The Stepford Wives Reviews
December 17, 2020
The fear of women's economic and social power also never went away, and the remake's attempt to distance itself from something that's neither vintage nor remote raises the question of what, exactly, we were meant to find relevant about it.

It feels mostly like a merely functional film that misses the opportunity to be something special.

An abject lesson in how to dehumanize a classic movie... Suspenseful horror and the subtle socio-political critique of feminism have been discarded in favor of slapstick comedy and haughty cleverness.

Sometimes, improvements aren't always necessary whether that be for romantic partners or for a film.

That razor edge is completely gone from the remake of The Stepford Wives. It's a comedy and no one gets really hurt.

It glides by on the notion that there is little that is still frightening about being an American woman. I wish I could say it was a premise whose time had come.

Comedic remake of '70s horror movie has sex humor.

There's not a single redeeming feature in this colossal over-budgeted waste of time...

In 1975, The Stepford Wives ... seemed creepy and socially relevant. Today, it just feels dull.

Absent the suspense and satirical thrust of its predecessor, The Stepford Wives is a star-studded, soft-centered piece of whimsy
Original Score: 2.5/5
