The film is less than two hours long but feels considerably longer, thanks to a few drawn-out scenes and some clunky character drama.
03/31/06
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
Alleges support of women, yet fetishizes their objects instead of their relationships.

[Henry] Jaglom's Going Shopping is a nifty little oddity, another of his unlikely, entertaining movie hybrids.
02/02/06
As breezy as window-shopping and reminds us that, in both shopping and love, everyone has buyer's remorse and few items fit right.

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
It's the last and least successful of indie director Henry Jaglom's trilogy looking at female issues.
12/02/05
The trouble with Going Shopping is that it's clogged with personalities and styles that don't congeal.
12/02/05
[An] incredibly tedious and gruesome affair.
12/02/05
[A] witty follow-up to director Henry Jaglom's Eating and Baby Fever.

Going Shopping can make a wonderful outing for girlfriends. It's fun.
11/23/05
This boutique of a movie won't bring in the madding crowds of a Macy's sale.
10/15/05
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
At times movies seem rife with misogyny, yet Jaglom consistently expresses a love for women in his films.

Top CriticIf this sounds like your type of thing, you'll probably get your money's worth.
09/30/05
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
Inadvertently reduces women to a variety of cliches, probably reinforcing many men's worst fears.
