Tamma Moksha The Hindu A twisted exercise in narcissism... Jun 10, 2024 Full Review John DeVore Decider The movie is closer to a video opinion essay than an examination of an issue... What Is A Woman? is utterly devoid of curiosity or generosity. It’s fueled by anger and fear, and partisan calculation. Walsh poses like a wise man, but he’s a cyberbully. Jul 3, 2023 Full Review Ian Simmons Kicking the Seat Yes, viewers will need to contend with Matt Walsh’s agenda, but he does a solid job of presenting various angles from which to discuss the myriad debates rocking our culture right now. Rated: 3.5 / 5 Jun 12, 2023 Full Review Jessie Gender Jessie Gender YouTube Channel A film made to sermonize to the already converted, those already primed to see the simple existence of trans people as worthy of laughter and contempt rather than curiosity or empathy, then hand them weapons in the form of lazy disinformation and hate. Aug 12, 2022 Full Review Brett McCracken The Gospel Coalition The film is strongest when it isn’t poking fun at trans activists or making them squirm with gotcha questions, but rather when trans skeptics are given the chance to speak—something too few platforms are willing to do today. Jun 11, 2022 Full Review Wade Major CineGods.com ...the film takes a decidedly Roger & Me approach to answering its titular question, finding the answer as elusive as Moore did General Motors CEO Roger Smith. Rated: 3/4 Jun 10, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jace T This is a film that was made for a certain demographic of people, and you can clearly tell from the reviews here. It is completely political, and will only appeal or not appeal to peoples biases. The film is competent, but they do not pick competent people to interview. They slant their bias fully in their direction, and straw man the opposing opinion instead of strong man it. I think the goofiest part of this film is that it actually does not answer the question the title of the film asks. What is a woman? Not even Matt Walsh's wife at the end of the movie can give a good definition, and just end the film with a joke. So yes, this is a dark comedy, because it is a film trying to be truth telling that has no truth to portray. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/30/25 Full Review Mary S Laughable (not in a good way). It's frankly disingenuous at best. At best. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/30/25 Full Review Niko H These topics need to be talked about more. Why cancel conversation ? If you believe so strongly then you shouldn’t be scared to talk about it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/17/25 Full Review Roofus S Matt Walsh’s What is a Woman? is less a documentary and more a portrait of a deeply unhappy man asking the wrong questions to the wrong people. Instead of seeking genuine understanding, Walsh trudges through interviews with a scowl, desperate for validation he never quite finds. His dour, joyless outlook overshadows any real dialogue or connection. Honestly, Matt seems like he’d be much happier leading a pack of golden retrievers through a sunny park than confronting strangers about gender. A career as a professional dog walker could bring him the joy, humility, and sense of purpose this film — and he — so sorely lacks. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review sheepnet t Really entertaining movie about very serious topic Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/05/25 Full Review Martin O Best documentary I've ever seen. Absolutely hilarious (even though the subject matter is tragic). Matt Walsh's deadpan style is genius and comedy rolled into one. Can't recommend highly enough!
