Sinopsis(1)
En los años cincuenta, en una gran mansión burguesa en pleno campo se están haciendo los preparativos para festejar la Navidad, cuando se produce un drama: el dueño de la casa es asesinado. Ocho mujeres cercanas a la víctima están presentes, y forzosamente una de ellas es la culpable. Comienza entonces una larga jornada de investigación, jalonada de discusiones, traiciones y revelaciones, en la que no tardará en saberse que cada una de ellas tiene sus razones y guarda secretos insospechados. La verdad estallará, cruel y trágica, y acabará con las máscaras y las mentiras. (Filmin)

Unforgettable performances with an excellent twist that, even if you know it, won't spoil the experience of watching all those ladies even on a second viewing. And a third, a fourth, a fifth...

Without the great performances by the actors and a fairly interesting execution, this film probably wouldn't dazzle as much. The actresses were the main focus, and you enjoy watching them because they're just great, and you don't really care much about what they're doing because the film isn't that great, script-wise, I mean. But it has working musical numbers, which I wasn't expecting.

A comic detective musical set in a big house. That’s a brief and accurate description of Ozon’s 8 Women. Unlike many other musicals, the story here is not unimportant. On the contrary, this is a great detective story in the spirit of Agatha Christies works. It has great momentum and excellent rising suspense. The musical interludes are ingenious, albeit sometimes rather forcibly included. 8 Women relies mostly on the female acting performances. And the cast is probably the very best France can offer. P.S.: Absolutely has to be seen in the original French language version!

Wow! I don't know how much of an original spectacle 8 Women is, but it's definitely worth seeing. Eight women are locked in a luxurious mansion, the snow prevents them from leaving, and the only man lies on his stomach with a dagger in his back. François Ozon managed to make the absolute most of the subject matter. What should have been boring for half an hour of the film, in which one woman accuses another, constantly escalates to dizzying heights. Ozon had me wondering who the killer was until the final minutes. I was forming a certain theory throughout the entire film, but after ten minutes, I had to change it. Moreover, the final resolution settled me nicely, laughed in my face, and only confirmed that I’d seen too few movies not to be surprised. There is beauty in simplicity and the ending is the simplest you can imagine. But despite all that, I am still forced to remain a step below the peak in my rating. The reason I'm not going higher is because I was incredibly irritated by the musical numbers. Sure, it can be said that they suited the film, but they just annoyed me throughout the whole film. However, 8 Women is definitely a very high-quality and entertaining spectacle, in which you will appreciate the individual characters even more after watching it for the second time. But I do recognize that each woman had a reason...
