The character interactions are often overly theatrical and the central figure turns out to be the second-least interesting individual in this five-person story.

Without offering more than dialogue, "Women Talking" has difficulty sustaining itself for 104 minutes.

What director Gina Prince-Bythewood provides is more than enough for a rousing motion picture filled with well-choreographed battle scenes effectively folded into stories of human interest.

It's not without flaws but it draws the viewer into its specific time and place and offers an engaging two-hour escape into the life of a memorable individual.
