If you love Hilary Duff (and by extension her older sister Haylie) then "Material Girls" might be the best movie ever. Whether or not you will like "Material Girls" can be summed up pretty easily. ... Full Review

If you love Hilary Duff (and by extension her older sister Haylie) then "Material Girls" might be the best movie ever.....well, I won't spoil the movie for the three people who can't figure out the ending.....Whether or not you will like "Material Girls" can be summed up pretty easily..... ...

That kind of relativism -- hoping for the best possible Hilary Duff movie -- is what got me to see Material Girls in a theater (it wasn't screened for critics). Most of her post-Disney movies have failed even as cheesy guilty pleasures, but I keep Netflixing those DVDs anyway ... Full Review

What "Material Girls" has going for it in the positive scoring department is that the ending manages to pull in a bit of a surprise, avoiding at least one dead-horse cliché. The final bonus is a rather flat music video by Hilary Duff of her single, "Play With Fire". ... Full Review

That's the best thing we can say about "Material Girls. Both Marchetta sisters consistently look fantastic and fashionable in their layered necklaces, Louis Vuitton bags and $200 jeans - even after they find out they're broke and a scandal puts them in danger of losing the company to rival Fabiella (Anjelica Huston, slumming elegantly). ...

Material Girls" is the kind of routine, sluggish film....If there's one substantial upside to this film, at least the production didn't bother put any snakes on any planes.....Seriously, as bad as "Material" can be at times, at least look at the sunny side of the street:....A stale, poorly mapped out comedy, the film doesn't feature much of a personality....they would still have to work uphill battling this lethargic screenplay..... ...

Material Girls" is a dumb film. So they burn down their house, have their credit cards revoked, and have to move in with their former live-in maid Inez (Maria Conchita Alonso), this after their Mercedes gets inadvertently stolen. ... Full Review

The Movie Boy
The cinematography by Johnny E. Jensen (2000's " The Ladies Man ") is dreadful, with washed-out colors, too much soft focus....starring in trite, empty-headed garbage like "Material Girls" is far more insulting to her prospective young audience than taking on an edgy indie flick....The best scenes in the picture are not between sisters....Material Girls" is sloppily edited, with full narrative threads being forgotten on a whim....It's obvious why Hilary Duff (2005's " The Perfect Man ") and Haylie Duff (200 ...
