grace d I have never written a review on this website before, in fact I created an account SPECIFICALLY because I was so appalled at how low this film's rating is. This film is amazing. It has a beautiful and strong emotional core, interesting lead characters, AMAZING acting and really engaging shots that actually make it fun to watch. This film portrays grief and the relationship between the two girls really beautifully and tastefully and yet this is still a fun film to watch. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/01/25 Full Review Cookie V While I can agree it might not be fully flushed out, this movie has so much to offer. I watched it in theaters as an 11 year old girl and understood most of the messages, but rewatching it last night for the first time in 20 years as a 33 year old therapist…the depictions of the two are spot on given their lived experiences…plus the chemistry, the emotion, the silliness…so good 🩷 Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/29/25 Full Review J M This movie has a lot of heart and emotion, so it’s going to go over some people’s heads. Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning are an irresistibly charming duo in this underrated classic. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Esmeralda V Me pasa que cuando estoy en momentos nefastos hay alguien o algo que me ayuda a no sentirme sola mandándome mensajes al aire o señales, por así decirlo (soy muy supersticiosa). Esta película no es una excepción. Ha llegado cuando más la necesitaba. Quiero decir, es una película maravillosa que para mí, ha sido un cambio de perspectiva totalmente nuevo. Me encanta la idea de que Molly y Ray se conocieron cuando ambas lo necesitaban, por eso menciono mi experiencia. Ambas son el reflejo de la otra y las dos se complementan perfecto, pero respondiendo de forma diferente a un miedo común: y ese es el sentirse vulnerable. Molly responde evadiendo su realidad, es decir, no asumiendo las responsabilidades de ser adulta. Además, ella todavía no quiere dejar ir a su niña interior, no acepta que es adulta porque siente que no ha vivido una infancia "correcta" por así decirlo. Por otro lado tenemos a Ray, quién responde a este mismo miedo de una forma muy distinta. Intenta ser madura y aparentar ser fuerte, cuando es solo una niña que en el fondo, desea divertirse. Ray quiere ser mayor, Molly quiere ser una niña. Y no es que quieran, es que sus miedos les han obligado a querer. Lo más interesante es que cuando niña y adulta se juntan, conectan de una forma preciosa. Sus almas pedían ayuda y el destino escuchó. Las junto de tal forma que Ray salvó a Molly y Molly salvó a Ray. Se conocieron cuando más lo necesitaban. Tenían cosas en común, por ejemplo, padres ausentes o el miedo que acechaba a ambas. Entiendo tanto a las dos que se me derrite él alma de una forma delicada pero nostálgica..Ha sido como un abrazo a mi alma está película, porque no hay mejor terapia que sentirte escuchada y sobretodo menos sola. Sin duda la volveré a ver porque me encanta y define muy bien lo que muchas personas hemos experimentado. Me fascinó, bye. 🩷♾️✨ Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/25 Full Review Nim T I was interested in watching the movie due to nostalgia of Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fanning. As a child actress, Dakota Fanning had a lot of roles that felt it was meant for her to act. In this one, she played a child that was also acting as an adult due to the lack of love she has from family. Brittany Murphy was an adult but acted as a child because she did not know what to do within her life. The movie is more of a drama than comedy because it highlights transitions that shaped Murphy's character and it felt as if reincarnation happened. The plot felt obvious, which I will give critics for that reason, but nevertheless the audiences still liked it because of how it resonated with them. It is also a way to remember Brittany Murphy's acting, despite being short lived, it is still memorable. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/07/25 Full Review Danielle G Very underrated here. I watched this movie growing up and loved it, revisited it now and it's still a favorite. It deep, it'll pull at your heartstrings. Great acting. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
