| "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants," based on the series of novels by the same name by Ann Brashares, chronicles one magic summer in the lives of best friends Carmen, Tibby, Lena, and Bridget. Although the four are apart for the summer (Lena is visiting family in Santorini, Greece, Bridget attends a soccer camp in Mexico, and Carmen visits her divorced father), they are linked by a pair of magic jeans that fits each of them perfectly. The four soon draw up rules for their sisterhood ("no washing the pants, no one but the wearer may remove the pants,"), and keep in touch in the form of letters and narratives.
The film is split between the adventures of the four: Lena's first love, Tibby's friendship with a spunky, terminally ill girl, Bridget's crush and pursuit of an attractive soccer coach, and Carmen's struggle to deal with her father remarrying. The narrative is fairly well balanced and the pacing doesn't lag. There is no overly objectionable content (several kisses, minor swear words), and parents may find themselves enjoying this sweet summer film as well. |

| My 13 year old daughter read this book and couldn't wait for the movie! I wasn't ecpecting too much when we saw it, but I was in for a wonderful surprise! I cried like a baby, laughed like a teenager and left thinking about the movie for days! Can't wait to buy our own copy. |

| Some may think I'm a little partial being that I saw this movie with one of my best friends who's daughter is Blake Lively's (Bridget's) best friend since childhood. Perhaps I had a more personal connection to it than some because of that, but I am well out of my teens and it was still one of my favorite movies of all time. Definately one I will own. The actresses in this movie truly pull you into their world and no matter what your age, each of us can relate to the sisterhood one way or another. It's so captivating and heart-felt. It's really about life, not so much about "pants". It's a must-see, even if you just rent it. I can't wait until it comes out on DVD so I can experience it again. This time with my mom, sister, and sister-in-law, who haven't seen it yet. It's gotta be the most perfect "Girls' night IN" movie ever! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. |

| Just see it and you'll see what I mean. It's an amazing film even for someone who is closer to 30 than these fours girls' age. |
