    Beautiful Girls is always in touch with reality but never drowned in it. [19 February 1996, p.64]

    The movie was directed by Ted Demme, with a light touch that allows the humor to survive in spite of the gloomy thoughts and the bleak, dark, frozen winter landscape.

    Portman, Plimpton and O'Donnell make the film. The only one of Portman's films I've seen that measures up to The Professional.

    This is a good movie about real people. It's not action packed, it's not incredibly insightful... it's a character study of average people who may relate to people you know. Full Review »
