Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

Pros: great performances, four distinct storylines with very different conflicts, wholesome
Cons: Bridget's character is rather unlikable

Working in a bookstore, I’m usually pretty up on what books are especially popular with each demographic. Within the young adult section, very few titles have done so well lately as Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and its sequels. I ...

Pros: entertaining, Amber Tamblyn
Cons: Alexis's character was kind of dry, very cheesy script, stiff acting

Okay, okay. First thing’s first, I actually enjoyed the movie to an extent. I was actually interested in the movie, only because I thought Amber Tamblyn and Alexis Bledel are fairly good looking. While expecting to be bored to tears, Sisterhood ...

Pros: Fun chick flick, inspiring and heartfelt
Cons: Guys who aren't into chick flicks might not be into 'Pants' either

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants may not be a movie with universal appeal, however it should be of interest to most teenage girls, those on the cusp of being a teenage girl, and even those who remember what it was like to be a teenage girl. ...

Pros: Cute, unique story, fairly close to book
Cons: Sometimes cheesy, a few changes from the book, at times poor supporting cast

A girlfriend of mine asked me to see The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants with her and, being a huge fan of the books so far, I agreed. We made it a girls' night out; four of us, a fun movie, ring pops to connect us (cute idea, but maybe not for ...

Pros: Excellent performances; well written script.
Cons: None really, well okay Alexis perhaps.

It’s Father’s Day and my four girls are scattered across the country; two are in Florida, one is in Maryland, and the last one is in Chicago. Now here it is Sunday afternoon, it’s raining, and although I have many, many things I ...

Pros: well acted ensemble, helps you get in touch with your inner wench; moving
Cons: a bit sentimental and melodramatic at times; some stories not as effective as others

Fate has bonded Bridget (Blake Lively), Carmen (America Ferrera), Lena (Alexis Bledel), and Tibby (Amber Tamblyn) together into an inseparable sisterhood even before birth. Their mothers met at a prenatal aerobics class in their hometown of Bethesda, and ...

Pros: the girls and their relationship, finds magic in the ordinary
Cons: cuts rapid and too cutesy, supporting cast, somewhat predictable

Somehow The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares escaped my notice until earlier this year. I think I'd heard its name, but I had no idea it was a young adult hit and no clue what it was about. When I finally read the book I enjoyed ...

Pros: Beautifully emotional
Cons: Bridget’s lack of depth

When going to the video store, I always take note of the specials. As many "weekly" movies as you like for 95 cents each on a Tuesday is a cheap and easy way to see movies you were otherwise skeptical about, but seeing as this kind of special has been ...

Pros: Compelling coming of age story.
Cons: None

A year ago or so, I read The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I liked it, so when we signed up for Netflix, the movie version was one of the titles I added to the queue. Well, this little chick flick finally made it to the top of the queue. I just ...

Pros: acting ensemble; story; music
Cons: duration

Shut up. I know I went and saw this movie. What would drive me to go see a chic flick? After all, I wasn't paid to go do so. The fact was I was curious, for how often do you get a movie that comes along that's about a pair of pants? First of all, the ...

Pros: Great performances by America Ferrera and Amber Tamblyn.
Cons: Weak performances by Blake Lively and Alexis Bledel.

Hollywood sure has a love affair with turning books into movies --- but the translation onto the silver screen isn't always a successful one. Having read The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares, I think there is a ...

Pros: Good performances overall, a well-written screenplay and smart direction.
Cons: Maybe a little too sweet and good-natured to be loved by everyone.

THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS By Richard Chappell *** out of **** Cast: Amber Tamblyn, America Ferrera, Blake Lively and Alexis Bledel Directed by: Ken Kwapis Written by: Delia Ephron and Elizabeth Chandler; based on the novel by Ann ...

Pros: Good storyline, great acting, nice scenery.
Cons: Not accurately rated, several unnecessary scenes.

So my 9 year old really wanted to see this movie. Since I've been caught off guard before with more then she needs to know about when it comes to PG rated movies I figured I better go check it out first by myself. Those of you who have read my reviews ...

Pros: Story, direction, acting
Cons: Will most likely not appeal to men and boys

Boys, get ready to squirm, because "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" is a chick flick in every sense - but in a very, very good way. While it certainly has all the elements of sap-filled storytelling - the dramatic plot arcs, the weeping, the ...

Pros: Great performances, compelling story lines, good cast chemistry
Cons: Lena's story and character are uninteresting, stiff supporting cast

When my wife and I saw this movie in theaters, it was the week before the birth of our son, she was having occasional contractions, felt as big as a house, and was just generally cranky(understandably so). So, when we had our last big date for a while, ...
