Read MoreMy advice, take the movie as just a movie, and not an interpretation of the book. The book is absolutely amazing, and I find myself screaming "Anne Welles would never do that!!" when I watch the movie. However, its fun. Not the most genious film ever by any means, and I'd love to see a remake made that paid a little more tribute to the classic novel, but its enjoyable to watch from time to time.

Read MoreA total guilty pleasure, this movie has the highest density of "howlers" of any movie beside Richard Burton and Joey Heatherton's "Bluebeard". The music is almost unbearable -- with titles like "I'll Plant My Own Tree", you get the idea. But it's done so sincerely and intensely, with some pretty incredible gowns and cinematography that I can't help but enjoy wallowing in it. The bonus disc is fabulous as well.

The movie wasn't Oscar material, as the actors now admit, but it was amusing to watch. Patty Duke chews up the scenery like crazy. Seeing the brightly colored furniture and clothes of the 60s was reason enough to see the film. Look out for small roles by a young Richard Dreyfuss and other stars of the day. Now GIVE ME A DOLL!

Read MoreAfter reading the book I was highly dissapointed with the movie's interpretation of the storyline, but hey that happens most of the time anyways with books to movies. Book aside, this is still a good juicy movie. The storyline flows much too quickly, but again that may be because I've read the book twice and I was expecting more. If you are into the trashy/celebrity scene, this is a good classic to rent. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I remember watching this movie with my mother, many years ago and it always makes me cry. I would love to see an up-to-date remake of this movie to bring it into the 2000's. Very good chick flick! WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

Read MoreThis was one fun movie. There's some elements that don't work, like Neely's confrontation wtih Ted Casablanca and her nervous breakdown towards the end of the film, but besides that its got great costumes, great music, and good acting (if sometimes ill-advised) to make a fairly entertaining if somewhat shallow film. The very, very best of the very, very worst Hollywood has to offer. Neeeellly O' Hara!!!!!! Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
