August 24, 2009The comstumes for Isla Fisher in this movie were REDICULUS!! THEY WERENT EVEN FASIONABLE!!
-
August 13, 2009There's no doubt about Fishers comedic talents. She just needs to find the right project. Shopalic is the very definition of a girly film, and a dumbed down one at that. Only for fans of Fisher

July 28, 2009I like pretty things & shiny stores & shoes & stuff, and I thought I might enjoy watching a fluffy movie about a girl who shares these interests. So I rented the movie on iTunes, made it through half, and then it expired because I forgot to go back to it. I wasn't sad.

November 7, 2009I read the first book of the series and in none of the previews that I saw was the book even remotely alike. Yet I still want to see it, how crazy is that?

November 7, 2009I knew from the beginning that it wasn't going to be great because the books are so briliant, you can't really copy that. So when i saw it i wasn't impressed. It doesn't work if you've read the books.

November 2, 2009Fun. Isla Fisher is terrific, and there is good support from Krysten Ritter, Joan Cusack, and John Goodman. Light.

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
The production renders totally irrelevant all hopes for a well-made movie. It's one of those ragged, pandemonious studio comedies that hammers at plot points in every contrived scene. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Not only is it an unfunny movie shrilly told, it probably is the most ill-timed and appallingly insulting movie in recent memory. full review

Kurt Loder, MTV
You don't have to see the movie to know what happens. But Fisher is such a nonstop comic delight that you might well want to see it anyway. full review

Note to would-be financial journalists: No one cares about your personal musings. Not even at Portfolio. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Confessions is no more than a painless time-waster. But the beguiling Fisher is well worth the investment. full review

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Overall Shopaholic seems to be standing in an empty station, waving a futile hand at a train long gone. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The plotting is on automatic pilot. It needs Chesley B. Sullenberger III. full review

Armond White, The New York Press
Australian director P.J. Hogan is one of the most original contemporary comic filmmakers -- better than the chick-flick genre ever had. full review
February 9, 2009
David Edelstein, New York Magazine
If the movie didn't pander so madly to the audience for Sex and the City and Legally Blonde, it might have been a comedy touchstone instead of a cringeworthy footnote. full review

April 21, 2008I have always thought it's better to read than to see. But I do have high hopes on the movie though.... :-p
