Synopsis
A brunette Sarah Michelle Gellar stars opposite Alec Baldwin in this romantic coming-of-age story loosely based on the popular Melissa Banks book THE GIRL'S GUIDE TO HUNTING AND FISHING. Gellar plays Brett Eisenberg, a young woman working her way up New York City's publishing ladder. Eager to get ahead, Brett attends a book signing with hopes of meeting influential publishing giant Archie Knox (Alec Baldwin). No sooner do they trade glances than Archie is wooing Brett with extravagant dates, expensive gifts, and career assistance. The relationship is a storybook romance from the start, but slowly gets much more complicated due to the age difference and Archie's alcoholism.

4.0 out of 5 stars Witty romantic comedy about reassurances and living life, 21 Jul 2008
By Louise Amkaer (Greenland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Brett is an associate book editor, hoping to make full editor soon. She is however, terribly unsure of herself. She lives her life the same way she edits book - with a pencil, writing, erasing, writing again (sometimes even the same thing again) and having serious doubts. Then she meets big-time editor Archie, who just happens to be twice her own age. There relationship evolves to a professional teacher/student relationship and a romantic relationship as well.

I enjoyed this romantic comedy more than I had anticipated. It is as soggy romantic as I had dreaded, but more the kind of movie, where you laugh and end up recgonizing bits and pieces from your own life. Who hasn't ended reassurance in a relationship or professionally? Who hasn't felt the serious doubt about what they were doing? Who hasn't been compelled to take charge, even if they do it poorly and reach some point of independence?

I would also like to compliment the performances from Sarah Michelle Gellar and Alec Baldwin. They are fabulous together in "Suburban girl".

Oh yes, I have to say, that the dialogue is witty and wonderful, full of literary references. It is nice to see a romantic comedy where they use words with three syllables or more.

Yes, this is a romantic comedy for Sunday afternoons on the couch, but it will make you want to break out and be independent.

Louise.

3.0 out of 5 stars subtle and consistently humorous romantic comedy, 8 Jul 2008
By dan the fan (england,uk) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This is a beautifully filmed,subtle and consistently humorous romantic comedy set in New York. Good chemistry between Alec Baldwin and Sarah Michelle Geller as the odd couple.If you're looking for a moving film that's positive even when dealing with negative events in life then this is your cup of tea.But too lightweight to be a mug - it doesn't have the lasting impact of something like Love Story ( with Ryan O Neill and Ali McGraw ).

3.0 out of 5 stars It's ok, 15 Aug 2008
By Ms. K. A. Bruce "goldielockskath" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I brought this DVD because I am a massive fan of Sarah M-G but I didn't think this film was very good. I was hoping for a real chick flick but this is not one!
