    Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
    Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
    Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
    Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
    llihilloh It wasn't until the second week or so of seeing 'World's Funniest Movie Outtakes' or 'Wackiest Holiday Moments' following 'Boston Public' that I realized something was up with 'Girls Club.' I then visited IMDb only to learn that the show I was actually going to make an effort to watch was canceled after only two episodes. Now I'm mad.Why would they cancel this? I'm not saying that 'Girls Club' was destined to be something great, because it was pulled off the air before it ever really got to develop into something.....but, the two episodes that did air seemed to be really good. FOX has the nerve to take this show off while they leave pathetic shows such as 'Celebrity Boxing' and 'Bootcamp' on for an entire season! The show was off to a good start. The cast was very much enjoyable. Kathleen Robertson is a good actress. Gretchen Mol is a good actress. Chyler Leigh is a very good actress. So what's the problem? The three of them worked together well. It was a likeable cast.The writing was decent. Actually I was quite impressed with it. Some of it made me laugh, but being that it is a drama and not a comedy, there isn't supposed to be that much laughter and that's alright.The plots and storylines involved with each character seemed to be okay. Jeannie Falls' problem looked interesting. Lynne Camden's whole problem (or several problems) seemed entertaining. And Sarah Mickle's character alone seemed to be the best of the three. The plots weren't boring at all.I think that David E. Kelley just needs to take a break and breathe for a while. I mean he's had successful hits with 'Ally McBeal', 'Boston Public', and 'The Practice.' He's done television for years. Kelley's come up with some real losers though, like 'Ally' and 'Snoops.' He tries to do so much in television, especially with FOX, but just doesn't know when to call it quits. His shows are beginning to turn into the same thing and he definitely needs to move away from the whole law firm deal. Venture out, David. You might like what you see.So, 'Girls Club' got the axe entirely too soon. This was one viewer that would have continued watching. Everything was just right about the show, but for some terrible reason, TV has done it again: they've taken a show which appeals to me and at least five others, and canceled it without even giving it a chance. Yes, FOX, I'm sure that airing stupid 'Outtakes' and such is a much better idea and I bet you're just raking in the ratings with that garbage.
    dootuss Once again, David E. Kelley produced another crappy law show for Fox (and this after "Ally McBeal" got canned which was the best thing Fox had done in a LONG time), and by crappy, I DO mean crappy.First off, how in the HELL could three friends be in the same law firm in the same city? In reality isn't that not likely? If my question is true than that just shows how DUMB T.V.'s been anymore. Besides, the three main characters, are whiny, and bratty, and for the most part: They were just plain annoying. This show was so bad I wanted to throw the remote at the T.V. due to how utterly bad this show was. Pretty much the usual crap we'd expect from the overrated David E. Kelley.Frankly, the bottom line is that this show sucked, and I for one, was glad that it got canned. Garbage like this shouldn't be on T.V.This gets no stars.
    matlock-6 With a very attractive cast of youthful talent, David E. Kelley seems to have made another winner... and another TV series about lawyers. However, this one is nothing like Ally McBeal.Mr. Kelley seems to have looted the cast of "That 80's Show" (canceled after only one season) putting the able (and not bad on the eyes) Chyler Leigh in a starring role as one of the three main characters, and Eddie Shin in a supporting role as a researcher (or some such law firm person).Gretchen Mol and Kathleen Robertson work well as Ms. Leigh's young lawyer counterparts. And, as usual, the meat of the show lies in the relationships between the characters: love/hate relationships, "real" people, and the idea that neat and tidy endings are rarely possible. Much like "Boston Public".I have to admit, I watched the pilot mainly because I dig Mol and Leigh, but I found I really enjoyed the show too. I'll be watching it for sure (provided Fox, in their infinite wisdom, doesn't decide to cancel it).
    oliverburnett I just watched the premiere of David Kelley's new show Girl's Club and I loved it. I think this show has a lot of potential it is a great cross between his other shows the practice and ally mcbeal mixed in with new elements. If you get a chance see it. I hope it lasts and viewers give it a chance. I miss Ally MCBeal greatly and I think this show will fill the void if it lasts!!!! The show has been getting some poor reviews from critics like in TV Guide, Entertainment Weekly, and Zap2it.com but I can honestly say that I was pleasently suprised when I tuned in to the series premiere.Girls Club is about 3 best friends and law school grads who live and work together. Of course its not exactly realistic all the time but over all it does a good job and most importantly it is entertaining. The 3 leads(Gretchen Mol, Kathleen RObertson, and Chyler Leigh) are very good. GIVE GIRLS CLUB A CHANCE!!!!!!
