A great movie that followed a great book! The only character that I could think that may not be the best role model is Bridget because she is flirty with guys and other stuff.... The situation with Tibby made me cry!

What Parents Need to Know
About The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
Parents need to know that characters deal with difficult issues, including a parent's suicide, disease/death of a close friend, a father's remarriage, seduction, and first time sex (this last is indicated rather than depicted explicitly). The film includes tense family scenes, with focus on reconciliation after angry flare-ups. Characters use some mild language (including "suck" and "ass") and drink.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the film's depiction of loyalty and loss, especially as each of the girls loses something precious, but also gains experience and faith in herself and her best friends. How do you support your friends when they feel sad or angry? How can you be mad at someone but also, at the same time, still love him or her? How can loss also be an occasion for learning, sharing, and emotional maturation?

I really enjoyed these books and the movie(s) but I am an adult. My child is an only child and my opinion was that I was *shocked* when I saw it listed as appropriate for her age group. However, if my daughter had older siblings in upper middle school or high school, perhaps already exposed to these types of situations as a result, then this movie might be appropriate with parental discussion.

The Best Movie
This movie is amazing. Bee is in "love" or more likely lust with an older forbidden guy. Sex is implied with Bee and Eric. It is off screen. NO one says if it happens. Older watchers might just guess that. Younger kids probably won't even catch it. There is very very little language, if any. Carmen throws a rock at her dad's window. But he definatly deserved it. I think everyone should watch this movie. Several times.

This is one of the best movies ever made. Not to mention the beautiful scenery filmed in Greece.

loved it!!
I first watched this movie with my aunt. It was so good! I got it the following Christmas. I highly recommend the books to 13+ girls. This movie has a really good message. I don't agree with some of the reviews protective parents wrote, but I won't say anything bad about them. All in all, this movie was really good!

I laughed and cried. Very entertaining
This is probably best rented for a tween slumber party. It's not good enough to buy, but too good to not see. Obviously, there will be very little to interest guys, but anyone who has read or heard about the books will want to see it. P.S. It is definitely more suited to tweens than small children and older teenagers.
