The Woman in Red Audience Reviews

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
ad-12514 Wilder should have avoided this damn poor american remake of a classic french movie "un éléphant ça trompe énormément", made with legendary actors. wilder's movie is a total steal, yet, he succeeded at making it unfunny, boring, it's a total disrespect to the original movie and the actors aren't good. What ? Americans can't read subtitles ? they're so closed to the exterior of America ? how many movies did they steal and make lame in the end ..... countless. the only thing good in it is the sexy Kelly le brock.
adonis98-743-186503 On his way to work, Teddy spots Charlotte - an incredibly beautiful Woman in Red. He really wants to meet her - but what would his wife say? Gene Wilder makes his 4th attempt as a director in The Woman in Red and the conclusion is a smart, silly and very funny comedy about a man who fells in love with a woman in a red dress although i got to say this movie wasn't as good as See No Evil, Hear No Evil cause that one had a great chemistry this one does work mostly because of Gene Wilder's charisma and talent and Kelly LeBrock is not in the film as much as she should her character is in couple of scenes and during the 3rd act the film kinda looses it's focus and tries to tell the story of other characters as well for example Charles Grodin and Teddy trying to tell him a joke or going into an unexpected birthday party and stuff like that and although the ending was silly cause he fall in love with another woman i found the film still being pretty nice not great but it definitely gets an 9 out of 10 just for Wilder being really really funny and that scene in restaurant when Grodin was acting like he was blind and he started tearing the place apart that was hilarious but still a weak 3rd act but a pretty good film overall.
Jess ica What would his wife say? hmmm... let me think about that... what a thoughtful question. I'm guessing that she would probably say something along the lines of.... "Husband, you are an idiot and a complete loser. And... I want a divorce. Thanks for nothing." Thank god we have movies like this so we can see other people act completely immature and as impulsive as a two year that still sits in their feces until someone else changes their diaper. How sad it is that millions of people watch this garbage and begin to believe that it is suppose to be so funny to watch a sad pathetic man obsess over a complete stranger because he is frantically air humping at the thought of banging a woman he doesn't know, and lets not forget the "red" dress fetish.
MARIO GAUCI Gene Wilder's third (and penultimate) film as star-director is also his most consistent effort – albeit one that was a remake of a successful French original, i.e. Yves Robert's PARDON MON AFFAIRE (1977). Wilder ideally casts himself as a happily-married advertising agent whose chance 'encounter' with the stunning title character (portrayed by débutante Kelly LeBrock, a former model and future Mrs. Steven Seagal!) in an underground parking-lot thrusts him into a frenzied, amusing series of amorous complications. Aiding Wilder in his clumsy extramarital travails are his three buddies – gay Charles Grodin (his 'blind man routine' is side-splitting), married but perpetually horny Joseph Bologna and rotund Michael Huddleston – all of whom have their own sentimental troubles to contend with. To makes matters worse for Wilder, ugly duckling office colleague Gilda Radner mistakes his attentions for Le Brock to have been intended for her and goes through several physical and emotional changes in her quest to please her 'man' and, after realizing her error, hilariously takes sweet revenge on the understandably bewildered {sic} Wilder. Complimenting all the above quite nicely is Stevie Wonder's song score that, not only features duets with Dionne Warrick, but is highlighted by the Oscar-winning "I Just Called To Say I Love You".
