Confessions Of A Shopaholic
Rebecca Bloomwood is a self confessed shopahalic. She shops until she drops or until the machine declines her card. She is working in a garden magazine but her dream job is to work in a fashion magazine, Alette . She had her chance once and managed to schedule an interview in the magazine but the position was already filled. The receptionist seeing her desperation to work in Alette, suggested hr to apply in Alette’s sister company, a financial magazine. Apparantly the man that will interview her is the same man that gave her $20 for the green scarf she bought (compulsively) on the way to Alette.
During her drunken state, she wrote two letters, one for Allete, to showcase her talent. Another letter for Luke (the man who gave her $20), with an offensive tone. Accidentally the letters were put in the wrong envelopes, her talent shows up in Luke’s desk while she tries hard to get the insulting letter out of Alette’s. Luke sees her potential and hired her. She is now now for The Girl In The Green Scarf. Her article was a huge success, giving ordinary people advices about finances. What will happen if her readers or specially if Luke finds out about her real deb state? Specially now that she and Luke is making the deal of their life.
There was a big promotion about this movie, I even joined a contest where one can win a premiere night ticket for this movie. I never had the chance t read the book where this movie is based. I can only make a review of this movie based on how I see it as a movie. My perception was, this movie is about finances and talks about compulsive buying and how to treat it. I thought that with all the hype surrounding the movie, this movie has some depth in it. I was wrong. It is a typical romantic movie surrounded with expensive clothes and a lesson any kindergarten knew. I have to stop here.
If I have to forget my peception about the movie, it is actually entertaining. The actors are doing OK with their roles. The supporting characters does not overshadow the main characters. They did made an impression too and the characterization were executed nicely.
If you are up for a chick flick, this one is for you too. I highly recommend it for a girl’s night out movie marathon. Ready you bucket of popcorn.
