What Men Want- Not what anyone wants

03/07/2019

What Men Want (2019) was directed by Adam Shankman and stars Taraji P. Henson as a woman who works in a sports office with a bunch of men. She is clearly the best worker there yet she still is denied the manager position there. She then decides to go to someone to get some advice. After drinking a mysterious tea, she wakes up with the power to read mens minds. I'll give the movie this, the premise of the movie was smart. Yet, it wasn't done well at all. This power most of the time lead to unintelligent jokes. The movie is packed with star actors, yet none of them made a lasting impression on me. I found myself saying, "Wow that could have been funny if it was done differently", multiple times throughout the film. Comedy in the movie was moving towards shock factor for laughs then actual smart comedy. I actually found myself trying to stay awake throughout this one.
