"Confessions of a Shopaholic" and rationalizing why I watched a chick flick

 

Let's get straight to it... Confessions of a Shopaholic is about as "chick flick" as you could possibly get.  Except I suppose you could at least argue that this one has hot chicks and humor, so maybe it is OK for a guy to watch it.  The film is basically a PG-rated mash-up of Sex and the City and Legally Blonde, so while the MPAA rating takes away much of the "sex" part, it still is a decent story about "addiction" (that could be related to drug, alcoholic and/or online porn habits I suppose) that's pretty funny and, as mentioned, is loaded with hot girls.

Isla Fisher is the lead and does everything she can to push up her cleavage in every outfit (can't believe I just said "outfit").  She's decent.  But the ones to watch if you ask me are the best friend, Krysten Ritter, and the leggy blonde in the pic, Leslie Bibb.  Kristin Scott Thomas, John Goodman, Joan Cusack, John Lithgow and some guy named Hugh Dancy round out the cast.  Watch the movie trailer and read on because...

FilmBender is Funny Movie Reviews.  The director has a few other solid films under his belt like Muriel's Wedding and My Best Friend's Wedding.  Oh sh*t... those are chick flicks too.  Who am I?!  Well, I suppose I enjoyed this film a bit, but my real confession is that my wife wanted to see this one, and what she says is generally what we do.  Gotta go fold some laundry.  Later.
