Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Gil_Rinion Just like a woman is a light comedy about a man who lives a secret life as a cross dresser. When it was made the movie was given an "r" rating but besides the taboo nature of the subject of "transvestites" there is nothing in the movie that makes it deserve such a rating. If I was to rate it I would at most, give it a PG-13 rating in America because of the sexual references. Even so, the subject matter is not really dealt with in a serious or overly dramatic way. Since the movie deals with a main character who is a Transvestite one would think that the writers of the movie would try and spend a little more time creating a more specific portrayal. However due to the fact that there are many different types of transvestites and the fact that the story changes and the main character also changes, it can become very confusing to the audience to try and understand what a transvestite is. The story itself is rather simple and the outcome is a little too easy to predict. Overall I thought the film was good. It does provide an interesting look into a way of life that is not accepted by society and how the people feel about themselves and the people around them. If you like simple comedies I would recommend this film.

tub82092 Just Like A Woman is a 1992 British film by Christopher Monger. I like the film because it takes on a certain view which not many people would like to think about. A person who likes to cross-dress refers transvestite. Transvestite is a exist problem even in this modern society. However, public still treats these kinds of people differently and terribly. For example, since Gerald has transvestite, he encounters many problems inside the film. Firstly, his wife discovered female clothes spread over their flat, thus, divorced with him and threw him out of their home without knowing his habit. Secondly, Gerald got fired from company after met his boss on the street during shopping. Thirdly, when Gerald told Monica about his habit, Monica laughed loudly which hurt Gerald's pride. I think the fans of the genre would be satisfied since it includes many different sexuality problems in this film. Also it is difficult to tell and predict the plot and ending because you never know what other problems that Gerald would meet later in the film. Moreover, I like its lighting style and camera angle. When Gerald became to be Geraldine and showed to Monica the first time, the lighting style creates a mysterious mood. Camera shoots different parts of Geraldine's body image, but does not show her face immediately until the last. Besides, since everyone should be treated equally, I think the goal and motivation of the film is that they want to show the society that how these people have being discriminated. I remember that I used to have a neighbor who has a transvestite. After people noticed about his habit, some of the neighbors started to move out since they would feel uncomfortable living in the same building with him. This film tries to tell its audience that people with transvestite seems to be treated unfairly, however, transvestite is just a habit that some people have. For me, the movie does not surprise me since I saw this kind of people before. On the contrary, it persuades me to accept these people. I like the film not only because its technical quality, but also the storyline is really easy to understand. I feel the movie might be appealing for people who have transvestite or homosexual people.

aromatic-2 This one took me by surprise because i had often been disappointed by Adrian Pasdar in the past, but he caught the perfect balance in this performance, avoiding both farce and pathos while delivering humour and real emotions. The always-wonderful Julie Waters is terrific here, and anyone who has not yet scene her in 1983's Educating Rita should rent it immediately (marvelous film). The rest of the supporting characters are well-played as well, many marvelously eccentric without going over the top. This one is fun.

richlieu Somewhat too long and going over the top towards the end, this comedy is an utterly delightful, never condescending or ridiculing look into the problems of a "power man", who likes to wear women´s clothes at nite.Julie Walters is lovely as always, but Adrian Pasdar is utterly credible and steals the film. He (she)is absolutely gorgeous in high heels and silk stockings.
