Sidney Young is a down-on-his-luck journalist. When he accepts a position as a contributing editor for an iconic fashion magazine, his subsequent attempts to ingratiate himself with both his egotistical boss and the superficial celebrities who populate the pages of the magazine prove disastrously hilarious.

It plays like a made-for-CBS redo of The Devil Wears Prada.October 03, 2008
What was good enough for the printed page -- a comic chronicle of our obsession with the shallow -- has been turned into the object of its own derision.November 07, 2008
Where the movie succeeds is in its sudden right turns, its willingness to kill a dog, always a bold choice, and its consistent emphasis of the comedy over the romance.October 03, 2008

... slickly constructed and frequently funny.February 12, 2009

I'm told that several of these characters are easily recognisable to insiders, but outside that small coterie there's still a great deal to enjoy about Sidney's fish-out-of-water exploits.November 07, 2008
Just because you are supposed to laugh doesn't mean you are going to laugh.October 03, 2008
It seems Weide and Pegg were determined to make good on their title How to Lose Friends& Alienate People. You can sum up their results in two words: mission accomplished.
