New York Magazine (Vulture) - Ken Tucker
When superb craftsmanship, discipline, and risk-taking (toning down Diaz and MacLaine; treating Collette as a desirous leading lady) are applied to accessible, even frivolous material, the results can be deeply pleasurable. In Her Shoes isn’t a masterpiece, but it’s the best Saturday-night movie millions of people are going to go to.

The Hollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt
Director Curtis Hanson has made a chick flick with substance as well as style.

Variety - Todd McCarthy
While the director's avid fans may be disappointed, upscalish mainstream auds, particularly women, will eat up this well-acted, emotionally focused adaptation of Jennifer Weiner's popular novel.

Village Voice - Laura Sinagra
The best moments belong to Shirley MacLaine, who makes the clipped script sing as Ella.

Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Could it be that the director of "L.A. Confidential," "Wonder Boys," and "8 Mile" has been defeated by characters on a first-name basis with brisket, by women who, in Susannah Grant's screenplay, represent avatars of joyless workaholism and joyless sexaholism?
