4/10
Falls off the ladder.

Warning: Spoilers
With me and a friend having enjoyed Heartbreakers,when we saw this on DVD for one pound,i thought it was worth a try.And while Hewitt does a very good performance,the film feels very empty.

The Plot: Hewitt plays Katya Livingstton.A woman who works very high-up in a major advertising company.She finds out that there is a "Party of the year" coming up and the show is not on the guest list!(The might be due to ruining a wedding by letting a newly married couples husband put his head up her skirt!)So Katya feels that she must do everything she can to get an invite.But when she meets the man of her dreams,she has to decided if the man means More to her than the party..

View on the film: The best part of the film is Hewitts performance.She does a very good job at being seen as a very mean woman,while saying some biting lines("My boyfriend was an Ewok in Star Wars!)The screenplay is by Eric Charmelo and Nicole Snyder,and the thing the ruins the film is that they make Katya look so rich,the you really don't care if she picks the party or the guy.Because there is no realness to her (eg:Bridget Jones)so it just makes you feel that she can just buy anything and any one from a high-street shop.

Final view on the film: A very good performance by Hewitt,thats badly let down by a very hollow plot.
