Product: What Women Want [VHS] (2000)
Rating: 3.0
Cute movie...better to rent than buy
I was really excited about this movie when I first saw the theatrical trailer and billed it as a must see for me. I am the type who likes some mysteries, romantic comedies, cute little movies that entertain me but that do not make me think too much. This movie accomplished just that.I enjoyed watching Helen Hunt and Mel Gibson side by side as they had the kind of chemistry to make a romance feasible. Mel Gibson's character starts out as the typical ladies man who uses all kinds of lines to get women into bed with him and thinks that he is god's gift to women. After a life changing experience, he is able to actually hear what women are thinking and it leads him to realize that every woman doesn't want him. It makes him a little more sensitive in some situations, although he uses this newfound ability to manipulate his new boss.I actually found myself laughing out loud at this cute little movie, but it may be funnier when rented on video/DVD. I'm not sure if I would watch it again and again. However, if you like harmless romantic comedies and want to be entertained and laugh a bit, this one may be for you.
