What Women Want

• Comedy
• Romance

A rapid-fire romantic comedy fueled by a fantastical premise, *What Women Want* explores a cynical advertising executive’s jarring transformation as he gains the ability to hear women’s innermost thoughts. This isn’t simply a comedic power fantasy; it’s a pointed, if sometimes clumsy, dismantling of male perspective and ingrained misogyny, forcing the protagonist to confront his own biases through the cacophony of unfiltered female experience. The film distinguishes itself by centering the narrative on a man actively *listening* – a unique take on the familiar rom-com dynamic – and navigating the genuine vulnerability of understanding the complexities beyond surface attraction, particularly in his evolving relationship with his teenage daughter and his ambitious new boss. The story balances laugh-out-loud moments with genuinely heartwarming scenes as he begins to grasp the emotional lives of the women around him, shifting from exploitation of his “gift” to a path towards self-improvement and authentic connection.
