Don't waste your time.

I was excited about this movie when I first heard of it, mostly because it takes place in Seattle which is where I was born and raised. However, if I could go back in time and not watch this movie, I would. The cinematography is incredibly repetitive. It's actually almost comically repetitive. The drone shots are massively overused. It's clearly a low budget film, although that's not the problem. I'm sure if literally any other director was given the same budget, they could've made a movie a thousand times better. Rose Kreider (the director) thinks she left the audience with a clever cliffhanger, but it comes off like she just doesn't know how to finish a story. The movie is almost tolerable within the first 5-10 minutes and then it just becomes increasingly boring and repetitive. I wish I could give this movie 0 stars instead of 1.

I love the woman

I love the way this movie was shot. The camera quality and locations were amazing. The actors and actress where good and, believeable. The cliffhanger was great. They can definitely make a part 2 of "The Women" if they wanted too. I was really impressed to find out that this was Rose's first movie she's ever created. I had the privilege of interviewing her on my podcast "The Peoples Choice Podcast" episode 71 as we discuss what motivated her to create "The Woman" also, finding out that she created the whole movie on $1000 budget that was super impressive because, of how great it came out. Not knowing that you could have easily thought this was a big budget film. Sky is the limit for Rose Kreider I'm so excited to see what the future holds for her in the film making industry she's definitely going places and fast!

Open to personal interpretation

I enjoyed this short feature and have watched (and re-watched) it a few times to see new things with each viewing. I'm a sucker for drone footage, I just am, and there was solid drone footage within the generally crisp cinematography. The cast is very diverse in terms of their acting experience, sociocultural backgrounds, and on-screen dynamics. I found the mom's monologue a bit long for my taste, but the flow and balance of the film was quite good. There were some fun elements of humor mixed in with the drama and angst. I can see how some may want more as the film ends, maybe I did too, but that seems to be the point. When I consider the movie through the lens of being welcomed to fill in some of the future story in my own mind, it's a pretty satisfying movie and I expect more to come.

For Those Who Wonder if "The Woman" is Worth Watching

Rose Kreider's first film, "The Woman" was probably the most anticipated movie of the year 2022. But is it any good? The movie is based in and around Seattle during Winter, so prepare to see a bunch of warm coats! It features 4 characters and 2 main characters who bring the story to life and a handful of different and versatile locations. Noah is an art student tying to find his way in life and it's intriguing to watch his life journey. It definitely brings you out of your element. He knows nothing about his life as a child and finds answers during the heightened eclipse in the i middle that grasps your attention (and heart) and I felt the ending was clever enough and leaves to interpretation of the viewer how they wish for it to end and end his journey, so to speak. A MUST SEE Seattle film on TUBI TV!

Awesome debut film!

I can tell you, that for the first film Ms. Kreider has created, it is very well done. With the minimal budget she used, the finished product turned out quite well. It is an independent film but many aspects are on par with the major features. Room for improvement? Sure. Ms. Kreider will only get better and better with each film she produces and directs. Keep an eye out for her. She will be a mover and a shaker!

The drone shots were especially effective in establishing the locale and the general mood of the story. The acting was great and the ending made sense to the story. Did I wish there was more? Sure. That's the testament of a good tale. Definitely recommend this movie and this director!
