What Men Want is a 2019 comedy movie that stars Taraji P. Henson as Ali. The movie is about a lady that works in a men's-dominated organization, and she was always sidelined whenever they were doing anything in the office, including a promotion. Because of this, she was determined to succeed in the men's world no matter what.

At a friend's bachelorette party, she was introduced to a psychic called Sister. She told her she wanted her to help her connect with men well, and Sister gave her a tea to drink. After that she and her friends drank and danced, and Ali was knocked out from drinking too much and became unconscious. When she woke up in the hospital, she heard the thought of the doctor attending to her, but she wasn't sure. While she and her assistant were in the car driving, she spoke to him, and he replied in his mind, and she heard his thoughts. She freaked out, but later realized that it was just men who thought she could hear.

They went looking for the psychic and tracked her down. Ali told her about her new ability and how she wants it to go away, but their psychic convinces her that her newfound ability is an asset. Ali had a change of mind after her conversation with Sister and decided to use her ability. She used her ability and learned about a poker game that would be attended by her colleagues and showed up there uninvited, and beat them to their game.

My review
I don't know if it's just me, but I love every movie Taraji P. Henson stars in. I love the way she acts; I love how she makes every role she performs look seamless and real. Be it comedy or drama, she does it so perfectly; she is just too good. All the cast did absolutely well too 😄

Imagine waking up one day and you can hear the thoughts of the other gender—mind-blowing, right? But I don't think I want to be in such a position; I think I would run mad with all the things I would hear. But I love how the movie gave us a glimpse of what goes on in a man's head; it was really hilarious and disgusting at the same time.

I had a good laugh at different scenes, mostly where she and a guy are staring at each other while the guy thinks he's talking to himself alone in his head and doesn't know he's conversing with her.

God is so wise in His ways that He didn't make us hear other people's thoughts; if He had, a lot of people would have been dead by now, myself included.

Recommendation

The movie is highly enjoyable but I won't recommend it for family time with kids because most of the mens thought were sex related or how hot ones body is but if you need something to laugh and released some of those stress then you can go for it.

Rating
I would rate it 3.5/5 because i enjoyed every part of it .

THANK YOU FOR READING TO THE END 🤗
