DVD Review: Unreastlic in a sitcom matter
Summary: 1 Stars
Movie critics panned this movie and I am not suprised. It's really bad. it's too unreastlic and everything in it-the subject matter is handed in a very sitcom matter and not taken seriously. It bashes men too and makes fun of them. There's a lot of male bashing in this movie. I may sound outspoken, but seriously this movie is garbage. People aren't like this, men and friends and realtionships and life aren't like this. There's not even a hint of realism in this trash. I think the director is a lesbian and she probably is. She basicaly bashes men and boys, and this movie is very negative. It cuts men off and I hate that. I believe in girl power and all that, but we need men in our lives. We need husbands and brother and sons and girlfriends too and plenty of them. We need normal, stable lives. This movie is terrible. it's very dark and disturbing and it's got a lot of lesbian undertones.DVD Review: Not Even Close!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is quite possibly the worst book to movie translation. There are so many unbelievably HUGE differences that make the movie absolutely nothing like the book. One of the worst movies I've seen. DVD Review: good
Summary: 5 Stars
I was thrown off in the beginning after having just read the book, but when I realized that it was not supposed to be like the book, then it was better the second time I watched it.
Description of Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (Widescreen Edition)
New York playwright Sidda Lee Walker is a long way from her Louisiana hometown, but an even greater emotional distance separates her from her mother Vivi. The Ya-Yas - sworn lifelong friends of Vivi - stage an unorthodox "intervention" to bring daughter and mother together in this warm, winning adaptation of Rebecca Well's bestsellers, written for the screen and directed by Thelma & Louise Academy Award winner Callie Khouri.Grab your tissues and send the guys away, because Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood is the most pedigreed chick flick since Steel Magnolias. You can tell by the title and the novelish names of the Louisiana ladies from Rebecca Wells's precious bestseller. First there's Sidda (Sandra Bullock), a successful playwright still wrestling with her manipulative mother, Vivi (Ellen Burstyn), after a traumatic upbringing. Then there's longtime friends Teensy (Fionnula Flanagan), Necie (Shirley Knight), and Caro (scene-stealer Maggie Smith), from Vivi's secret club of "Ya-Ya Priestesses," together since childhood and determined to heal the rift between Sidda and her mom. Through an ambitious flashback structure (including Ashley Judd as the younger Vivi), screenwriter and first-time director Callie Khouri (who wrote Thelma & Louise) establishes a rich context for this mother-daughter reunion. There's plenty of humor to temper the drama, which inspires Bullock's best work in years. Definitely worth a look for the curious, but only fans of Wells's fiction will feel any twinge of loyalty. --Jeff Shannon
