MCT:August 20, 2008I really liked the pace of this movie. I wasn't all that keen about Sarah Michelle Gellar having an affair with Alec Baldwin (eeewwww). Anyway, the movie is based on a couple of chapters from "The Suburban Girl's Guide to Hunting and Fishing". I actually got the book because I loved the movie so much.

I was expecting mroe of a comedy than a dramedy. It has its moments but I would have preferred a more carefree approach to the story and I just didn't buy the whole romance between Sarah Michelle and Alec.

MCT:July 11, 2008This movie at first, I thought it would be corny, and alot like Simply Irrestistable, but instead, surprised me, and had a good ending too! :D

It felt like the literary version of Carrie and Mr. Big with a bit of a grown-up Cinderella story. The story itself was not bad but in the end, it's still Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Alec Baldwin with his constant sneer.

MCT:July 1, 2008Nice chick flick style movie with a darker theme and a bit of an ick factor watching Sarah Michelle Gellar and Alec Baldwin get together. (I mean, honestly, as well as being a control freak, the guy was over twice her character's age!). I did enjoy this movie though and liked the realistic end to it.

This movie was pretty decent altho the story was kinda boring perhaps , not all but some parts. Sarah Michelle Gellar finds romance in an older man (Alec Baldwin) .. the ending was a bit different than similar movies otherwise its just another drama / romance flick.

So the first night I turned it off because I found myself extremely bored! Decided to give it another try & actually finished it. Wouldn't say it's supereb or anything, but it was alright.
I found Gellar & Baldwin to have no chemistry, so it was hard to root for them, plus the fact that he was so much older than her grossed me out at times! Felt she was more like the daughter he was longing for to come back.
I did however enjoy the ending! I like it when they aren't always happy all the time, because that is more like real life! -

Wondeful depiction of the Old man, young girl saga. Love, games, lies, insecurities.. Mixed up in a beutiful, light drama.. Not so happy ending depending on whose angle you're viewing it from.
-
MCT:April 19, 2008bleh bleh bleh.. really boring, no happy endings, not a lot of humor. Just a weird plot of the young girl attracted to an older guy. Howcome we never see the older guy's daughter?
-
MCT:April 12, 2008Probably not as bad as I thought - just not my kind of movie. If I wasn't watching it on a plane I would have walked out. In fact, I tried to but the sky-marshal tazered me which still felt better than watching this film.

MCT:March 14, 2008It appears that my beloved SMG/P is persisting with her post-Buffy Lucky Dip approach to choosing films. Lately, her movies tend to be quite clearly either a hit or a miss. Suburban Girl falls somewhere around the halfway mark. Surprisingly, this Straight-to-DVD rom-com (shudder...) is actually rather charming. The age difference between Gellar and Baldwin isn't too disturbing, and they seem to have quite a natural chemisty between them. And the soundtrack was groovy too. Having said that, it is part of my doomed genre of rom-com and there's nothing amazing or memorable about it such that I could rate it any higher than 2.5 stars. *UPDATE* The director, Marc Klein, gives a really honest audio commentary - he talks about many things that went wrong on the film, and gives some good advice to other first-time directors.

I loved this movie. You do have to be a sappy chick flick lover to enjoy it though. It is very cheesy - as are all Gellar movies - but I loved it.
-
MCT:February 18, 2008A fantastic movie! Absolutely love it. It's great to see Sarah Michelle Gellar in her own reprising role in a movie. Once again. She gives a phenomenal performance. Brilliant story plot, great music.

This was a terrible rip-off on the far far FAR better SHOP GIRL.
Suburban Girl's (geez they even ripped off the title a bit) story was very weak. Alec Baldwin? Paunchy - creepy
Sarah Michelle Gellar? Gaunt - wooden
I NEVER bought the relatioship between these two - give me a break.
Pass this one by and rent the far superior and quite beautiful Shop Girl instead. -

me surpreendeu, de uma maneira positiva. até a Sarah Michelle Gellar tá suportável (ou menos insuportável) :)

An interesting look at one may/december romance. Painted in too broad strokes to have enough emotional impact to be a great film.

Good acting, I feel like it would have made a better book though, although I still enjoyed the story.
