Movie Reviews of What Girls Learn

Movie Review: "What Girls Learn" needed to include a spanking
Summary: 2 Stars

This movie is cliche and tedious--with a storyline and dialogue reminiscent or an after-school special. Scott Bakula and Elizabeth Perkins are always good, and their performances salvage a rather unconvincing film.

The major flaw in this movie is the central focus on the daughter, Tilden. I suppose the intention was for us to empathize first with her difficulties getting used to a stepfather--and later--with her mother's breast cancer. But this homely little girl is mean, nasty and hostile from start to finish to almost everyone. There are many "teen angst" movies, but they somehow find a way to make the character likeable--or help the audience identify with her plight. With this film you spend two hours waiting for "what girls learn" to include someone teaching this girl to stop being such a selfish, self-centered brat. I am sure this was not the intent of the director of this film, but this little girl's sour look and bad behavior kept me from buying into this story--or caring about her situation.

Summary of What Girls Learn

For two sisters growing up is a painful lesson. Two teenage girls must come to terms with their stepfather when their mother is struck by illness. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 03/28/2006 Starring: Elizabeth Perkins Run time: 114 minutes Rating: Pg
