Ihr Traum, für ihre Lieblingsmodezeitschrift zu arbeiten, will nicht so recht in Erfüllung gehen, dafür erhält aber ausgerechnet sie, für die Geld nur zum Ausgeben da ist, einen Job als Kolumnistin für ein Finanzmagazin. Mit einem Mal lebt Rebecca auf der Überholspur - bis sie von ihrem leicht überzogenen Bankkonto eingeholt wird.

Todd McCarthy of Variety said, "this adaptation of the first two of Sophie Kinsella's massively popular novels strains far too hard for comedy that seldom erupts with full force and inevitably betrays a free-spending mindset that now feels gone with the wind". Concerning Isla Fisher's performance as Rebecca Bloomwood he appreciated that "her irrepressible comic personality overcomes a number of the film's impediments".
