A new twist on an old story - Real Women Have Curves review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
01/12/2005

Real Women Have Curves takes a well used story and gives it a fresh approach by making the lead character an overweight teenage girl of Mexican origin, whose mother is holding her back by using her weight and ethnicity as reasons keep her in her place, and to give up on any ideas of going to college in favour of working in the family owned business. It's a nice enough film with decent performances, but other than that it's pretty forgettable stuff.
