In Her Shoes falls short of a perfect fit
11/11/2005 - 14:02:54In Her Shoes
Director: Curtis Hanson
Cast: Cameron Diaz, Toni Collette, Shirley McLaine
Cert: 12
Don't like the one you're getting; the age-old comment from 'pig' men when a beautiful and less-so girl appears on the horizon.
Here, sisters Maggie - the sexy Diaz - and Rose - the, er, disappointing Collette - have only a shoe-size in common aside from a rivalry brought about by a betrayal.
The wasted McLaine plays the mother trying to bring her daughters back together.
It's really a nothing film, full of dull female stereotypes and thick males.
Hanson simply misses out on examining what might have become a truly interesting sisterly relationship.
Star Rating: 2/5
