it could have been better...
ok, considering how much i loved the book, (not the revised edition) i expected way more! i mean, it cut out lots of cool parts, and hello! the scene where jo rejects laurie is like, totally off! lol, i mean, they cut and junked it up! don't get me wrong, it's a cute movie, but they could have made it waaaaaay better. but that's just my opinion.

A really nice book and a colorful movie. (LOL) Anyway it is a nice, perfectly clean book/movie for all ages-- albeit ages 8 and up so they understand it a bit. I found it rather sad it in the book that Laurie and Jo didnt get together. But its clean, i swear. (In books, Im a clean freak)

Heartwarming
This touching film was created in the same vein as the novel - an honest but optimistic look at the 19th century and an affirmation of the power of love. Though sad at moments, the value of the film is not in the events but rather how the March family reacts and copes.
