Product Description

Review

The bar for teen melodramas may be set very, very low, but by any benchmark, this multi-character summer-vacation saga is a warm, winning, unusually savvy pubescent-chick flick anchored by four talented young actresses. The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants takes a potentially saccharine premise -- four best friends make a summer pact to keep in touch via a pair of jeans that magically fits each of them -- and leavens it with healthy doses of humor, wit, and realism. Director Ken Kwapis may not exactly break the mold, but he has a deft sense of pacing and setting that keeps each of the girls' four summer adventures distinctly her own. Better still, he realizes that in order to keep his audience equally interested in each storyline, he needs to create a palpable camaraderie among the foursome at the beginning of the film; it's rare to see a girl-buddy movie where the girls in question actually seem like well-matched friends. The movie strays into mawkish "life lessons" territory near its (overlong) ending, but even here, the performers -- in particular the natural, unforced America Ferrera -- save the movie from any potential histrionics. And while this PG-rated Sisterhood isn't afraid to confront such issues as divorce, death, and sexual curiosity, it does so subtly, in a manner that won't necessarily raise the eyebrows of any preteens in the audience. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, Nov 15 2008
By SH (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews
Based on the novel by Anne Brashares, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is an enjoyable movie to watch, which girls would especially enjoy. It is about four friends that have been together since they were babies, and their first summer apart when they are seventeen years old.

Lena (Alexis Bledel) is shy and goes to visit her grandparents in Greece. Bridget (Blake Lively) is athletic and goes to sports camp that is in Mexico. Tibby (Amber Tamblyn) is sour-tempered and decides to work during the summer and make a "suckumentary." Carmen (America Ferrera) is a Porto Rican girl that has low self-esteem, and decides to visit her father. The pants travel between the four girls, keeping them connected in some way.

The four girls learn and experience love and loss, so it is interesting to see how much one summer changes a person when they are far apart.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sweet, intelligent, heart-warming film, Aug 26 2006
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is sort of a teen chick flick, but I still wanted to see it. I have a few sensitive bones in my body, I still feel like a teenager in many ways, I'm a sucker for sentimental notions, and, man oh man, that Alexis Bledel sure is pretty. And the film has Amber "Joan of Arcadia" Tamblyn in it, too. I certainly wasn't going to let a little thing like testosterone keep me from enjoying this film.

This is basically a story about four best friends spending a summer apart and doing a lot of growing up in the process. Oh, it's also about a pair of magical jeans. Don't get hung up on that, though; if there's one thing this book isn't, it's silly. It is instead a very rich and meaningful film about each character's maturation and growing understanding of the important things in life. This is not to say these girls are all ready to put away girlish things; the summer changes each of them, but they're still normal, healthy young people with their whole lives ahead of them - but they will be better able to appreciate the ups and downs their futures surely hold.

The girls themselves, lifelong friends, are very different. Lena (Alexis Bledel) is shy and reserved, Carmen (America Ferrera) is down-to-earth but a little bit of an outsider, Tibby (Amber Tamblyn) is rather negative and rebellious, and Bridget (Blake Lively) is a boy-crazy blonde who looks and acts 25. On their last day together before parting ways for the summer, the girls discover an amazing pair of jeans that impossibly fits each of their very different bodies perfectly. The only logical explanation is a magical one, so the girls vow to share the jeans over the summer and report back on the great strokes of luck the jeans will surely bring them. Lena gets them first because she is on her way across the world to Greece to stay with her grandparents. From there they go back to Tibby, who is stuck at home working on a documentary in betweens shifts at a retail store. Then they're off to Carmen in South Carolina, whose visit with her dad turns in to quite an ordeal. Last up is Bridget, who is attending a soccer camp south of the border. Each girl expects something wonderful to happen once she slips on the special jeans. Instead, the jeans seem to do more harm than good.

Lena meets a young man who expands her horizons and begins to free of her inhibitions, only to be told to stay away from him. Tibby finds herself saddled with a younger girl named Bailey (Jenna Boyd) who insinuates herself right into her whole documentary project. Carmen feels like a total outsider around her dad and the new family he is about to marry into, and Bridget's shameless pursuit of an older boy ends up opening deep hurts she has tried to pretend don't exist. So much for the magic jeans - but let's not be so hasty. Seeds have been sown, and each girl eventually does experience a bit of magic that transforms them and, in the end, brings them closer together.

This is a story of laughter, tears, and emotional growth. The film offers up many poignant moments, especially in terms of Tibby's summer experience, and it does a marvelous job of transitioning from one story to the next. The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is just a real winner, a marvelously impressive film that speaks not only to teenaged girls but to all of us who allow the movie into our hearts and minds. It deals with some pretty major themes in both straightforward and effectively subtle ways, and all of the girls turn in wonderful performances. Forget about the magical jeans (they're just a metaphor, you know); this movie is all about real life, friendship, and growing up. Anyone with a heart should be touched in some way by this film. I for one loved it.
