Seeing that the women she surrounds herself with all seem to be cut from the same mold, and are seemingly incapable of thinking for themselves, Joanna begins to think something suspicious is going on in Stepford. Upon realizing that her friends have been replaced by robots and that she's next on the list, Joanna and Walter decide to turn the tables and expose the truth about what's really been going on in Stepford. Reader Reviews I know this is tecnically supposed to be a suspense/weird horror type of film disguised as something clean and pure. However, in that respect, it fails. There is nothing horrifying, shocking, or mysterious about it. On the other hand, it does have an interesting premise, even though everyone knows its a remake. Its sort of cooky and weird, but in the comical sense, it somewhat works. Better Midler is quite good in this. She really brings that extra bit of humour to this film. Nicole does an admirable job, as usual, portraying a non-housewife. And not an inkling of aussie accent. She can do anything really. This movie is by no means great or anything remotely like it. But it is amusing at times and for some reason always makes me feel light-hearted after watching it. I never saw the original, but have heard that this is a poor replicate. However, if you have not seen the original, like myself, for what it is, its alot of fun.
