A good movie

I have noticed that this movie has a rather lame reputation. Indeed, according to Imdb, it is in fact the worst movie ever directed by Robert Altman, even worse than ‘Prêt-à-Porter’ or ‘Popeye’. Well, I have to admit it, it has been a while since I have seen this flick and maybe I should check it out again at some point but I thought it was not bad at all. Indeed, I even enjoyed the damned thing. I mean, sure, as pointed out by Roger Ebert, Richard Gere was probably the least convincing gynecologist ever put on the screen but I think he was not bad here. Above all, there was a very interesting female cast involved (Helen Hunt, Farrah Fawcett, Laura Dern, Tara Reid, Kate Hudson, Liv Tyler).  Eventually, it was all rather fluffy and, according to some, even rather misogynist, but, in my opinion, it was supposed to make fun of the so-called difficult life of all these rich white women and I though it worked fairly well. To conclude, even though it was definitely not one of the best movies delivered by Robert Altman, I thought it was still a decent watch and I think it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in this great American director.
