As sisterhoods go, "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" has a lot more going for it than the terminally lame "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood." Based on Ann Brashares' popular young adult novel (she's since written two sequels), the movie is about how four best friends spent their summer vacations before senior year in high school. And how each one's summer was made memorable thanks to a shared pair of jeans. Read the full review
Four teenage best friends share a vintage pair of jeans that magically fits them all as they go their separate ways over the summer.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: B-
"Anyone looking for a solid, unpretentious, entertaining film with some important messages could do a lot worse than this saga of girls gone wise."
The Palm Beach Post: B
"Chances are moviegoing Sisterhood members will not mind the Afterschool Special aspects of the four-pronged narrative. Anyone who does can while away the time enjoying the bleached white facades and charm-laden streets of Santorini."
The Palm Beach Post "Flick Chick"
"It's something I'd take my teenaged daughters to, if I had them, and something I'll be seeing with my 20- and 30-something friends, who only dreamed of something this good when we were young."
