Brandin Rackley is my favorite part of this film -- love that faux British accent (she goes Eastern European in Bikini Frankenstein ... the new Meryl Streep of soft porn?) as the "Emily Blunt" role in this Devil Wears Prada knock-off (it is not really a parody as such -- the characters are fairly serious, except the bimbo models). She has a fairly light touch, a sense of humor and is pretty sexy.
Christine Nguyen is something of a disappointment. She is nice on the eyes but is a bit stiff in the acting department (to each their own, but in a film that has some exposition like this one, this comes off a bit badly) in the "Anne Hathaway" role. Beverly Lynne is pretty good though in the "Meryl Streep" role. Her designer is no Stanley Tucci but is amusing. I don't quite know what the fake parrot thing is all about though.
Basic plot: Brandin brings in Christine so that she can be her replacement as Lynne's whipping girl (so to speak -- no whipping literally involved) as her assistant in a porn magazine. Later a bit of intrigue occurs but since I never really cared about Nguyen, it's not really a big deal. Also, by then, Lynne's character isn't really a concern either. But, there was some good scenes, the best again involving Brandin (though Christine and Beverly aren't bad either). Largely a girl on girl (or single woman nudity) focus here.
Overall, pretty fun, losing interest toward the end. And, cheers to Brandin Rackley -- love her outfits at work.
{edit: For Nguyen fans, I will say that since then I saw her in a few films and she has some talent. Her Indiana Jones impression, e.g., was pretty good. I don't think she was that good here though.}
