It probably won't be until the human race evolves into asexual beings that we will we know what women really want.  Do Women know what they really want?  I mean they always give the impression they're fine, nothing is wrong, but then can completely turn around and say what they mean and feel.  It's a woman's perogative to change her mind afterall?  right?  oh boy!  :)

When Nick (Mel Gibson), a sexist womanising advertising executive has a rather bizarre accident while wearing a few "feminine" products he undergoes a life altering experience that enables him to hear the inner thoughts of anyone or anything female.  
His boss Dan (Alan Alda) just screwed him over for promotion by hiring hotshot ad exec Darcy (Helen Hunt) and Nick decided to use his new-found power to its limit by listening in on Darcy's thoughts and ideas and use them against her to bring her down!! 

All goes well and Nick is on the up, while Darcy is on the down.  Problem is Nick gets to know the real Darcy and is pretty soon conflicted. 
To make matters worse, poor 'ol womanising Nick discovers to his horror that all the women who cross his path hate him, as so does his somewhat estranged teenage daughter Alex (Ashley Johnson)

VIDEO
Well ya know, for such a new, and big budget movie I was expecting a first rate transfer.   This Anamorphic Widescreen Transfer is nice, but i've seen better.   Sharpness ranges from spot on to just a wee bit soft, and image depth is too flat overall.  The Level is black is also a bit low for the most part and you lose some shadow detail most notibly in people's clothing (the blacks sink into each other and as a result you miss out on that nice fine layering) 
Colour saturation is also a little overdone, with fleshtones taking on a pinky/orange look (i understand this transfer was sourced from an interpostive, which do tend to make things a little pinker than normal, but that's the nature of the beast :). 

AUDIO
The Audio certainly won't let you down.  The default Dolby Digital 5.1 mix is surprisingly active for what is at the end of the day another romantic comedy.   Dialogue is always intellegable, even if on occasions a little ADR sounding, but musically it's very very much alive and for once an Alan Silvestri score which didn't sound like another homage to Predator :) 
The surrounds get a nice workout, both musically and sound FX wise. (love the thunder and rain stop.  on a trival note, was it me or did that clap of thunder during the movie sound veeeery much like the thunder used over the Icon Pictures trailer ..hmmmmmm
Also included for your listening pleasure is a Dolby 2.0 mix.  it's good, but not as dynamic or as detailed as it's bigger and better 5.1 brother.

EXTRAS
A nice compliment indeed.

The animated menus are great, some snazzy little spinning icons can be found on the Special Features menu and there is also sound bits from the movie (in Dolby 5.1, with surrounds in mono)
