SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
John Doe This was a cute bud sad film that I had rented may years ago, mainly cause it had Macaulay Culkin (from Home Alone) and Anna Chlumsky (whom I had never heard of at the time). This was a movie that I had liked for some reason, (but I HATE the awful music!) This is a story about friendship and many other things. I enjoyed it and I think you will too.I give 'My Girl' a 7/10.
Lord Subro It is a nice movie to watch when you wanna relax. The romance between two kids is shown in a kids' way. Showing the summer time and the ordinary things in kids' life, movie is not making u tensed. Even though it is not the kind of movie which builds up suspense and makes you curious about the ending, is very successfully captures the attention from beginning. You don't need to be patient to watch this movie. Veda is a little girl growing up in a funeral home who is pretty normal kid but growing up in funeral home and knowing her dad is working on dead bodies in their basements, has some effects on her. on the other hand, Thomas J. is very simple fragile kid who is allergic to everything and follows his routine all the time. The movie might sound common and boring but it has a twist on it. Worth watching
Arreis Nitsuga The story of friendship in this movie is so beautiful and I can't restrain myself from crying towards the end of the movie. Both Vada and Thomas is a good actor.The movie is great, but I think the friendship of Vada and Thomas J. is not concrete enough to make it heart-wrenching at the end maybe because there isn't enough laughter in their days that makes people reminisce about when the tragedy happen. but still, the tragedy is good enough to make people cry.But their friendship is great and so tragic that it is almost unfair to Vada for losing important people from her life.
Chloe Ibbetson I gave this film a 10/10 it was really moving and realistic! This film is so brilliant I can watch it over and over again! Every thing about this film is so amazing the cast, the plot and the whole film is just so remarkable! New comer Anna Chlumsky (Vada Sultenfuss) did a really brilliant job in this film she really brought the character of Vada to life! And Macaulay Culkin (Thomas J. Sennett) really brought the character of Thomas J to life he also did an amazing job in this film! I totally recommend this film to anyone who loves heart warming family films. This film is just so Beautiful.I don't know what to say all I can say is if you haven't already go and watch this film it's magical! The friendship of Vada and Thomas J is beautiful!
