5.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly enjoyable family film., September 19, 2002

By	"mikelplated" (Santa Monica, California) - See all my reviews

I watched a friends 'screener' tape of this film (it was nominated for an Emmy for best direction of a childrens film), and found it really enchanting. The characters are smart and funny but not in a snide way, the kids all have a depth and intelligence about them that made it a pleasure to watch.

The story is not terribly complex; a young girl is about to turn sixteen years old and starts to find 'clues' that her parents may be getting a divorce, so she devises various plots to keep them together, and at the same time she is falling in love for the first time. Simple, yet nicely told in a comedic way.

The music was fun, the acting uniformly terrific, and it was filmed in a very unique and interesting way.

I'd highly recommend this film, especially if you happen to have a high spirited 13 year old daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Sweet Little Film, February 21, 2003

By	Mary (Lompoc, CA USA) - See all my reviews

One of my good friends and I saw this film on the shelf at a local video store and although we are 10 years older than the main character, we truly loved this film! It is one of those "comfortable" films that just made us feel good watching it. I plan to buy it, even on the dreaded VHS!

5.0 out of 5 stars BRET HART, December 5, 2005

By	DAVID VALE "MANGER OF RICHIES GYM" (BROOKLYN, NEW YORK United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I real watch this movie only because Bret Hart was in it. But it is a real sweet coming to age film for young kids.
