Brittany Murphy uses her ditzy/sexy combination to maximum effect in Uptown Girls. Molly Gunn (Murphy) is an heiress living off the estate of her dead rock star father--until an unscrupulous accountant embezzles everything and Molly has to get a job. After a failed attempt at retail work, Molly finds herself as the nanny for a prematurely humorless and rigid little girl named Ray (Dakota Fanning, I Am Sam), whose music mogul mother Roma (Heather Locklear) hardly ever sees her. Meanwhile, Molly woos an English musician who's trying to get a record contract from Roma. Unsurprisingly, Ray teaches Molly to take some responsibility for herself, while Molly gives Ray the opportunity to become the child she is--but despite the formulaic quality of the story, the two actresses play off each other well, and something unexpectedly touching emerges. Also featuring Marley Shelton (Sugar & Spice). --Bret Fetzer

POLOS OPUESTOS TERMINAN NECESITANDOSE January 31, 2009
C. Bellegarrigue (El Salvador)
Es la verdad...tu nunca puedes saber de donde te aparecera esa persona que se convertira en tu mejor apoyo y tu amigo(a) mas fiel; es la moraleja que esta muy divertida pero audaz comedia nos deja, con una Brittany Murphy haciendo gala tanto de su sensualidad como de su hilarante sentido del humor, con un personaje atolondrado, infantil y loco, que al final aprende a madurar y a ser mas una mujer adulta; y una Dakota Fanning muy seria, intransigente y super estricta que aprende a ser una nina y a valorar su ninez...ideal pelicula para todo el que busca identificar la amistad verdadera.

The problem with films like this is that the directors and writers don't trust the skills of their actors. They're calling Murphy the next Lucy but they force her into contrived situations that scream insincerity! Dakota is one of the most gifted and natural actors working today but here they spoon feed "precocious" lines into her that even she must have choked on for a paycheck. Watch any mature film of hers next to this one and you'll probably gag yourself.
Unless you thrive on insipid fluff and happy pap, I'd stay clear of this one for sure.

I have seen about half this movie and was very curious to see the rest of it and found it on sale. So I bought it. The rest of the movie was just as good. I highly recommend it.
