” Davis played by Taraji P. Henson. Ali works as a successful sports agent but is often pushed aside by her male colleagues. After she is passed over for a promotion, her boss explains that it was because she does not connect well with men. Angered by this, Ali announced that she would sign up-and-coming player Jamal, played by Shane Paul. At a friend’s party, Ali met a psychic called Sister, played by Erykah Badu, who gives Ali a concoction. The following day, Ali discovers that she can now hear the thoughts of men around her. The film follows Ali on her hilarious journey as she uses her newly gained powers to succeed in a male dominated career.

Taraji P. Henson gives a good performance as Alison and has great comedic timing. Erykah Badu also gives a hilarious performance.
Analysis
“What Men Want” is a simple comedy film without any complex sub-plots. The humor is good but the film feels boring after some time.
What’s There?
• The film has a lot of humor
• The film also has a romance arc
What’s Not There?
• The humor is clichéd and banal
• The film has some vulgar and raunchy scenes
• The protagonist is selfish and annoying
Verdict
The film had a good concept but could not fulfill it. The film was held back by raunchy and clichéd humor, and vulgar language. Taraji P. Henson performs well but her character seems selfish and a misandrist because of her horrible treatment of the men around her. The film might be a good watch for comedy, drama enthusiasts.
