I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

In the Summer of 1972, 11-Year Old Vada (played by Anna Chlumsky) lives in a funeral parlour with her father (played by Dan Aykroyd) who works as an undertaker in a small town of Pennsylvania.
Her mother died when she gave birth to her.
Then Shelly De Voto (played by Jamie Lee Curtis) comes along and soon she and Vada's father are having a relationship.But the only person in Vada's life is her best friend Thomas J. (played by Macaulay Culkin), and they have many summer adventures together.

This was a cute bud sad film that I had rented may years ago, mainly cause it had Macaulay Culkin (from Home Alone) and Anna Chlumsky (whom I had never heard of at the time). This was a movie that I had liked for some reason, (but I HATE the awful music!) This is a story about friendship and many other things. I enjoyed it and I think you will too.I give 'My Girl' a 7/10.

This is undoubtedly one of the movies that gives you advices.if you looking for advices for being scared of death or sex(which Shelly explains to vada about sex),this movie is right for you.this movie stars a litte girl name vada.living with her father after her moms death.she lives in a funeral home with yes her dad.but she goes to the doctor a few times faking her symptoms.(chock on a chicken bone wasn't fake...was it?)why does she fake her symptoms? Thats for you to find out.and i notice throughout the movie,she uses the bathroom several times throughout the movie.but did she really use it or she faking it?thats for you to find out also.ask yourself this,would you watch this?if your under 5,don't watch it as it has some inappropriate stuff in it.if your over 5 and under 10,watch it with your parents.if your over 10 and under 15,this is the average age for viewers.if your over 15 and under 30,this movie is not recommended for viewers these age as this movie is childish.if your over 30 and under 50,i will recommend this with you and your kids and probably husband or wife or boyfriend or girlfriend.if you watch it alone and your a man or woman and love kids,then i recommend this.but i must warn you:vada can be quite annoying and stubborn.probably make you not watch it anymore.if you don't care,watch it at your own risk.now for the scores for each part of the movie:Graphics:(n/a)no graphics.just live action.but the movie is kinda bury though.Music:(10/10)there some songs(including my girl).and vada and Thomas sings while on the bikes.so there's nothing special or bad about it.Storyline:(9/10)its about vada and her dad lives in a funeral home doing work on dead people.and vada is scared of death because of her mother passing and scared that she might die due to chicken bone in her throat.her life is terrible but cured by a young boy name Thomas j.but it gotten worst when a woman name Shelly enter their lives by working with her dad name harry.this cause vada to run away.and thinking her father doesn't care about her.so she ran to her future love...but he was married.her heart broken.so she has no choice but to run to the river by herself.then she returns home and her dad apologizes for him telling her stuff that he didn't wanna tell her.there's one problem.she complains a lot and there's special too.her dad giving advices.Plotholes:(-0)i don't think there's any so no.Innapropiate scenes or lines:(10/10)there's no inappropriate scenes.there's no inappropriate lines.Embarrassing moments(10/10):noneFunny moments(0/10):noneFrightening scenes(10/10):noneNudity(10/10):nonecharacter deaths(9/10):vada's mother(before start of film) and Thomas jThats the end of review.

This probably is one of those movies that everybody talks about for things like the last 20 minutes. I saw a clip of this movie on YouTube and I wanted to see it. I finally found a version that I can watch and to be honest there are a few little problems with it but not many.This is a coming of age film about a girl named Vada, she is surrounded by death because her mother died in childbirth (and she blames herself) and her father is an undertaker who doesn't seem to have time for her nor listens to her (Dan Akroyd). She consistently tries to tell people she's dying, when really all she wants is attention. When a make-up artist (Jamie Lee Curtis) applies for a job soon her father starts dating her. All she does is hang around her best friend, Thomas (MaCauley Culkin) and look after her grandmother with mental health problems. This is the events that happen over a summer break.The acting in this movie... My god, from Anna Chlumsky, it's brilliant. Easily one of the best child performances ever alongside Emily Perkins in Small Sacrifices. I really wonder why out of the kids in this movie the one I've heard of is MaCauley Culkin because Anna is definitely the better actor. The other actors are also pretty good. I mean There was nobody that didn't do a decent job in this movie.One thing I really liked was the drama. Now I think you may have heard people talk about it but my insight is that it went really well and possibly the best drama I've seen in a kids film. It all works really well.If there was anything to raise against this movie it would be when Vada runs to the teacher she has a crush on during one of the more dramatic moments and confesses her love for him only to find out he is getting married because he almost literally announces it a few seconds later... This is at a time when an 11 year old girl is grieving over somebody's death - is that really the best time to tell her that? I think not.So aside from that complaints everything else is a nitpick. This movie really does capture childhood and it really is a timeless movie. This is definitely one of the best coming of age and family films out there, maybe because I haven't seen many. I will most certainly watch My Girl 2 even though I've heard it's not that good. If you can find it, check it out.
