4.0 out of 5 stars Strong adolescent female protagonists make this movie.
Rare are movies where young adolescent girls are portrayed as independent, spirited, inventive, and adventurous all at once. Here is a movie that breaks a stereotype for young ladies. The two heroines are not chasing boys, and they are not wrapped up in traditional sex roles. This is the type of movie that sets a wonderful example for young women by portraying two...

2.0 out of 5 stars Movie is good, but transfer unreliable.
The movie is just as cute as I remember. A fun kid-friendly movie. That's why I gave this review a 2. The movie itself, I'd rate higher, but the transfer to dvd brings the rating WAY down.

In other words, buying it as a DVD-R transfer is at your own risk. I ended up having to return this once and get a 2nd copy. The first one was badly burned and had...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best child actresses, June 20, 2004
By 
Anna and Christina are two of the best child actresses I've ever seen act together. This movie symbolizes the meaning of true friendship. By the way, does anyone know when and if it will come out on DVD?

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear friendship without any cynicism, August 8, 1999
Have you ever found out how tough it is too find a real good movie in our days ? One that does just tell a wonderful story without anyone dying, without horror and, of course, without cynicism? Well - Gold Diggers : Secret of Bear Mountain is one of the few movies that fulfil those requirements. It's all about true friendship and it's a very emotional movie, that'll really touch your soul. It's shows that nothing on earth is worth more than real friendship and that sometimes you shouldn't trust in what others say about somebody - you might miss one of the greatest friendships ever. In my oppinion this movie is one of the best ever, and I hope that there will be a lot of similar movies in the future. I simply love it. True, clear and full of friendship. See it or die.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buried Treasure!, May 14, 1999
By A Customer
When I was Ricci's and Chlumsky's age, I dreamed nightly of buried treasure! 'Gold Diggers' is the story of girls with two opposite personalities who become best friends, and go on a search for gold! I recommend this highly to parents to rent or purchase for their daughters. It contains very positive and sweet messages.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this film!, November 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Gold Diggers [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie is all about friendship and adventure. When Beth moves to a new town, she meets a girl named Jody. Jody is not liked by many people because her mother is an alcholic and she steals. Beth becomes Jody's friend, Jody firmly believes in a woman named Molly Morgan, who was thought to have found hundreds of ounces of gold. Beth and Jody have many adventures together. This is a great feel good movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty much the only reason why I like Christina Ricci, August 13, 2005
I don't know why I enjoyed this movie so much the first time I saw it, but it was memorable enough that, to this day, I cannot change the channel when it is on. It's definitely one of the most suspenseful kids' movies I've seen- and even if they won't admit it, I bet even adults who watch it hold their breaths in anticipation towards the end. It certainly didn't get the greatest critic reviews, but you've definitely gotta give this movie a chance- it's worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great movie!, July 21, 1998
By A Customer
This is a great movie about friendships and getting rich! Beth moves from L.A. to a small country town in the Summer. She meets Jody, a girl who isn't too popular with the other kids, and then becomes her friend. They explore Bear Mountain, and Jody tells Beth about the legend of Molly Morgan, thats where it all begins... END

5.0 out of 5 stars Gold Diggers-an intriguing adventure for all, March 3, 2010
By 
Elaine M. Manneh (Anaheim, California) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
In the spirit and tradition of Tom Sawyer and the quest for the lost gold this story is one of the best I've seen in a long time. Jodi is a victim of abuse who has created a world for herself away from the pains of everyday life. Her friendship with the new girl in town is the basis of this story. This is an example of an excellent character study and a delightful adventure for all ages.
