Cinema Slut #2019 - What Men Want


For Empire star Taraji P. Henson she was staying out of the headlines despite Jussie Smollett dominating the headlines. For Taraji she has long been the queen of Empire the diamond in the pack of the Fox show.

Cookie Lyon is one hell of a character and Ali Davis (Henson's lead) in What Men Want is a force to reckon with.

Along side Henson is Ariana's ex Pete Davidson, Erykah Badu, Silicon Valley's Josh Berner and a load more talented folk, even Shaq O Neil pops by.



This had a few laugh out loud moments, however it's feel good nature and fun approach to relationships made this a highly enjoyable Saturday night at the pictures!

What Men Want is a throwback to the 200 film What Women Want starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt. Honestly I vaguely remember this film but Mel has nothing on Taraji, her fashion, her sass and her on scene dominance is something else. It's the reason why Empire  is Fox's number two drama.

Along with some great scenes, the music dominates this film with hits by TLC, En Vogue, Salt N Pepa and Jill Scott.

What Men Want is a fun night out with a capital F, date night movie tick, feel good film tick and general all round decent night out flick tick, 4 Stars.
