Audience Member Vera Johnson, played by Rachael Leigh Cook, is the most divine young woman you ever knew. She has such a sweet personality, and her thoughts are very lovely. Rachael's character makes this already great movie and movie idea, so much better and pleasing to take the time to watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was way too slow for me. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A rather conventionally told tale of female self-discovery that nearly works ---if not for the ridiculous and barf-inducing final scene. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A watchable movie but not that memorable Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Great movie. Fantastic story plot. Great cast. A personal favorite. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
