Personally I think it would have done better to have been released around mothers day as it's a movie definitely targeted at the female group. Still, this movie is an excellent movie for teen audiences, and it has a lot more depth than recent fluffbits based on novels and old stories (See Ice Princess, A Cinderella Story, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, etc.) It also has enough older audience humor to relate to all ages, but not to the dark (albeit funny.in a twisted sort of way) point of popular hits such as Meangirls.
The world would be a better place if people could hold on like these girls do, through thick and thin, death and marriage. I admire these girls friendships and connections, and at the same time I envy them.and even further on, it's seems a little too hopeful for it's own good. I think it's the added and personal experience these girls have had to go through in real life, mostly from age and experience that helps them to really develop these characters.
Most of them are playing parts a good five to six years under their actual age, and yes they don't all fit the images I had in the book.but it's what they present that shows off. The real heart of this movie though is between the chemistry of the main actresses. (A note to those who haven't read.the audio book is one of the best read I've heard in ages and is worse the listen, it has the same actress as the initial trailer announcer) So I became a fan of the book and have been following this movie ever since, and as a fan I have to say that their are elements I would have liked to see in the movie, but the cut (or at least the cut at the screening) was lengthy but appropriate and did the best I think they could have to capture the book.
KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS GIRL PLUS
Plus it was well written to the point I was *EAGER* to finish it. It was about something really admirable that I would hope to read more of, an honest friendship. The sex scandals, the drug busts, the foul mouthed youth.I'm only twenty and books like these have me saying "What's with those kids today" This book wasn't about that. The most recent trend I've noticed is the current uprise in books that talk about the real B****es of the high school world. Originally I had to read this book as part of my job reviewing fiction that is aimed at teens through young adults.
