Back in 2000 (can you believe that was 13 freaking YEARS ago??), Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt co-starred in a romantic comedy where he gained the ability to read women's thoughts in "What Women Want". Comedy ensued as this soon-to-be-reformed chauvinist tried to woo his way into her pants, and her job, only [...]
