Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/10 --
For a film that touts female empowerment and regularly throws around mentions to the "Me Too" movement, What Men Want is a shallow, retrograde workplace comedy that is barely funny.

3 stars out of 5 -- There’s a cosmic rightness to gender-swapping a Mel Gibson sexual politics comedy...
Empire
Certainly the introduction of Taraji P. Henson’s protagonist refreshingly realigns a by-now classic narrative conceit, along with the Atlanta setting within the world of professional sports.

Rating: 1.5/5 --
If you really want to see a romantic comedy go check this out, but if you really want to see Taraji and enjoy yourself go in with low expectations.

Rating: 3/5 --
The plot is predictable to the last programmed giggle. But Henson is pretty terrific; if you can stand comical histrionics done with style while pitched to high C, amplified to triple-f and played by the full personality orchestra.

[What Men Want] feels entirely more rote and uninspired, featuring few elements of genuine creative ambition.

Taraji P.Henson is entertaining but is better than this material. The breakout star though is Erykah Badu.

Tired with getting a lack of recognition in her male dominated career, sports agent Ali Davis (Taraji P. Henson) believes it's finally her turn for a much-needed promotion.

Now with a new love interest (Aldis Hodge) and the potential signing of a new NBA star; is life finally going her way, or is Ali's new ability really a gift or a curse' Directed by Adam Shankman.
