The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants

Now I know Mavis Bean disapproves of me reviewing films on here - but I have just been sobbing.

The culprit - 'The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants'.
Now this film has been on the circuit since 2000-and ever, but I have never got round to (or had a particular urge to) watching it.
I checked the reviews but after deciding I wasn't really bothered anyway I Loved Filmed it.
It looked like an easy watch and the cast are, well, some of the best young actresses (all of them very likable) that Hollywood has to offer. FACT.

Well it started off lovely enough. A light introduction to these four girls. Fine. I will sip my herbal tea and kick back.Yeah right...kick back and let the tears cascade down my face, while using my stolen British Airways blanket to blow my endless runny nose (ew)
How come no one told me this film was so endearing? and funny, inspiring and sad! so so sad.
I am going to get my hands on the sequel. Hopefully its as good.
