 - Not as good as the books...but definitely a good movie.The first time I saw the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants I was pretty disappointed, but it somehow has grown on me and turned into one of my favorites. There are some differences between the books and movie, but that is just something to be expected, which is something I had to figure out. When just analyzing the movie, rather than comparing it to the amazing books, the movie proves itself to be pretty amazing as well. I'll be seeing the second one August 6th! Rating:  - Traveling Pants DVDI enjoyed this DVD, but not as much as the book. I didn't like the changes they made from the book to the movie. But it was still fun to watch; I would definitely recommend reading the book first. Rating: - great chick flickThe Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (Full Screen Edition) Thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie even my husband liked it. I was familiar with the books but had never seen the movie. You will probably need 2 tissues!!! Rating: - well-constructed storyTo start off with, I am a middle-aged male. I want to praise the writers for the skill in coordinating four different stories. All sorts of the things could have gone wrong -- the audience could have gotten confused, or the stories could get repetitive, or some stories could have overwhelmed others. But they did it so well that it's unobtrusive. Also, having four good actresses with distinct personalties helped. My main complaint is the Bridget subplot. Probably because of the PG rating, the writers are reluctant to come out and say that she threw away her virginity on a guy that wasn't worth it; as a result her motives and feelings are pretty much a blur. You'd think Tibby was the one who suffered the most, experiencing the death of a loved one, yet Bridget monopolizes the group's sympathy without saying why. Rating:  - SIMPLY AWESOMEI highly reccomend this for the pre-adolescent and adolescent females in the household. There is some great life lessons to be learned about acceptance, first loves, and separation. Particular standouts are Amber Tamblyn and America Ferrara. I would have given it more stars if there weren't so many references to soccer.
