malcolmgsw Having sat in silence I looked this unknown film up on this site.I found a very unusual situation.Despite the fact that more people,including me had given this tripe a 1 than a 10.Furthermore there are 3 pages of reviews,all glowing and many giving it 10.I thought that is unfair for those amongst us who gave it 1 to be totally unrepresented.So here is a review on behalf of those who had the good sense to give it 1.I doubt that it is coincidence that the male characters female name is Geraldine.It is an misconceived tribute to the greatest cross dressing film ever.Billy Wilder must be turning in his grave.I have no objections to a comedy about transvestites.I object to a bad comedy about transvestites.

myflyingjellybean Just Like A Woman is very entertaining light comedy film. It follows the story of Gerald, a transvestite man who is having a huge dilemma whether he he should quit being a transvestite or live a life of an ordinary heterosexual man to avoid complications in his life. It was actually my first time to watch a transvestite movie and I really enjoyed it and at the same time I've learned so many new things about being a transvestite. When I first saw the scene where Gerald dressed up as a woman in front of Monica, I actually thought that as he transformed his looks from a man into a woman, his sexuality changes too but clearly it did not. I have learned that transvestite people are not weird and not because they have the urge of dressing up like a woman is that they have some mental problem. This movie clearly shows that being a transvestite is not a hindrance to be a normal person and as for Gerald, even he is a transvestite he was successful with his career and can live a normal life once he is back from being Geraldine to Gerald. Overall, I really enjoyed watching this film and recommend that everyone who are not fully educated with this kind of stuff should watch this film, it will definitely open your mind to a more realistic view of sexual identities.

simon_sparrow When I heard that Adrian Pasdar was in drag in this movie, my expectations that I would watch the entire movie were low. The only reasons I gave it a chance were the magnificent Julie Walters and the recommendation of a friend.What i thought would be a broad "Mrs. Doubtfire" type of farce turned out to be a gentle and insightful comedy. Pasdar is entirely credible and empathetic as the ambitious business man who needs to release the female part of his being by cross-dressing on occasions. He transmits these needs to the audience in a thoroughly believable fashion. Julie Walters is magnificent, is as her habit, as the landlady who teaches him unconditional love.

Sharon-13 Adrian Pasdar is excellent is this film. He makes a fascinating woman.
