Summary: My Girl, My Goodness!
Review: I loved this movie despite Ed Asner being totally mis-cast as an 11 year old girl obcessed with alcohol. The movie has one hilarious scene as Thomas J. befriends a bee. Hey, what can you do? Kids... Add a star if you

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My Homework
Review: The movie "My Girl" is an excellant movie directed by Howard Zieff and starring Anna Chlumsky. This movie is about a girl, Vada, who's father decides to remarry. It basicly tells about her adjusting to the fact. The ending is very unexpected. This movie is great to watch and it is a wondreful tear-jearker.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favourite move EVER!
Review: This movie is good too the end! It shows the uncertainties of being a young girl, and the troubles of having growing up and having a father remarry, etc. Anna Chlumsky does an excellent job in this movie, and Macaulay Culkin plays a very convincing best friend. This movie will make you laugh and make you cry!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wonderful Film
Review: This is the kind of movie you can watch more than once and get teary-eyed each time. Macaulay Culkin is Thomas J., an adorable little guy who is best friends with Veda, a hypochondriacal youngster determined to marry her creative writing teacher someday. Veda, played to perfection by newcomer, Ana Chlumsky, will make you laugh and cry. Her big, expressive eyes and soulful face are what childhood innocence is made of.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Dan Akroyd are the mismatched, yet perfect together pair of adults in Veda's life.

NOTE: This film is a good introduction to the topic of death for young children. It deals with the reality of loss in a very gentle, yet straightforward way and almost makes it easy for an adult to talk about the subject with a curious child.

The movie's soundtrack is also great, filled with all the best hits of the era (1970's)such as Wedding Bell Blues and of course, My Girl.

The sequel, My Girl 2, however, was not nearly as good, and the originality of this first film is completely lost in Part 2.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: My favorite movie
Review: this is my absolute favorite movie of all time, the first time i saw it was when i was Vada's age, 11, and i remember completely relating to her and the things she was going through. I loved it then and i love it now, i have seen it probably 50 or more times and i still can't get enough of it. the acting and dialogue are both excellent, but Anna Chlumsky is definitely the standout in this movie. I remember after i got out of the theater the first time i saw it I wanted to be just like her.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My Girl....or My movie for life
Review: I viewed this movie for the first time, when I was five years old. I can honestly say I remembered how sad it was, even though I didn't pick up on anything as distinct as enunciation or anything. Later on, I remember that I had enjoyed it when I was younger, and watched it once again. Through the sadness and pain and reality of this film, the characters shine through with the recognition they deserve. Anna Chlumsky has a wonderful debut as the precocious 11-year-old obsessed, or rather frightened by death. Her best friend, Thomas Jay is portrayed by Macaulay Culkin. Macualay does a great job, although, you'll be stuck on the character of Vada(Anna Chlumsky). Aykroyd and Curtis are also an awesome supporting cast. The movie takes place in Pennsylvania in 1972, summertime. Sadness and confusion about death overtake Vada, and when too many strange events happen, Vada's estranged father who doesn't understand her, must comprehend her. A fantastic and memorable movie! A must-see for all who have a taste for serious drama, or just want to relive the seventies fashions! Whatever the case, a guaranteed hit!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Touching
Review: I just love this movie. I have a feeling its a bit childish, but the humour and amazing acting is enough to keep me from turning the TV off. All kiddin' aside, I just love it! I've seen it about 45 times and can't get enough of it. When I discovered that Vada was 11 years old I nearly jumped out of my seat! I thought she was like six years old! I guess this just proves that movies are magic. I recommend this heartwarming movie to everyone and everything, even the most pessimistic of them all. You're just going to love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Exellent, but sad
Review: This is one of the best films I ever saw, but I still cry every time I see it.
