Memorergi good film but with many flaws

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

SnoopyStyle In Albuquerque, New Mexico, Saige Copeland is 9 years old and loves to paint. Her father (Kerr Smith) is flying a balloon at the local festival. Her best friend Tessa has a new friend Dylan from music camp. Tessa seems to have more in common with Dylan now. New kid Gabi Peña tries to befriend Saige. Budget cuts have forced art class to alternate with music class and this year, the art class is cut. Her grandma Mimi (Jane Seymour) suggests a protest against the cut. Sidney Fullmer is a charming lead without too much overacting. Saige is no saint as she struggles to find her way. Her difficulties with her best friend are well done. It is a little light weight but it's a good movie for young girls.

tom_c_newman Sydney Fullmer plays the title role in this enchanting movie about dealing with problems in elementary school. In a time when plots in movies are either lame or non-existent, this movie is a breath of fresh air. I'm not sure a review can be written about THIS movie without SOME spoilers, but I will keep them to an absolute minimum. As with all American Girl movies, the focus is on the problems of 9 or 10 year old young girls. Again, as in all American Girl movies, the answer always involves believing in yourself and facing your fears. While this is simplistic in its solutions to difficult problems, the movie is off the charts in entertainment value. There is a lot of music and color to this movie. Since it centers around art, it captures the essence of artistic expression in a bold way in a number of areas.While I think a child could enjoy this movie alone, it is a magnificent teaching tool. A parent can easily use this movie as a springboard to teach young girls (or boys, although not the target audience) many things about morality, family and friendship. I highly encourage watching it with your child.I enjoyed the movie and the acting was superb. We will see if Sydney makes the jump from juvenile actress to Hollywood starlet. My guess is that she will. The script is well written and the lines don't have the read-from-teleprompter quality that you sometimes get from juvenile acting.I've seen Oscars go to actresses for lesser performances and I've seen movies win Oscars that were positively duds. This is an Oscar worthy movie with Oscar worthy acting. It is literally a film for the whole family.

cwg2005a I have never seen an "American Girl" film, and in fact have been quite cynical of the obvious marketing goals. Well, this film belies my prior views, as it is worth every second of watching. The writing is for young girls, of course, but I am an adult male who likes "Batman" films, and the writing, quickly-paced direction, and acting (what an extraordinary bunch of little girl actresses!) all combined to bring tears to all our eyes.I don't give it a "10" for one reason: I dislike the constant warm back- lighting; it is reminiscent of those cheesy "wholesome breakfast" ads where people eat surrounded by wheat fields early in the morning. If you get a chance to see this re-run, please do yourself a favor and don't miss it!

kittygirl6 I have always enjoyed the American Girl movies and the values they teach, but this one has been by far the one I have enjoyed the most. It has an easy to follow plot for children and scenes that will keep them interested in the movie while showing them skills they will need to cope with life's issues. One thing that caught my attention was that Saige's grandmother's home there was a fireplace with a fire, but the movie takes place in a warm climate, so I found it a little strange that a fireplace was lit. Jane Seymour's acting was excellent, as always and she really gave the character a warmth that was vital to touching scenes like when she meets Saige at the Fiesta.All in all, I simply loved this movie and I have to say that this is one of my favorite American Girl movies.
