Positives: An interesting poem, a couple of moments where you actually cared what was happening. Negatives: Film lacked focus and direction - seemed to meander for the most part. Toni Collete's character was so bland, it didn't give her a chance to really act. Cameron Diaz's character was so shallow - probably about what she could handle - but you really didn't care about either of them throughout the movie. The middle is the only part where a couple of interesting things happened - the beginning and ending where completely lame. And there was really no resolution to the title "In Her Shoes" other than Cameron Diaz's character taking and using (and ruining) various pairs of shoes (yawn). While this movie had a couple of moments that were interesting, at the end we just rolled our eyes and regretted wasting the 2 hours.
