Netflix Viewers Call Star-Studded Drama “Utter Rubbish” with 13% Rotten Tomatoes Score

Netflix recently released a star-studded drama titled Ladies First, and the reviews are in. Despite landing a mere 13 percent on Rotten Tomatoes from critics, this film has sparked a lot of discussion. Starring Rosamund Pike and Sacha Baron Cohen, the movie takes on a Barbie-esque premise under the direction of Thea Sharrock. The plot follows a ladies man who wakes up in a parallel world dominated by women, leading to a playful satire about gender dynamics.

The movie, a remake of the 2018 French romcom I Am Not an Easy Man, quickly became one of Netflix’s most-watched films. While critics have not been kind to Ladies First, viewers have shown more appreciation, giving it a 65 percent audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Some have described it as emotional, inspiring, and a brilliant way to highlight societal norms women face today. On the other hand, critics have called it dated and dreary, with one reviewer highlighting the star-packed cast but a disappointing plot.

Starring actors like Rosamund Pike, Sacha Baron Cohen, Charles Dance, Fiona Shaw, and more, Ladies First offers a strong ensemble. The film’s storyline revolves around Damien Sachs, a man thrown into a world where women reign supreme, completely shifting his perspective and dynamics. As he navigates this parallel universe, he faces off against the fierce and fearless Alex Fox, played by Rosamund Pike.

Despite the divided opinions, Ladies First is currently available on Netflix for viewers to make up their own minds about this intriguing and controversial drama.
