This film is about a woman who does everything to climb up the social ladder, and pretends to be someone who she isn't.I bought this film for 1 pound, and it was not even second hand. Hence, I did not have much expectations for it.It is obvious that this is made for TV. The close ups are too close that the face occupies 95% of the screen. The way the camera moves between Frangiapani and Katja in the Indian restaurant looks more like a soap opera than a film. The film is so full of cliché. The obligatory gay friend who is constantly suicidal is too over the top that is almost derogatory.Despite all these shortcomings, I confess that I enjoyed the film. It is fun, brain-off film that makes you forget your troubles. Jennifer Love Hewitt looks stunning in the film. It's a comedy that works!

This may count as a spoiler, as some people may wish to watch a film before taking any opinion on it, but i feel i have to announce to the world that this is the worst film i have ever watched. The beginning is odd, to say the least, it's stretched, unfunny, copied and poorly written. The middle, if there is one, is of the story of a social climber, however, the lady in question, is already at the top of her social ladder- so why sis this film so called?. the ending, well the ending is pure drivel.The acting throughout is nothing better than one would expect from a school production.Continuously and unbelievably contrived.Its predictable, and was so badly produced i think it gave me ulcers. Does anyone agree? I don't see how anyone cannot.

Saw this one the other night. I thought it was pretty funny. It stars Jennifer Love-Hewitt as Katya, an ad exec. with a couple close friends. She tries to talk to people throughout this movie trying to be the "in-crowd." She learns in the end that it's not really worth trying to be there after she meets a nice guy that falls for her. She ends up hurting him and regrets making a huge mistake. I like Love-Hewitt movies and the characters that she plays in them. I think this movie could/should be a DVD with some extras thrown in. Definitely a movie that you should watch with your partner after you put the kids to bed! 7/10 on this one!

This was a somewhat entertaining and silly piece of fluff that will keep you from being not too bored. JLH is again playing the perky and cute and always showcasing her assets in another forgettable flick. Here she plays a Paris Hilton type who does what it takes to be seen and her mission is to go to this Royal Ball that is the biggest event of the year. She hits a snag when she meets the man of her dreams and of course dramatic miscommunication ensues. The only comedic highlight is Joey Lawrence playing JLH's gay pal. Again, if you're bored or are a huge JLH fan then knock yourself out, but if not, you're not missing much.
