Summary: One of the BEST ever!
Review: Stepmom is a great movie. The actors in it are GREAT! You can really feel the tension between Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts when they are fighting. The movie is also really heartwarming when the whole family gets together. It teaches you to be there for the people you care about, no matter what. It is an all around, AWESOME movie.

Summary: THIS MOVIE PACKS AN EMOTIONAL WALLUP!
Review: Stepmom is definitely NOT your usual cliche'd movie about divorce and how it affects the children involved; it's MUCH, MUCH more! Emotions run high throughout the film and the bitter tension, jealousy, and friction between the characters is so strong it's almost palpable! The acting in this movie is excellent; the dialogue is so believable, that you almost feel like you're evesdropping on real people's lives! My opinion? If you haven't seen this movie yet - you REALLY, REALLY should! (Just be sure to have a box of tissues handy. You're going to need them)!

Summary: WELL DONE
Review: SUSAN SARANDON IS ABSOLUTLY PERFECT IN THE ROLE OF THE MOTHER SOON TO BE "REPLACED" BY HER EX-HUSBAND'S YOUNG & PRETTY GIRLFRIEND. A LOT OF EMOTION IN THIS MOVIE ; A LOT OF GOOD LESSONS TOO.IF ONLY SOME WOMEN COULD BE AS SMART AS THE WOMAN PLAYED BY SUSAN SARANDON MAYBE LESS CHILDREN WOULD SUFFER... A CHARACTER APART FROM BEING SMART IS BRAVE & COURAGEOUS ; AND SUSAN SARANDON IS PLAYING THIS ROLE SO WELL ; SHE DESERVED AN OSCAR FOR THIS... JULIA ROBERTS IS GOOD BUT ONCE YOU'VE SEEN HER IN ONE MOVIE YOU'VE SEEN HER IN ALL OF HER OTHER MOVIES ; IT'S LIKE YOU DON'T SEE THE CHARACTERS SHE'S PALYING BUT HER AS SHE IS ; IS THAT A SIGN OF BAD ACTING ! THE CHILDREN ARE WONDERFUL ; VERY WELL CAST ! GOOD MOVIE VERY EMOTIONNAL.

Summary: Roberts and Sarandon Triumph
Review: Isabel (Roberts) is the photographer live-in girlfriend of Luke (Harris). Luke is divorced from Jackie (Sarandon). Jackie and Luke's two children, moody preteen Anna (Malone) and wanna-be magician Ben (Aiken) are rotten to Isabel because that is how her mother feels. When Jackie becomes terminally ill, however, she decides that the relationship between Isabel and the children must improve so that they will still have a mother figure. Touching well acted movie.

Summary: Balance of tension and sweetness
Review: This movie is a tough one to watch because many of the scenes (especially during the first hour) are riddled with tension -- the kind you feel when you've just confronted someone head-on. Everyone fights -- parents, children, ex-wife and girlfriend, stepmother and children; you almost feel like you've been inadvertantly caught with a friend when she decides to have a major argument with a family member -- makes you want to slip out of the room until the storm is over. Chris Columbus did a wonderful job directing this film -- the arguments were uncomfortable, but they were supposed to be. Better, there were some poignant moments that really worked. STEPMOM is a realistic fable with just a touch of magic to make the audience happy. The cast was superb -- Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon gave great performances, and the kids (not sure of their names) were both adorable and the biggest brats you've ever seen -- a great combination. Ed Harris was curiously absent from the film, showing up in less than half the scenes. This movie is everything a drama is supposed to be: funny, moving, difficult, sad. Chris Columbus captured some beautiful moments, and some hard ones as well, making the audience better for the journey.

Summary: This is Real Life Stuff!
Review: Here is a movie that probably most people can relate to, as its main plot focuses on relationships--& complicated ones at that. This is a movie about real-life situations that will cause a person to take pause for thought, for sure. The performances by everyone were OUTSTANDING, even provoking me to tears, & for me, that's a rare happening! I definitely, highly recommend this one, & without me revealing the plot or other juicy details, I'll just say it's worth watching, & I very much enjoyed this one. I've watched it more than once, & know I'll be watching it again probably several more times sometime in the future. Isn't one you'll soon forget, as a lot of movies oftentimes are very forgettable.

Summary: Another good film about relationships
Review: This is yet another good film about a difficult subject: relationships. We all have them, or try to have them. Outside our own range of experience, we can only guess at some of the things that are going on. You may be thinking about getting a divorce, you may be flirting with the idea of a separation, but until you get in there and do it and live it, you really have no idea what it's all about. Is it possible that films like "Stepmom" can help us make wiser decisions? Wouldn't it be nice. Both Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts give tremendous performances in this film about the end of the beginning of something new. That it might turn out to include everyone involved, for a while, leads to both a delightful discovery and a poignant counterpoint to the original breakdown. This is a film in which everyone concerned is asked to move forward, whatever their ages. It just may be that we the audience, are also moved forward a tad, at the same time. Excellent cinema.

Summary: Awesome
Review: This movie was sooo sad! It also had some funny parts. I don't agree that Julia Roberts and her new husband didn't show affection. What about when the girl says she saw them taking a shower together?

Summary: Great Movie
Review: Once again, it was a stunning performance by all actors, especially by Julia Roberts and Susan Serandon. This captures true feelings of the whole family, especially that of Susan's character and Julia's character. This was a great movie and I reccomend it for people of all ages!
