So on Tuesday night, I went to see The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants with Claire. There were some complications involving getting to the theater (apparently Richmond Centre movie theater wants its patrons to walk around the ENTIRE mall to see a movie), and then technical difficulties that managed to selectively obscure only the dialogue (this persisted for the previews, and then first 15 minutes of the film), but all in all I really liked it. Granted, I love the book. That may skew my perceptions. But the movie deviates from the book quite a lot, and is still really, really good. It doesn't hurt that the love interests are really cute (an area in which The Princess Diaries sorely missed target), and the casting of the four girls was excellent. And it had the type of happy ending that makes you feel all squishy inside.
And we got free passes to another movie, courtesy of the sound problems! Wooo free movie!
Summary
Type of movie - Teen, girl, romantic.
Hot love interests? - Yes.
Appropriate watching mood - Girly, romantic, hopeful.
Appropriate people to see with - Girlfriends, possibly Moms.
Incite body issues? - Three "sisters" will, one won't. Good for Hollywood, really.
