Ao que parece, os realizadores de Mulheres Perfeitas acreditaram que o público seria tão dócil e manipulável quanto as esposas retratadas em sua trama.
07/29/04
There just aren't enough laughs to distract from the vast fault-lines in the story
07/29/04
For better or worse, Stepford Wives is classic Frank Oz. At times ludicrous and stereotypical, but always funny.
07/25/04
With its smart script and dead-on comic performances, it actually works.
07/11/04
Frank Oz has made a career of making comedy out of on-set tensions and his actors' personal anxieties.
07/09/04
As written by Paul Rudnick, who wields one of the cattiest pens in Hollywood, this new version of "The Stepford Wives" suggests he might want to try a fresh pot of ink.
07/06/04
This version quickly falls in and out of form, deviating from comedy to thriller...losing the social significance of the original.

A confused production, replete with weak jokes and embarrassing stereotypes, earn the film one star, but I'll throw in an extra half star for Kidman's engaging performance.
06/29/04
Oz’s toothless vehicle is never able to capture the dark humor of its calculated convictions...has no apparent rhyme or reason to its meandering madness
06/26/04
The Stepford Wives willingly dispenses with a strong conceit in its unbridled urge to be ridiculous, taken here as a synonym of "entertaining."
06/26/04
To paraphrase Paul Rudnick's Premiere magazine movie-critic alter ego, Libby Gelman-Waxner: It's flat, cold, fork-resistant and tasteless, if you ask me.
06/24/04
Top CriticThere's little here that isn't hedged... [Oz and Rudnick] shoot wide; by wishing not to offend, they actually manage the job.
06/24/04
The cast is mostly strong and its clumsy charms substantial -- enough to make this flawed cautionary tale worth watching, as long as your expectations aren't too high.
06/24/04
It may be about artificiality but that hardly excuses that quality in the storytelling.
06/22/04
Fitting that a horror film from the 70's is now remade as a slightly less scary satire for the new century.
