From The Movie Snob:

The Shape of Things. (B-) Although this film is about dating and relationships, it is not a "date movie." The director is well-known for making misanthropic movies, and this one is no sunshiny portrayal of human nature. Nerdy, slobby English student Adam meets quirky, free-spirited art student Evelyn, and for some reason she agrees to go out with him. Next thing you know, she is starting to make him over--new haircut, new wardrobe, contacts, etc. She also starts to come between him and his best friends, Phil and Jenny. Further complicating matters, although Jenny is (unhappily) engaged to the boorish Phil, she has been not-very-secretly nursing a crush on clueless Adam for a long time, and the newly-remade Adam may be too much for her to resist. Honesty is in for a rough road in this film, and manipulation is the order of the day. You were warned!
