Why I don't care How the Garcia Girls spent their Summer, 5 May 2005
Author: julles_23

I also agree with Tmvaz-1 and Wildcat. This film is terrible. I know it has been to Sundance, but why i do not know. I give credit and my three votes for the three lead actresses. They are phenomenal and the filmmakers should thank their graces that they have good performances cause without that, this film doesn't have anything. It is over 2 hours...feels like 4 and has some graphic scenes that are NOT necessary. The shots are very long and boring. My guess is they didn't get good coverage. As Wildcat and Tmvaz were saying, the shots weren't that great so i'm guessing it was poorly planned. Also, for some reason the people in the scene were always on like the far left of the screen...why? This film builds up to like 4 funny moments in the film and each moment has like a 30 minute build up. The grandmother is a fantastic actress and completely makes this movie bearable along with her two co-stars, but the story is incredibly boring and the movie is really just about sex. It really is a poorly told story. Maybe if it was like 45 minutes shorter, it would seem like a better movie.
