once I often looked at this with pleasure, now I don't understand why, I don't like it anymore

I've been watching this movie for a long time now. I used to think it was very bland but this time I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. I even really liked it. Despite the fact that Diane Keaton is in it because that often annoys me when I see her in a movie.

I thought the funniest character was Goldie Hawn. It's amazing how she makes fun of the image that exists of her. Especially the scenes where she walked around with full lips were very funny.

By the way, this film is quite a while ago because Heather Locklear and Sarah Jessica Parker here play the young green leaves for the old goats, but they now see those roles pass by. They are now a bit in the "The First Wivesclub" age phase.

It's a fun feel-good movie. You just enjoy watching the ladies take revenge on their (upcoming) ex-husbands. Even the last scene in which they dance across the streets singing was something I liked. However exaggerated it may be, it was part of the overall picture.

Mediocre film about three women who start a club in order to put their ex-husbands in the spotlight. A nice touch for a comedy like this one. Certainly some entertaining moments, but it sinks in in between and the whole introduction is too long. The nice cast and ending can't quite save the whole thing unfortunately.
