Far be it from me to judge the great Roger Ebert (who has long been an inspiration) but I have to wonder what it is he was thinking when he gave a three star review to the new Meg Ryan fiasco "The Women." He points out that the movie is not great, but then how could it be? There are too many characters to get involved with. Most of the review is simply a checkoff of who the characters are, what they do, and what they could have done more of. And the movie is still three stars. That's a recommendation. I've been reading Ebert reviews for a long time, and this review sounds like a one and a half or two star film. I'd be interested to see why the movie ended up at three, especially now that the movie has received a low 10% on Rotten Tomatoes. That's just ten points up from what "Disaster Movie" got.
