Movie Review

Brittany Murphy has been fairly consistent over the last five years, but never with much success. Though few of her movies can be regarded as terrible (Cherry Falls, Summer Catch), few can be considered very good, either. The surprise hit Just Married was surprisingly decent, and Don't Say a Word was entertaining enough. Unfortunately, Uptown Girls can add itself to the former list - it just ain't that good.

This movie was the first to make me cry! It is one of my favorite movies of all time no matter what this critic thinks.

It's not as bad as most people think... unless you hate "chick flicks." The movie was very cute, and it's very heartwarming.
