Potential to be good, but that's all it has

Rating: 4/10 (11 July 2012)

I enjoyed the beginning of this film I won't lie, but as it dragged on, the lack of a twist led the dull and obvious storyline to be one not to my liking.
I think the biggest let down for me was being a fan of Hathaway I thought she was wrongly cast for the role of Andy. She's a budding journalist who lands a job at a big fashion company and in order to fit in she feels she has to 'transform' into a fashionista. The big reveal was a disappointment, okay her previous clothes weren't cool, but somebody as hot as Anne doesn't need labels. Not only that but although some outfits (her blazer and wet look leggings look) were stunning, I found some were a let down. They also kept on about her weight which when she apparently dropped a dress size, was unnoticeable.
For me this film was a let down with even the romance narrative taking a backseat.
