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

I like how men behave in the film. Unlike many other films, men in this film are weak, selfish and to some degree quite true. The idea of robots does not make too much sense to me but it looks like a practical way to solve the problem of men. I also like the way how tradition is presented in the film and the AOL joke.

What does it take to become a Stepford wife, a woman perfect beyond belief? Ask the Stepford husbands, who've created this high-tech terrifying little town, in a very modern comedy-thriller.This film is notorious for the numerous production problems that occurred throughout its shooting schedule. The tension started when both John and Joan Cusack, originally slated to star in supporting roles, pulled out of the project and were replaced by Matthew Broderick and Bette Midler, respectively. After filming was initially completed, several changes were made to the new script, which created a number of plot holes, and the cast was called back for reshoots. Nicole Kidman was reportedly so dissatisfied with the new screenplay that she considered pulling out of the project.And, indeed, it just has no punch. The original film, like it or not, is a cultural touchstone and really served a purpose. The remake seems to have no purpose, and although it has a few good qualities -- the attempt to make it a comedy rather than a social horror tale -- it just seems flat. Amazingly, despite overwhelmingly bad reviews, it was praised by Roger Ebert. Maybe he saw a different film.The potential was there, but something went horribly wrong. This is a film that could possibly be considered "so bad it's good", but even that might be giving it too much credit because it is not nearly that much fun.

Love the interesting view of the director and actors play.This movie have particular atmosphere and character to it.I like best of all all the movie effects an other features of this little town.I would watch it again. As I just enjoy the different angles this movie shows to the viewer.It could be not as much as fan to see it again, too bad, but I like it anyway.I've been waiting for this since the last Kidman movie came out. It was a great film, for me it would have been enough to watch it a little.Sadly movie took a unusual turn and a step back in many regards. I didn't got the CD yet, but I think in my opinion it would be a good DVD for collection.
