    This raunchy metaphor for the battle between the sexes from Mad Max director George Miller soars with inspired lunacy as three romance-starved suburban women dabble in off-white magic for some offbeat chandelier swinging. While Jack Nicholson dominates this spellbinding adaptation of John Updike's ironic bestseller as the horny little devil, the luminous female talent (Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer) almost matches him in a charming sensual fantasy that's slightly overloaded with needless special effects.
