Review – The Stepford Wives (2004)

I didn’t expect this picture to be quite as silly as it turned out to be. It isn’t that I needed anything quite as grim as the original, but this went a little too far in the opposite direction. The cast does a good job and all, but the script doesn’t give them too much to work with. You just can’t make a movie about men who replace their wives with robots and have it turn out to be this happy. On the other hand, I should confess that thanks to a DVD glitch I missed a little of the character exposition early on. Mildly amusing
