5/10
Okay, but not a holiday classic
23 November 2004
I just finished watching this movie and was kinda disappointed. But what more could I expect? I'm not 10 anymore! The story line was good considering they were trying to tell a story in less than 2 hours time. I don't think it captured the beauty of the books nor the spunky nature of Samantha at all. The acting was horrible, almost soap opera-ish. The actress playing Samantha had a weird smile that almost made her look evil. And the girl playing Nellie was sooooo bad... I felt embarrassed for her. She couldn't act a lick! I don't see this movie becoming a classic of any sort. I only watched it because I loved the American Girl Series when I was a kid.
