Reviews

SnoopyStyle Vada Sultenfuss (Anna Chlumsky) is now 13. Her father Harry (Dan Aykroyd) and Shelly (Jamie Lee Curtis) are expecting a new baby. She's given a school assignment to write about someone who achieved something and who she's never met. She decides to write about her mother Maggie (Angeline Ball). For spring vacation, she goes to her mother's home town L.A. to stay with uncle Phil. She is assisted by the son of Phil's girlfriend, Nick Zsigmond.The lost of Macaulay Culkin in the first movie is tough enough. This one sends Vada to L.A. and abandons the rest of the cast. I'm willing to have Vada in her teenage years but I don't understand why she can't stay in her small town. She is essentially disconnected with the first movie. There is almost no point in doing a sequel in this way. The middle of this movie is terribly flat and meandering. The Maggie reveal is very touching but the rest of this is forgettable.

Wuchak The original "My Girl" from 1991 was a quality drama about a 10 year-old girl experiencing tragic death. In "My Girl 2" she's now 13 and goes to Southern California to learn about her mother she never knew. Her companion is played by Austin O'Brien. Dan Aykroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis play her father and stepmother while Richard Masur and Christine Ebersole co-star as her uncle and potential aunt. The beautiful Angeline Ball has a small role as her mother in flashbacks.This is just a solid drama, as good or better than the original. The adventures of the two 13 year-olds as they go from person to person searching for information about Vada's mother compels the story along. The people they meet are colorful or interesting. The peripheral subplots are good too, like will the Uncle propose to Rose or allow some rich dude with a Jaguar to snatch her up? The film runs 99 minutes and was shot in Los Angeles, California, including Topanga Canyon.GRADE: B

WakenPayne Okay I have seen the sequel to my Girl quite easily one of my favourite coming of age films. I had 2 expectations with this one, either "cash cow" or "they're trying". My opinion is the latter.The plot is that for a school assignment Vada has to write about someone she's never met and must write their crowning achievement. She decides to write about her mother who died giving birth to her and through circumstances she stays with her uncle Phil in Los Angeles over her summer vacation to find all of this out.The acting from Anna Chlumsky as usual is very much worth it as is from most of the main players in this movie. if there was any complaint with it I think it might be this Nick character who they put in a little bit of a contrived love relationship with Vada.I guess people might want to know is it better than the first one? No. But then again it is worth it if you've seen the first one. The characters are pretty much the same as in the first one and they still feel like real people like in the first one. It doesn't throw me on the same emotional level as the first one but it is somewhat still there. If you liked the first one, check it out.

ppamjo2 I think that this was a good movie... Vada chooses to write a report about someone that they never met. She decides to do a report on her Mom. Her mom was an aspiring actress.. Vada ventures out to California to find out all about her Mother..She stayed with her uncle and his girlfriend who have a young son named Nick... Personally I thought Nick was kind of a jerk.I think that this is such a great story. Vada can now grow up knowing that her mom was special to a lot of people. The scene with Jeffery Pomeroy was so good... He told Vada that he was glad that her Mom found someone that would love her and that he was glad when she was born...Sure the story may not sit well with some people, but I thought that it was great. I know if I never met my Mom, I sure would like to know all about her...I would give this film a chance...
