Brooke, a plain but creative and hard-working student at the top fashion school in the nation, who has come a long way from her tough childhood spent going from one foster home to another as an orphan. She has always dreamed of becoming a fashion designer, and is thrilled to finally be on her way. But, when the grandfather she never knew about passes away, her life is suddenly turned upside down. Not only has he left her his estate, but he's left her in charge of the family business, as mob boss to one of the top crime syndicates that has been trying to go legit. If that isn't enough, the handsome new student she's falling for is actually an undercover FBI agent aiming to get dirt on her to bring down the family empire.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Brooke (Kaley Cuoco) is a fashion student at a prestigious school in Manhattan. For a former foster child, this is quite a feat. However, she is not truly the "star" of her class. That honor belongs to gorgeous Candace (Megan Fox), who dazzles the student body with her designs. Suddenly, an older gentleman enters Brooke's life. His name is George (Dominic Chianese) and he tells Brooke some startling information. It seems his close friend of his was rich but, when his son and daughter-in-law died, he was too sad to care for a little girl so he gave his granddaughter to the authorities. That was Brooke! But, now that he has died, he has left everything to her. At first quite upset at her late relative for abandoning her, Brooke soon allows George to show her the "family business", a sort of mob that wants to go straight. George also gives Brooke the confidence to excel as a design student. But, could a cute new student be watching Brooke for the FBI? And, are there more secrets afoot? This is a light, romantic film that will please insatiable fans of the genre. The cast, mostly unknowns, is quite good and the script, costumes, sets, camera shots, and direction are all worthy, for it was mostly likely a low budget undertaking. No, it won't be a crime if you sit down to watch this one. Rather, smiles will consistently appear on the contented faces of its viewers.

I thought this was a really cute ABC Family movie. Some of it was unrealistic or cheesy but I still loved it! I have to watch it every time it's on and I think the acting's great! It's a good story too, lets you escape from the realism of everyday life. Most everything in this doesn't happen in real life. But you could wish it did lol. All I have to say is just don't take the movie too seriously when watching it. Expecting an Oscar worthy movie will not make you like this. Just relax and take a break when you watch this. I'd totally recommend this to anyone!7/10

When I watch a movie all I want is to enjoy myself. I did. This movie is not going to change your life, unless you were having a bad day. I do not worry about settings so much, if the idea is fun and the characters fit. I will not worry if maybe it is not so realistic. The three main characters(George,Brooke and Jack) were all cute. They were fun to watch and I did want them to "win". Yes, I think that Kaley Cuoco is very attractive and she made Brooke work for me. I have enjoyed Dominic Chianese in most everything that he has done. I liked this movie and will buy the DVD when it is released. Do not look for "Gone with the Wind", just let the movie be fun and you will enjoy it.

I loved Boss Girl! I thought Kaley was awesome in it! She took the role and really made it her own, and it definitely shows a different side of her other than the ditsy blonde on 8 Simple Rules. Funny, Cute, Romantic, Predictable (mainly just the part about her grandpa and Donny and some of the plot like the fashion show wasn't predictable) but otherwise a very awesome movie for the television. If they added a bit more to the plot i think they could've made it into a big screen movie! One of the only real problems I had with this movie is how Kaley Cuoco looks so young in it but her love partner(in the end), played by Pat Kelly, looks like he was maybe 10 - 15 years older than Kaley. It made it look a little off but otherwise in the nd I give this movie a 9 out of 10.
