    Best chick flick this year bar sex and the city

    This was a wonderful remake of the 1939 classic. And as in the original you never see one man in the movies - though they seem to be the main subject. If you like sex and the city and intelligent lively rom coms then this is for you. It boasts a great cast with some famous cameos. Bette Midler please stand up. Some tear jerking moments about friendship between women and the adorable debra messing scene stealing as the pregnant friend. The birth scene will bring back a few memories. Well worth a watch.

    The Women

    The Women was absolutely terrible why bother with remakes when you cant top the black and white version of the Women. Please filmakers leave classics alone they dont need to be re-made.
