For Gwen Cummings (Bullock), a successful New York writer living life in the fast lane, life is just an exercise in debauchery.

Lover Girl gave it a10:
Sandra Bullock played her part absolutly fantastic! One of her best movies ever.
Pat C. gave it a 7:
Bullock goes to rehab, and in the process proves she's not just another pretty face, with trim figure, flashing dark eyes, jet-black velvety hair, pouting breasts, firm tush, long-boned thighs and the feet to tip-toe out of your sorry little pad and back to being the perfect neighbor-girl next door. (I point out the above because, well, because I can). She's got a brain, too. In this case a brain not preoccupied with monitoring alcohol intake, causing her to miss the turnoff to your neighborhood and head on down to the drunk tank. Seriously, Bullock's acting talents are diverse and in some ways greater than the pigeonhole roles from which she has managed to derive substantial income. I wouldn't call this film her performance for the ages or anything like that. She'd obviously be fun to get drunk with, but that's not the point of the show. I do say Prepare to be impressed, and to anticipate positive useful information.
Tara D. gave it a 10:
I love this movie... it's like me in the future... except I got a warning and can now stop it.
Conrad R. gave it a 7:
I always thought 'boring' movies were no good, but although it's slow, and yes - it is boring - its also got a secretive charm that I cannot explain.
Cole L. gave it a 6:
A strange story with a jumpy plot. You will not waste time, but it is just barely worth it.
