Having difficulty with their marriage, an attractive woman by the name of "Jodi Davison" (Donna Mills) is convinced by her friend "Caroline Knox" (Cindy Williams) to pressure her husband "Mick Davison" (Michael Ontkean) to move to the quiet town of Stepford, Connecticut where they can start all over again. Along with that, being a struggling novelist, Mick is having problems collecting his thoughts due to all of the noise where they currently live in New York City and Jodi is hopeful the more peaceful atmosphere of Stepford will help soothe his increasingly irritable mood. However, once they move, Mick finds it difficult to find any male friends because--except for his next-door neighbor "Gordon" (Jeffrey Pillars)--all of the men there seem extremely passive and dull. Then one day, Gordon also changes--and everyone in town now become focused on Mick. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that I wasn't expecting too much from this made-for-television movie but, when I noticed that it featured Donna Mills in a leading role, I figured I would give it a chance. Admittedly, most of the scenarios had all been done before in the three previous Stepford films, but even so, I was somewhat surprised at how well the plot developed all the same. I especially liked the performances of the main actors with Louise Fletcher (as "Miriam Benton") and the aforementioned Donna Mills probably standing out the most. That said, although this wasn't a great film by any means, I found it to be worth the time spent and I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Not as believable or relevant as the first, with wooden acting and a finale that suggests the writer just got bored and did his best to wrap it up quickly so he could go to lunch. The "turnabout is fair play" tactic could have been handled intelligently, but this is not that movie. For die-hard stepford fans only. For others, stick to the original and the "revenge" sequel.

Anything with Donna Mills is worth a few hours. Sure, the story is lame, but then, how many stories in the movies these days are either solid or original? Sometimes we just have to have a light, entertaining movie without any deeper meaning. Look at Mission Impossibles!
