Summary: Great Film, Bad DVD.
Review: I would actually give this film 3 1/2 stars. Bette Middler is just incredible. Bette's timing is perfect. Watch Bette as someone is talking to her in a scene, her facial reactions alone are just hilarious. She is a comedic genius. There are few movies that actually make me LOL, Bette's performance makes me laugh everytime in this film. The child who played Bette was also wonderful...
Barbra Hershey pulls off the other half of the film OK, but it is Bette that makes this movie. Great soundtrack too! I always get teary eyed when Bette is singing "The Glory of Love" at the end of the movie, and waves up in the air to heaven at Hillary.
But why is this a barebones DVD release? This was a huge movie. there are no extras? WHY? Not even a trailer? The DVD gets only 1 star. The movie gets ***1/2. Boo to Touchstone for putting this classic film on such a cheap DVD.

Summary: Wonderful Film
Review: This is the second movie that I have ever cried from (first being "The Man in the Moon"). It shows the value of friendship, using both laughter and pain. I am disappointed, however, that I did not see Barbara Hershey in any other films that displayed such character.

Summary: Friendship that never dies.....
Review: I fell in love with the movie the first time that I saw it and still love it. One of the most brilliant performances by both Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey I have ever seen.I enjoyed very much seeing Bette showcase her voice in the movie because she has such a strong and beautiful voice, not to mention she is so hilarious. The scenes in this movie are emotional, uplifting, comedic and poignant. This film reminds of a special friendship that I have, and just watching the movie reminds me a lot of my relationship with my friend. It depicts that all friendships aren't perfect, everyone has their differences but that in the end that one special friend will always be there for you. In this world today, it is hard to find a friend like that. There were also some stellar performances by John Heard as the love interest of Bette Midler, Laine Kazane as Bette's mother Leona. What a wonderful movie, a real tearjearker and call it a chick flick if you want but this is a movie that was made for both men and women.

Summary: Everything Is Possible...
Review: "Beaches" is one of the most beautiful movies that I've ever seen in my life, and this soundtrack talk about these things: Friendship, Sincerity, Love and Good Things. The incredible voice of Bette Midler (as CC Bloom) makes everyone who listen these musics a journey to the world of this two best friends. "The Glory Of Love" is a song to think about love, no matter the time, the distance or anything!As Bette sings... You have to cry a little, laugh a little...that's all you'll do seeing and listen this album!

Summary: What can I say, one of the best tearjerkers ever made!
Review: An excellent movie, great music by Bette and many tears at the end. It shows that true friendship can be just as beautiful as love between a couple.
I have a suggestion to all of you that have seen this movie but not read the book, do it becuase it gives you even more details about the two characters and some extra stories that weren't told in the movie.
Listen to wind beneath my wings as you read the last two pages and it will make you cry even more than the movie did.

Summary: A true classic.
Review: This movie is a movie that has everything a good movie is supposed to have. It has a real story and truth to it, and it's beautifully acted and directed. Beaches is a movie about true friendship that outlasts through some of the most difficult times in life. After it all, you still have each other. This movie really peels down to the meaning of life in itself. It will make you laugh, smile, and cry ALOT. Friends come and go, but there is always one you are stuck with for life.

Summary: A great movie of a wonderful friendship
Review: I've always loved this movie, it shows how much a friendship can become stronger through letters.An 11 year old named CC Bloom(Bette Midler)is a great singer with alot of talent. She meets Hillary Whitney(Barbara Hershey)under the boardwalk, and when Hillary see's CC sing, she can't believe it.
They are seperated completely from eachother at both ends of the country, but through the letters they write to eachother, it seems that a friendship can grow even stronger.
Through fights of Jealousy, Marriages, Divorces, Deaths, and everyday things, the friendship still lingers between them. If you liked the movie, try the soundtrack.
