Harriet Deltubbo My bet is that you will laugh, cry and cheer. I thought this was cute and not bad at all. Like other great dramadies, it is filled with charm, innocence and drama and romance. I thought it was a nice mix. The casting is great and Demi Moore gives a performance of a lifetime. It is an emotionally uplifting movie that will raise your morale. Unfairly dismissed by some as formulaic, this kind of character piece needs a tight focus so all of the nuances of the characters shine through. I found it entertaining and it left me with a warm feeling. I thought that there was really good chemistry between the main characters.
jessegehrig I'm not this movie's intended audience so I don't know if its fair for me to review it, I mean obviously since I am writing a review ultimately I've already decided its fair enough, so here goes- Nope. Movie dumb. Hey what it is is a toothless bloodless story and Rosie O'Donnell. The plot is just, I mean its crumby ,its a feeble by-the-numbers snore. The characters are forgettable and the setting is obviously a stage. My problem with Rosie O'Donnell is she can't act, she plays herself, which would be fine if she was a nice person, but she is not, Rosie sucks. OK, if you are looking for a grandmother friendly movie or a movie to show to like preteen girls at some ill-conceived church youth group thing, then Now And Then is the perfect movie for you!
doctorjagger This movie is horrible all over. It is compared to "Stand By Me". That movie is a classic. This one does not even come close to measuring up to SBM. Some say this is an inspirational movie for young girls. Just so you know, they are wrong! If you're a parent do not show this to your child. It promotes sexism in the worst ways. The girls as children are all persecuted by boys. This is taken to the absolute extreme. This is not like real life. Every interaction with the boys these girls have they act as if they are being attacked. In response they proceed to become violent physically, verbally, and by their actions. This is a horrible movie and a bad influence. 0/10. Do not watch it.
Lucien Lessard Four long time friends (Demi Moore, Rosie O'Donnell, Melaine Griffen and Rita Wilson) are reunited, since they didn't seen each other in years. Once these friends decide to talk about their past. They talk about the best summer they ever had as Kids (Gaby Hoffman, Christina Ricci, Thora Birch and Ashleigh Aston Moore) and the difficulties they had growning up.Directed by Leslie Linka Glatter made an familiar, coming of age dramatic comedy. Which some might say this is the female version of "Stand by Me" but towed down version of it. Good performances highlights this, especially from the young cast. There's also a fine 1970's soundtrack adds to the enjoyment of the movie.DVD has an sharp anamorphic Widescreen (1.85:1) transfer (also in Pan & Scan) and an lively Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. DVD's only features are the original theatrical trailer and cast & crew information. This film was an modest hit at the box office. The movie is entertaining, especially for the pre-teen girls. Adults will likely relish this picture as well. Demi Moore is also one of the producers of this film. Brandan Fraser appears unbilled. (*** 1/2 out of *****).
