DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Motompa Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Python Hyena Uptown Girls (2003): Dir: Boaz Yakin / Cast: Brittany Murphy, Dakota Fanning, Heather Locklear, Marley Shelton, Donald Faison: Formula driven crass gesture class and age. This film ages fast without the class. Brittany Murphy is relieved of her apartment when her rock star boyfriend fails to return and she is advised to get a job. She ends up being the nanny to a spoiled eight year old girl whose mother is never there for her. Predictable formula that has been done countless times with different faces. Directed by Boaz Yakin who previously made the overrated and boring Remember the Titans. Murphy is the one performance that passes even though her breaking through to Dakota Fanning is all too obvious. Fanning is talented but basically going through the motions of a role that ends up right where viewers predict she will and she will be stubborn the whole way. Supporting roles are the usual flat props. Marley Shelton plays Murphy's friend who offers room for her. Too bad she didn't offer a better script. Donald Faison plays another one of her friends and he isn't any more intriguing than Shelton. Heather Locklear is the biggest waste as Fanning's workaholic mother. How many times have we seen this transitions? The message doesn't matter because this film exists sorely for the employment opportunity for those unfortunate in the Hollywood job bank. Score: 3 / 10

moviesmovies567 This movie is fabulous. It is the film equivalent of cotton candy with some smartness. Sweet, funny ,and charming . Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning are a dynamo team in this film about growing up. It skips the hard stuff. It's a grade A chick flick with some brains that really shows an honest relationship between two women. The best thing about this film is how it flips the rolls. Fanning is the grown up and Murphy is the child. Switching the rolls in this films is a smart move and a refreshing one at that. Remember when you see this film to enjoy but not take this TOO seriously. It is a just chick flick. Go out and get this film to watch with your girls or gays. :) Its entertaining and fluffy comedy that has some sense of brains. Murphy is a great talent who has that lucile ball charm. She radiates the screen every time she is on. Such a great talent she was. Shame we lost her so early.

insomniac_rod A fairly entertaining movie that could be labeled as a chick flick. This is the kind of movie where one of the two main characters (this time a little girl) has a really bad attitude caused by familiar problems and some other issues. But everything changes when she meets a hot but naive baby sitter that will take care of her always. Also, she teaches her lessons of life and helps her get through the different problems of being a young girl as the film points it out.As a man who is into Horror I can only say that this movie is recommended for an audience that enjoys this kind of romantic comedies that always have a positive message and a happy ending.The performances are alright. Brittany Murphy is sexy as always and always manages to deliver a fun performance. She's pretty fine. Dakota Fanning is very annoying but the girl is a very good actress.Just watch this movie and enjoy... To be honest I didn't expect it to be this "good". Recommended for women specially.

dii_sandra I saw this movie on TV. I heard of Dakota Fanning. I knew she was a adorable girl. She really played the role of the grown up acting girl Ray. Her opposite, Brittany Murphy played a very cool role, Molly. Very rich, living a great life. I like the parts where Ray and Molly have fights because their actually quite different. I think it's sweet when you notice that Ray doesn't hate Molly. She's actually just happy that someone cares about her. If you haven't's seen this movie than watch it!! It's funny, sweet and there's also a bit of romance. Really good for a girls night. I don't think most of the boys will like it because it's a typical girl movie. And I love it!!!
