Review: this is a great comeback for mariah carey were she gains much love for her charactor i have taken this review from the fantastic site mariah buzz
mariahs latest movie
Firstly, we're introduced to Meg (Mira Sorvino) who is making her move to Statten Island in New York after her past has forced her to go beyond and away from her home in St Louis, Missouri. Though we don't yet know Meg's story, it's obvious that whatever reason she's moving to New York, it is not a happy one. Moving in with her grandmother until she finds work, Meg soon enough finds herelf waitressing in the upper class Le Santilino's - an Italian restaurant where Meg finds true friends in the form of fellow waitresses Kate (Melore Walters) and Raychel (Mariah Carey). Friends are not the only unexpected people Meg stumbles across while working in the restaurant. She soon realises that the restaurant is more or less a front to cover up the drug dealings and murders that occur within. Before she can turn to run, Meg is swallowed immediately into the underground world and through her medical training, is seen by the bosses as a valuable asset - if she can keep her mouth shut. Meg tries to understand exactly what Santilino's is all about from Raychel but, the tart with heart just blows it off as usual business. As long as the money is good, "it makes up for all the times I get stiffed," explains Raychel. Waitressing in the restaurant for ten years, Raychel is a solid part of the so-called, 'family'. A tough talking New Yorker who does what she can to get by - even if it means confronting one of the regular customers, and mobsters, in a display of power where she comes out on top. It would be easy at first to blow Mariah's character off but, her portrayal of Raychel packs enough credibility to make you care enough for her just as much as she does for her pals, Meg and Kate, - especially by the end of the movie Kate, at first, comes off as vulnerable and shy - cute - but, as we later find out, there's a secret she's been keeping that will place the friendship of these three women in danger of falling apart forever. The climax of the movie seemed to roll by a little too quickly but, overall, Wise Girls played out well. There were really no uneccessary scenes that dragged along. Fast paced, we learned the story of all three women, we witness their friendships grow enough to feel for each of them and, with a few twists thrown in for good measure, we're treated to a movie that is memorable and entertaining.

Summary: BEST MOVIE EVER
Review: This is a great movie. I saw it on cinemax. Mariah is an amazing actress, this is a good comeback for her. Mira is great also, but she seemed a little unbelievable sometimes. Melora pulls it off nicely. This movie is about a girl named Meg who is very sad(i am not telling why), then she gets a job at a resturaunt where she meets sassy Raychel(MARIAH CAREY!) and Kate(Melora Walters). They all become friends. With a lot of twists and turns this movie turns out great. It is great. The only bad thing about the DVD is WIDESCREEN!!!

Summary: Mariah shines
Review: This is my favorite movie! It has been for months.
I'm still not tired of seeing it. Mariah Carey is AMAZING in this movie compared to "Glitter" (which i also like, but her acting isn't as good)....
"Wisegirls" turned out better than I expected and I think all 3 women should have an award for this!

Summary: Love Surprises
Review: This is one of those simple movies with subtle depth. I missed WiseGirls when it came out and just caught it on HBO. Mira Sorvino was wonderful, as always, and, I'm embarrassed to say, I didn't recognize Mariah Carey so I was able to enjoy her solid performance without getting distracted by the baggage of her "persona." It's clean, moving, intelligent and thought-provoking. There's a bit of "Hollywood" in it, but so what? When I see these great movies that I somehow missed in the theater, I always go to Roger Ebert to see what he said about them and was surprised when I was unable to find a review. ?? I can't wait to rent it to catch the first ten minutes that I missed and see it over again with my husband.

Summary: It wasn't in theaters ... why?
Review: This movie is AMAZING!!! Mira delivers a performance that will floor you. She is utterly fantastic in this film. And Mariah, who was also amazing in GLITTER, is strangley even more fantastic in this movie. Its a smaller role, but her performance is perfect and believable to the point where you go "She reminds me of ..." This movie is fantastic. And yet it went straight to DVD and I can NOT figure out why ... this movie deserves to be in theaters. But instead a great movie like this will get no recognition, but KANGAROO JACK is in theaters ... this world boggles my mind.

Summary: Good enough to buy, Mira ,Mariah, and Melora These girls and
Review: This movie is great. I saw it at sundance when the movie and Mariah recieved a standing ovation. It was funny and it was gross when the mafie came to play in the kitchen. Mariah is great! Nobody can put her down. The girls seem so real like you are watching them in real life. Before I knew it I wanted to see it again...I did in Greece..I was vacationing and I saw the poster! Everyone loved it and it was in subtitles...I can't wit for my own copy....It is worth the money and you will want to se it over again..

Summary: Wonderful
Review: This movie was so wonderful. The acting was perfect (not overdone, as in Glitter), the story was right on, and it was charming, funny, sad, and everything in between. I admit i'm a huge Mariah fan, but this movie really was good. Buy or rent it.
