Without Men(from a man's perspective)

I truly do not understand the negativity towards this film at all, itdosen't deserve such a low rating. The premise of an entire town ofwomen is carried out pretty well, I can see how some might be offendedby the female characters not being able to read or wanting to do work,but if you can look past that, you'll see a charming, witty(funniestpart for me was the women learning the joys of masturbation),lighthearted film with warm and likable characters, the relationshipbetween Eva and Castillo is truly beautiful and heartwarming. There'salso some interesting social commentary and female customs, forexample, the women decide to make up their own time of 28 suns insteadof 30 days(to go along with a women's cycle), the male performers do anadequate job, though their shortsided(understandable given thepremise)Oscar Nunez is a hoot as the impotent priest and Slater doeswell enough as the straight man, all in all this film was a verypleasant surprise and I would highly recommend it.

Wonderful entertainment

Get your friends, get your popcorn and simply sit back and relax. Thefilm is lighthearted, funny and vivacious, Eva Longoria shows she canindeed carry a movie, Christian Slater is so charismatic and especiallyFernanda Romero sticks out in the cast. A new star is born. A townwithout men bares its challenges an when even the priest fails to keepthe women in line and his fertility is an issue, you know you are infor an interesting ride. Tagliavini proves herself as a savvyscreenwriter AND director both, sticks close to the book, yet gives itsown strength and colors. The cinematography is stunning...matched bywonderful score. All in all simply a movie to love.
