Member Rating:  
Curtis Hanson's adaptation of Jennifer Weiner's novel In Her Shoes stars Toni Collette and Cameron Diaz as a pair of very close but very different sisters. Free-wheeling irresponsible Maggie Feller (Diaz) gets through her life thanks to her remarkable looks and her lack of scruples. She constantly goes to her straight-laced, plain-Jane successful lawyer sister Rose (Collette) for financial help. The two sisters have been very close to each other in part because their troubled mother died when they were girls. Right about the same time that Maggie discovers hidden letters that reveal she and Rose have a grandmother, Maggie does something to betray Rose's trust. Maggie sets off for Florida to find the grandmother. A failed workplace romance forces Rose to rethink her career, a career that has been the center of her life. As Rose tentatively begins a new relationship and Maggie gets to know her grandmother (played by Shirley MacLaine), the two learn a dark family secret that helps smooth the path toward reconciliation. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

For those that thought this was a boring movie, read the book first, then watch the movie, you'll understand the characters a lot more. Good movie, love the story.

awesome movie...although it's a definite 'family' movie. that is the dynamics of one family and multi-generational. fantastic cast...almost all have won or been nominated for Oscar (not for this movie). very underrated.

This movie was a surprize to me. I wasn't what I expected, I guess. The whole family enjoyed it, even the teenage boys.

Movie started out very SLOWLY, but I thought I will stick with this. Glad I did. Enjoyed seeing the changes in people. Lessons that each person has to change for a better life & peace

I was expecting a light fluffy movie, but this movie was better than that. It had more substance than I expected and Toni Collette's acting was quite good. Not great, but solid and I really enjoyed it.

Yes   |   No


Linda D.

This was a good movie but it took too long for the story to start to gel which is why I can't quite give this 4 stars. I AM happy that I hung in there with it though as I enjoyed it.

Cheryl W.

This movie started out slow and I was not sure of where it was going, or if it would get going. It does and is fairly good if you can get through the first hour. Cute, touching. Shirley MacLaine is funny and great as usual.
