I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

A different way of telling a story

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

I can't believe all these bad reviews! This movie is awesome. I won't say anymore than that. All of these women that are leaving bad reviews are most likely feminists that have no sense of humour

So I watched both versions of the Stepford Wives back to back. And, of course the original is better but not for obvious reasons. Basically the newer version is a wannabe Tim Burton movie that fails on all levels.So yeah, by my introduction you can tell I wasn't a fan. At least the girls are pretty to look at, as ironic as that happens to be considered the fact this film should have more substance because it covers heavy topics like gender equality, domestic slavery and what not. The film falls flat because it has zero depth. It is also annoying in how it tries to make both men and women happy. But the biggest sin of all is that it is an unfunny comedy.

Have you seen it? No? There is likely a very good reason for that...it stinks.Like nearly ALL the endless remakes and reboots that have been plaguing movie goers for the past decade or so....all this is, is a heartless version of the original.It has no heart.It has no soul.It is a retelling of a film that we all love and cherish...and it adds nothing to the story. It improves nothing but the special effects--which held up very well over time--and in some cases belittles the fans of the original...particularly in the fact that they remade the movie at all, without adding anything clever to it.Like so many other remakes it is a hallow shell of the original.

This is my old review: The Stepford Wives (2004) was a surprise to me, the trailer really did intrigue me, but the actual movie was laughable. I was a big fan of almost every cast member, including Glenn Close, Nicole Kidman, Matthew Broderick, and of course Bette Midler. The cast member's performances were pretty good, not Oscar worthy by any means, but still pretty good fit the kind of movie it was. Some scenes were funny, including the scene with the wive's book club. Let me just say that for me personally, Bette Midler was the best part of this entire movie, by far. The script was kinda lackluster and poor, and some of the jokes were just bad, and didn't work. I would've liked a little less comedy and a little more seriousness. The look of the film was good, the shots and costume design and sets all looked very good. Overall, the movie was just a little too silly for my personal taste. So would I recommend The Stepford Wives (2004)? No. It's not worth your time, there are much better movies out there to enjoy. After re watching it: I liked a lot of the jokes better, the comedy works, I found myself laughing so much the 2nd time I watched it. It was a lot more entertaining this time, and I had fun watching it, it's a comedic, cute, interesting film. My NEW rating: 7/10
