You won't be disappointed!

Such a frustrating disappointment

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (2008): Dir: Sanaa Hamri / Cast: Alexis Bledel, Blake Lively, America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, Lucy Hale: Nowhere near as fun as the original but it reunites the cast who still hold pleasant dispositions. In the first film, a pair of jeans that fit all four girls formed a connection when they went their separate ways. This time the jeans are almost unnecessary and one wonders how satisfactory the conclusion is. Alexis Bledel travels to Greece to perfect her art classes. At one point she is instructed to draw a nude portrait of a male whom she will strike up a much predicted romance. Blake Lively travels to Turkey to an archaeological site yet must accept hard facts about her mother. America Ferrera accidentally gets the lead in a play that lands her both a boyfriend as well as in hot water with the young lady for whom she was running errands for. Amber Tamblyn works at a video store and deals with a pregnancy scare. She too will also strike up potential romance. Lacy Hale plays the younger sister of the Bledel character who ends up losing the pants that become nonchalant. Directed by Sanaa Hamri with beautiful locations. While the first film regarded connection while away from each other during a summer, this sequel doesn't quite hold as strong a theme. Not the greatness of the original but it certainly travels the right path. Score: 5 / 10

The sisterhood continues in this beloved story as Tibby, Lena, Carmen and Bridget graduate high school and their talents and ambitions take them each down separate paths. Throughout the film they each have their own journey to self-discovery, yet learn to still rely on each other and stay the best of friends despite the changes that are taking place all around them. It's a story too about love and how it can be found in the most unexpected places, but sometimes to get there you have to experience loss and heartache along the way. There were so many life lessons learned about family, friendship and love. It was really great to finally see Carmen come out of her shell and show everybody who she really was and what she's made of and I'm glad she finally got to fall in love this time too. I was also glad to see Tibby finally let down her guard and realize that there are people who will truly love you and never leave you. It was great too to see Bridget and her dad finally have a real heart to heart conversation and how they were both able to let go of the past and forgive each other. However, my favorite story of all was Lena's. I feel as though I can relate to her the most and she's really come so far since the first film. She and Kostos are one of my favorite love stories and I was going to be so upset if she did not choose him at the end. It wouldn't have been the same if they didn't. It would be fun to see them come out with "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 3" and find out who they become as adults, what career they chose and who they all fell in love with and married, but it didn't seem to leave much room for that. All in all,the movie ends leaving you with the satisfaction in knowing that the pants brought them all together again and strengthened the bond of friendship, but most importantly the sisterhood.

I honestly wish that I had seen the "Dark Knight" or at least "Step Brothers"; seriously if you're going to the movies then see those films or the "Star Wars Clone Wars". But avoid this one at all costs; it will bore you to death.What's the plot? Unlike the first one, there was none worth mentioning in this one. Except for basically that Leena is bitchy about Kratos (I don't care if I spelled his name wrong; I hate the film too much to care) getting married to someone else, Carmen gets a major role in a play and her mother is pregnant, Bridgette goes to an archaelogical (sp?) trip then goes home to her grandmother then Tibby is being her usual bitchy self but this time she is worried about being pregnant with Brian's baby; and guess what? As predictable as it is, it turns out she isn't. But she ends up leaving Brian in anyway because "she doesn't want to talk to him" or some bullshit like that. But she ends up with him in the end; as I predicted.The characters are bland and annoying. Now in the first one, I liked Tibby. But in this movie she got really annoying; along with everyone else. The books just bored me to the core; but the movie was worse.I'm happy that I didn't spend my money on this trash; but I feel sorry for my mom because she did thinking that I would like because my stupid little sister does.Right now I really wish that I had a say in what movie to see; I would've automatically went for 'Step Brothers' because it's a comedy and I prefer comedies over chick flicks any day.At all costs, avoid this film!

Before I start this review, I must tell you that I was a devoted fan of the books in high school and adored the first film. Also, I have three best friends with whom I have formed a similar sisterhood, and I am in my lower twenties, just like the girls in the movie. So, I confess that I was already a fan of the movie before I saw it.This film (and the last) is perfectly cast. From the four leads, to Greta, to Julia, to Leo, the actors that play these roles are just as I had pictured them in the novels.I love how this movie didn't shy away from the fact that Tibby, Lena, Bridget, and Carmen have grown up. Their problems are more adult and there isn't always a clear solution.My only complaint is with Bridget's story. I wish they had included Eric and her affair from the fourth book.In the beginning of the movie, the young women have grown apart, but by the end you will be confident that the sisterhood will last forever.
