Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Not only is it banal in a kitchen sink way, it's just a reiteration of the same argument.
Subtle as a mugging and gleefully outrageous, "The Woman'' is a feminist parable disguised as a sicko midnight horror movie.
Rewards your endurance with an utterly insane 30-minute climax of violence, audacious gore and all-around bad behavior.
The characters and the audience alike will have to endure much misery and a ham-fisted illustration of gender dynamics, offered up as an especially cockeyed comedy of manners...
