Amazon.com: Half screwball romance, half television satire, Little Black Book follows insecure Stacy Holt (Brittany Murphy, Uptown Girls, 8 Mile), who has an idyllic relationship with a great guy named Derek (Ron Livingston, Office Space) and a job as an associate producer for a daytime talk show that fuses Jerry Springer and Ricki Lake. Then a cynical co-worker named Barb (Holly Hunter, Broadcast News) persuades Stacy to delve into Derek's Palm Pilot to learn more about his ex-girlfriends--which sends Stacy into a spiral of ever-increasing paranoid compulsion. Little Black Book takes some unexpected plot twists that some viewers will find inexplicable and others will find weirdly fascinating. The movie's split personality makes it unsuccessful as a whole but compelling in parts. Hunter steals the show, in more ways than one. Also featuring Kathy Bates, (Misery, About Schmidt) and Julianne Nicholson (Seeing Other People). --Bret Fetzer

Rating: - Feel-Good Comedy Thru Mishap
Actually, as my title suggest, a feel good movie, yet, thru mishaps. Cute personalities, great acting, beautiful women, interesting enough story line, make this movie a hit. Take modern day talk-show TV (Think Jerry Springer); mix it up with young love, stir, bake, and you get the stuff life provides. A bit silly. A bit unrealistic. Still, a satisfying watch. Along life's journey, Brittany's character travels with the perfect plan in mind, hoping to make her life-long dreams come to fruition. Through ... Read More
Rating: - Waste of Time!
Brittany Murphy is cute and a decent actress. Unfortunately, this movie stinks! It was marketed as a romantic comedy, and it sure wasn't. If it was anything, it was a drama. Once more, Holly Hunter played her true self -- rude, crude, and cynical. To 'top' it all off, not once did Holly wear a blouse or a tank that didn't bear her belly. Finally, to add insult to injury, the last 10 minutes of the film treats us to a sermon on how life can't be scripted. Anyone over 20 already knows this. Anyone under ... Read More

Rating: - light hearted comedy with a twist
little Black Book
This is a Romantic Comedy with a dramatic surprise twist at the end. As the title suggests, this is where curiosity to find out what is in "his" little black book (electronic palm device) leads to jealousy, disappointment, a broken heart and then the truth which sets Brittany free to achieve her life goal. What more can I say. Buy it and have some fun. It's a light hearted comedy with a twist and a theme that should make you stop and think. Possibly you will examine your ... Read More
Rating: - You'll never get this time back, so take my advice and don't do it
Brittany Murphy and Holly Hunter star in this way below mediocre "romantic comedy" about two producers at the Jerry Springer-esque Kippie Kann show. Kippie Kann (Kathy Bates) is supposedly losing viewers and they want to give the show a new twist. Accordingly, they take all sorts of new ideas for shows to make Kippie a bit less trashy. One of them: Little Black Books, or electronic ones like Palms and Blackberries. After her boyfriend lets it slip that he used to date a well-known model, Brittany Murphy's character, ... Read More
