The Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants (2005) 7/10

Starring : Amber Tamblyn, America Ferrera, Blake Lively, Alexis Bledel
Director : Ken Kwapis
Running Time : 114 mins

Four lifelong friends, Carmen (Ferrera), Bridget (Lively), Lena (Bledel) and Tibby (Tamblyn), find a pair of jeans that amazingly fit them all. As they find themselves separated for the first time over summer break, they decide to share the jeans amongst themselves, as well as the stories of what has happened to them on their respective time away.

Even though the concept of this teen film is a little ropey, with the girls mailing a pair of jeans to each other all over the world, the stories within the main body of the film will no doubt appeal to young girls the world over who will enjoy the little dramas that effect each of the girls in turn. There are some funny moments, but largely this is a dramatic piece that seems to give all of the girls involved a memorable summer that I’m sure most of them would rather forget parts of.
