[An] incredibly tedious and gruesome affair.

Reviews for Going Shopping
Going Shopping can make a wonderful outing for girlfriends. It's fun.
11/23/05
Alleges support of women, yet fetishizes their objects instead of their relationships.
03/31/06
Top CriticDangerously close to tiresome. The comedic boutique framework is a little too frill and a bit understocked.
09/26/05
Like the funky little shop at its heart, Going Shopping may not look like much from its exterior, but a little browsing turns up unexpected treasures.
12/02/05
Jaglom's concentrated approach serves up some insight to be sure, but the movie states its case in the first 10 minutes and then proceeds to run out of things to say, almost as quickly as the women in this movie think they've run out of things to wear.
03/31/06
Top CriticHenry Jaglom completes his informal trilogy on estrogen-laced obsessions with this seriocomic exploration of women and clothes.
09/29/05
There's one thing to be said for Jaglom: He continues to make movies in the face of critical brickbats and audience indifference, and he's lost none of his power to insult.
09/30/05
Going Shopping is sharp and funny about all the things that shopping can mean to the women who live to do it, and even to those who don't.
10/12/05
Top CriticHenry Jaglom's latest study of contemporary female obsessions among a noxious clan of West L.A. bourgeoisie is of more pathological than cinematic interest.
09/27/05
Top CriticTypical Jaglom yakker, made fresh by winning performances from Lee Grant, Rob Morrow and Bruce Davison.
09/18/05
Going Shopping...has enough smart, knowing touches and enough easy spontaneity among its well-chosen actors to make you wish it added up to more than what it turns out to be: a flighty, motor-mouthed cinematic divertissement.
09/29/05
Top CriticZeroes in on retail mania with a flimsy wire hanger of a premise.
09/30/05
Top CriticInadvertently reduces women to a variety of cliches, probably reinforcing many men's worst fears.
09/30/05
Top CriticThe trouble with Going Shopping is that it's clogged with personalities and styles that don't congeal.
12/02/05
Top CriticAs breezy as window-shopping and reminds us that, in both shopping and love, everyone has buyer's remorse and few items fit right.
02/02/06
Not only is indulgence a frequent subject for Jaglom, it also sums up what his movies do -- and what they demand from their audience, sometimes to tedious degrees.
09/30/05
Top CriticComes as close as any film to explaining what the deal is with women and shopping.
09/30/05
Top CriticIt's the last and least successful of indie director Henry Jaglom's trilogy looking at female issues.
12/02/05
Top CriticIf this sounds like your type of thing, you'll probably get your money's worth.
