In Her Shoes (DVD, 2009, Wedding Faceplate)

Cameron Diaz is always the brightest, prettiest, most popular girl in the room. She's the girl all the guys love and the women envy. She can throw down shots of tequila with the guys on the one hand and go shoe shopping with her girls on the other. So far in her career, she's played the live-wire, the over-achiever, the most elegantly dressed...the sexiest, friendliest, the most dazzling.
Not so in Curtis Hanson's (the sublime "LA Confidential") "In her Shoes." Diaz's Maggie Feller is a forlorn thief and drunk and more to the point a loser. Diaz's incandescent beauty is even dulled here: she's all dolled up, yes but underneath it all she is tragically sad.
I've always believed that the bond between siblings is the strongest bond in anyone's life and Maggie's bond with her older sister Rose (the terrific Toni Collette) is the backbone of this story: they hate each other, they love each other and they can't live with or without one another. Rose and Maggie have fought side-by-side on the battlefield of family deception and misunderstanding. They are comrades.
Director Hanson's movies always reek of the aroma of well observed life and relationships and "In Her Shoes" is no exception to this rule. But, in this case you can also marvel at Cameron Diaz's transformation into an important and serious actress of the first order.

Good Jokes with this 'girl' flick. Cameron uses her manipulations and both ladies blossom! This movie was not boring at all...something always happening!

If you're looking for a light comedy like Sleepless in Seattle or Groundhog Day, keep looking. This movie starts off very somberly and doesn't lighten up until Shirley MacLaine shows up as the long-lost grandmother. While I'm a fan of Jennifer Weiner's, this movie doesn't have her deft touch.

This is a movie about two sisters who have nothing in common, yet are still best friends. Maggie is wild and spontanious and a pain in the butt. She just can't settle down and keep a job. Her sister Rose (played by Toni Collette), is the opposite. She is a successful lawyer and quite uptight. Maggie does something awful to her sister and they have a fight. After she leaves she travels to meet her long lost grandmother that they didn't know was still alive. There she straightens her life out and her sister finds herself as well.

Being a Cameron Diaz film you expect a chic flick but with a fair bit of comedy.

And this film??? Well sure it classes as a chic film but what it lacked hugely was the comedy factor.

It could potentially be a good film but i found it scattered the story line too much and went on a bit too. By the end i was practically climbing the walls willing it to end. If you are feeling down and wanna put on a film i wouldnt suggest this one, it'll make you feel worse!

I dont think its anything to do with the quality of the actors but it just really doesnt work. It doesnt have you clamped to your seat staring at the screen. If your a fan on Cameron Diaz films id say youll be disappointed. Stick to Something about MAry and such like. These are far better

If you want to see a great movie that will make you laugh about being overweight, depressed, sister problems ...this is the movie for you. Well written with great stars..It will make you feel better..

Anyone who has a sister can probably relate to this movie to some extent. I remind myself of the cameron diaz character, except I have a job and I'm not a thief. When I was younger I used to borrow my older sisters clothes and stretch out the tops because I have always been a little more gifted than her in that area. She used to get really pissed. Also my sister is the serious one and I am the more fun sister. Cute movie.

A+++++ Seller the shipping was very quick and the package was exactly as advertised. I buy from half.com because if is a safe, easy and inexpensive way to buy your favorite movies or to even send one to your friends or family!!

I am usually not a Cameron Diaz fan at all, but in this movie her role captivated me. The story line is excellent, the adaptation from the Jennifer Weiner book is great and at times, heart wrenching.
I've watched this movie twice since buying it a few weeks ago, and it will remain a favorite in my DVD library.

This wasn't one of Cameron's finest performances, but it's worth seeing and even buying if you can get it cheap. Overall, a pretty good movie, just not fantastic or anything.

I heard it was a good movie and I am glad i bought it, as it really was. I will pass this movie on to my female friends, as i know they will enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks.

personally, i've got a bit of a shoe fetish....and this movie has just so many shoes i couldnt help but watch it!

I haven't had a chance to watch the DVD...I bought because my sister said it was very good & I'd probably relate to the story line....

I'm not sure whether I'm reviewing the movie or the quality of the product.

The DVD was in great shape.

I've watched the movie twice already. It's a real-life movie that captures real life people. I have two sisters, so I can identify with the movie.
