Confessions of A Shopaholic

Nothing's really going on this week, but I managed to catch Confessions of A Shopaholic on Wednesday! :)

The movie is a film adaptation of 2 books (Confessions of a Shopaholic and Shopaholic Takes Manhattan) from Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic series of novels. I find myself enjoying every bit of the movie thoroughly unlike other film adaptations (i.e Marley & Me, Da Vinci Code, etc). Nevermind if the story's not set in the UK or how Luke wasn't supposed to be the editor at Financial Savings, all that didn't mattered to me. Isla Fisher really brought the character Rebecca Bloomwood to life, and she has a wardrobe to die for (and credit bills to match). It was really funny to watch her improvising excuses for her failure to repay her debts, gasping in horror before downing alcohol whenever her pal Suze opens up her credit card bills, pretending to understand Finnish and financial jargon. It was really hilarious watching her do the tango with Luke as well hahaha!

Anyways, don't wanna say anymore and spoil the fun for people who haven't caught it yet. This is one movie that I'll buy the DVD and watch it over and over again :)
