About 1/3 of the way into this movie, I had a gut feeling of just another boring not so great girl power dating flick. But the movie took a surprisingly dark turn. Should have known Holly Hunter would not be doing the cheese I had anticipated. Just when I was about to give up on it, it started to get better. The whole ruse of using her producer's gig to get the dirt on her man's ex's was well done. You even believed that had it been another place or time, her and Joyce would have become best buds. But luckily for the movie, Holly Hunter was there to change that. The final scene with the taping of the live show was fantastic. I wish they would have used the ex-girlfriends a little more but justifiably the focus was on Stacy and her realization that her plan had somewhere been detoured. Very well done. But it was too late to make up for the hole that the movie had dug. Kudos to Brittany Murphy for her acting during the show.
