Cute and witty. Gellar did a fine job and was looking pretty darn adorable. I think Gellar and Baldwin had some good chemistry too. Sweet little film.

Nice chick flick style movie with a darker theme and a bit of an ick factor watching Sarah Michelle Gellar and Alec Baldwin get together. (I mean, honestly, as well as being a control freak, the guy was over twice her character's age!). I did enjoy this movie though and liked th... read more

This movie was really dumb. I'm glad I was able to exchange it for something else...

A fantastic movie! Absolutely love it. It's great to see Sarah Michelle Gellar in her own reprising role in a movie. Once again. She gives a phenomenal performance. Brilliant story plot, great music.

...possesses too few positive attributes to even warrant a mild recommendation... Full Review
The best thing about this May December romance is Alex Baldwin, who gives a compelling performance as the publishing king who keeps a photo album of his ex girlfriends. Full Review
Why would you take a pretty cool title like The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing and sub in a generic, borderline-lame one like Suburban Girl? Full Review
A pleasant surprise. Sarah Michelle Gellar's best work; Baldwin is so good.
Suburban Girl never finds the charm it thinks it has. Full Review

No better or worse than Steve Martin's Shop Girl, except it doesn't even have Jason Schwartzman to bring some laughs to the table. Full Review
