Movie Review: Confessions of a Shopaholic


Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer ("Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy, "National Treasure", "National Treasure: Book of Secrets").

In the glamorous world of New York City, Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) is a fun-loving girl who is really good at shoppinga little too good, perhaps. She dreams of working for her favorite fashion magazine, but can't quite get her foot in the dooruntil ironically, she snags a job as an advice columnist for a financial magazine published by the same company. As her dreams are finally coming true, she goes to ever more hilarious and extreme efforts to keep her past from ruining her future.

A movie based on the best selling novel by Sophia Kinsella. Apparently, the novel has been around since ages and i'm sure alot of girls out there have read it. some people think that the movie was a tad disappointing. The movie changed alot of details from the book and people who have read the book might get a totally different feel about the story.

Well, if we watched it with an open mind and for people like me who has never read the book before, this movie is pretty hilarious. A film dedicated to all female, especially the shopaholics. Lots of fashion, lots of brands from gucci to Vera Wang. It's definitely a must catch chick flick and be dazzled by the galmourous New York City and the mannequins with lovely clothes!
