  • She was so good in

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By Tom Urie from Scotland , 31 Jul 2004

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Wonderful. This is one of the funniest, most touching films I've ever seen. Based on Carrie Fisher's semi-autobiographcal novel, Shirley MacLaine and Meryl Streep turn in fantastic performances as mother and daughter at war. Examining the relationship between fading Hollywood legend MacLean and drug addicted Streep, there are many tragic/comedy moments that have you creased up with laughter one minute and choking back the tears the next.

  • Streep is great

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    I liked this movie, I am a big Streep fan and as always she was brilliant. An intersesting insight into a mother daughter relationship.

    This is rather a dark and moral tale from the sunny climes of Hollywood.

  • Carrie Fisher's Novel?

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By MarTheFirst from London , 23 Sep 2006
    Dir. Mike Nichol's grand tour through Hollywood Babylon still emerges as a savage showbiz satire. Meryl Streep is the selfish actress in celebrity detox who moves back home with her overbearing mother (MacLane) in this thinly-veiled account of Fisher's own poignant relationship with her real-life mother Debbie Reynolds.

    Both stars rise to the "bit itchy" one-liner occasion and turn on the glitz, glamour & grit. Excellent performance.
