I've watched this movie so many times and I still enjoy it. The characters are well-developed and the relationships among them feel so real. It reminded me of times when I'd fight with my sister, spending summers with my cousin out-of-state, drama with my parents, and even though the loss of my step mom couldn't have been as painful as Carolyn's passing for the kids, I still feel that pain and always hope she'll recover in the end even though I know she won't. Plus RuPaul's cameo is amazing. The only thing I can't stand about this film is the way Troy's visit to her aunt and uncle's house was filmed. I understand why it was filmed that way, but it also makes it very obnoxious to watch. Still, all in all it's an enjoyable movie. I showed it to my daughter and she likes it too.
