A doomed Macaulay Culkin becomes the object of affection for a little girl (Anna Chlumsky), estranged from her widowed father (Dan Aykroyd). This somewhat daring premise has various emotional buffers to keep young viewers from going into shock from Culkin's demise, but the film is also not shut off from real feelings. And while the story remains safely predictable, at the end of the day it is still a bittersweet experience. Culkin's performance is okay in that somewhat mannered way of his post-Home Alone career, but Anna Chlumsky is unusually sophisticated in her understanding of her character and situation. Aykroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis are perfectly stable as the kids' single parents. Directed by Howard Zieff (Private Benjamin). The DVD release has a full-screen presentation, Dolby sound, theatrical trailer, and optional French and Spanish soundtracks. --Tom Keogh

 My Girl January 18, 2010
Arnita D. Brown (USA)
Vada Sultenfuss is obsessed with death. Her mother is dead, and her father runs a funeral parlor. She is also in love with her English teacher, and joins a poetry class over the summer just to impress him. Thomas J., her best friend, is "allergic to everything", and sticks with Vada despite her hangups. When Vada's father hires Shelly, a makeup expert, in his funeral parlor, and begins to fall in love with her, Vada is outraged and does everything in her power to split them up. 'My Girl' is a rare treat. It is a very bittersweet look at the joys and tears a girl faces when she stands on the cusp between childhood and adolescence.
Memories of my childhood September 30, 2009
Clarissa Albuquerqu (Brazil)
This movie is unforgettable. I watched it a million times during my childhood. I loved Vada so much that I used to run a fansite about Anna Chlumsky and I even had a mood ring just like hers. OMG!!! It's been and will always be THE MOVIE! LOLOLOLOL I can't believe I found this DVD on Amazon, because it is no longer available in Brazil.

A nice little film that deals seriously with childhood loss. Too bad Sony chose to release this in an abridged pan and scan. But hey, if you don't care about all that Sony cut out of the film, buy it.
 great customer service April 15, 2009
Michelle Leigh Gonzales (Des Plaines Illinois)
I had ordered a movie for my daughter and we recieved the movie case only no movie. I called customer service let them know my issue and I recieved a new movie in 2 days at no charge. I have ordered from here before and this was my only problem. My daughter loves this movie and I thank amazon for the quick replacement.
Coming-of-age story for girls September 27, 2008
Backroads (Northern Utah)
I remember bawling myself silly over this movie as a child. When I was given it as a gift and watched it, guess what? More bawling. And yet I was still truly touched by the magic and heart of this moving little story as well as its quirkiness and observations of human lives. This is the tale of a young girl who of all things has grown up in the home of a funeral director... which means lots of dead bodies in the basement. Thus is the setting of a quirky and moving little story with plenty of wonderful acting and great humor. It must be watched with tissues, if you are anything like me, but it is worth it.
