The Confessions Of A Shopaholic possesses charm



Another chick flick is on the way in the form of a new book-turned-movie Confessions Of A Shopaholic. I wasn't even sure if I wanted to see it, but was I glad I decided to. It's seldom that you watch that type of movie and be in stitches the whole way through, especially for a guy. From beginning to end, it possesses this air of charm about it and surprisingly fun to watch.

Partly based on the book with the same title, Confessions Of A Shopaholic looks at a period in life of Rebecca Bloomwood, a young fashion slave who works as a journalist. When she gets fired, she gets into trouble because she doesn't have money to satisfy her addiction for high-end fashion. Instead of slowing down, as her best friend Suze would like nothing more, she gets herself more and more into debt, with utter denial of her current financial debt. She soon mistakenly ends up writing a column for a financial investment magazine where all hell breaks loose.

Confessions Of A Shopaholic is funny and extremely enjoyable, thanks to Isla Fisher's charm, wit and smarts. Although she makes these dumb mistakes, you cannot help but love how she has a recovery plan for each and every one of them. Even though some of those mistakes have a much deeper impact in her friendships, family and love life, she manages to salvage those relationships just in time. It's refreshing to be able to watch a movie and laugh out loud almost throughout the whole experience. I believe this is a breakout role that will see Isla Fisher reach the status of the likes of Reese Witherspoon, Anne Hathaway and other actresses of the same breath.

For all shopaholics, you will see a little bit of you in the movie and learn so much about spending your money. I have to mention ex-basketballer John Salley's character was hilarious, it was kind of weirdly funny seeing him playing such a role. Confessions Of A Shopaholic opens at cinemas nationwide on the 13th of March 2009.
