Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Unhelpful Yoda This film is underrated. Yes it is a chick flick but I personally think the film can be appreciated by both sexes. Bette Midler plays CC Bloom and Barbara Hershey plays Hilary Whitney. Both are from very different upbringings. CC is demanding, intense but has a good heart, she is desperate for stardom and has been performing since she was young. Hilary is smart, headstrong and a lawyer. They both meet when they are on holiday in Atlantic City when they are teenagers and remain in contact through letters til adulthood. A lot happens through their friendship, but they always remain friends. In my opinion at the end of the film really shows the true extent of their friendship. Hilary has no one but CC and her daughter and CC is there for her til the end. It is a very emotional film but in a way happy because you know Hilary died knowing CC will look after her daughter and they can share memories of her forever.

Parker Lewis A thousand points of light, and that's what I think of when I reminisce about Beaches, the movie that brought many to tears. The song "Wing beneath my wings" is a classic, and was written in 1982 by Jeff Silbar and Larry Henley. Colleen Hewett, an Australian, recorded it in 1983.I wish there was a sequel. There's a sequel book "I'll be there" but what about the movie adaptation? With so many X-Men, Furious cars, Invincibles or whatever, we need a sequel to usher in the next phase of the USA. Also I would like to see who is cast in a sequel. Will Bette Midler make an appearance or just a cameo?Maybe John Pierce can even make an appearance and cause trouble if you know what I mean.

Neil Welch The ambitious singer CC and the rich, but shy Hillary meet as 11-year olds, and embark on a life-long friendship, throughout relationships and splits, career ups and downs, romantic rivalries, financial rollercoasters and, ultimately, a dose of Glamorous Hollywood Fatal Disease.This film is a tearjerker chickflick of some renown, and I have never seen it until now (2016) despite in being released 28 years ago. This has not been deliberate: I may not be part of the target demographic for tearjerker chickflicks, but I am not closed to their appeal. In fact, I was quite looking forward to shedding a tear or two, and the old bottom lip quivered from time to time in anticipation as the rather soapy events of the story unfolded.And then it got to the point where the inevitable took place, and I sat there, resolutely unmoved. Given that the whole point of the movie was, well, you know what the point was, I felt that it was delivered with such tasteful lack of obviousness that it carried little emotional weight. I know that this is not the case for others, but I was quite disappointed not to feel more.Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey are both fine.

hiris I saw this movie 20 times and all 20 times I cried. It's the best movie about friendship I've ever seen. From their childhood to the adult age, the movie tells the story of two women, CC Bloom and Hillary, from the beach in Atlantic City where they are 10 years old, to the gorgeous beach in Crystal Cove,California, where they spend the last summer together. Hillary dies at the end of the movie, leaving her daughter, Victoria, to CC, as a continuation of their friendship. The story is told with tenderness and every woman who has or ever had a real friendship can recognize herself. Bette Midler is just gorgeous! And the "Wind beneath my wings" makes this movie unforgettable.
