it's cool movie? Maybe not whole 5 stars, but still very nice, hilarious and relaxing. Very nice actors: Nicole Kidman and Bette Midler makes this movie very funny.
But really they could have done a much deeper version of this film and it would have been fantastic. Matthew Broderick wasn't a convincing husband for Nicole Kidman - he doesn't look any older than when he was in Ferris Bueller's Day Off! Funny twist at the end, glad we watched it, Bette Midler was funny as ever.
We enjoyed having a night in watching a fun film.
Movie Review: The Stepford Wives Lay an Egg
Summary: 1 Stars
A few days ago I was delighted to learn The Stepford Wives would be shown on cable TV, but I soon realized I was watching a turkey. The opening scene is a heavy handed parody of the Jerry Springer show, and from that point it's downhill all the way.
The plot is weak, the characters inconsistent, and the story incoherent. The production values of casting, costuming and set design are certainly high. But that just makes this movie a pointless, glossy mess.
Movie Review: One of the Worst Remakes Ever...
Summary: 1 Stars
Truly it is. I watched it once, and then just yesterday and it still was painful to watch. Not because of the acting necessarily, although I think Kidman is one lousy actress in any of her films and this one is no exception.
But the story...what happened? Seriously in the beginning it's not so bad. Yet the middle and end begin to terribly fall apart- especially since in one scene they're saying one thing and then saying a completely other thing in another scene. Basically we're pulled along it seems to either the wives being robots like the old film says- and then we're told it was just really chips in their brain making them housewives? And somehow the chips disappear in the end and they become their real selves again? Then they make a real huge twist in the end which I guess I shouldn't give away but is just real tacky I think.
Just...a mess of a film. I don't know what happened, but it really fell apart in no time. If you're interested in the story, then watch the old one- that sticks to their story all the way through very well. This remake though avoid seriously.
1/5
