"A Good Summer's Movie", This movie is beachy and fun. Read the Book By Luanne Rice which is wonderfully beachlicious!!

I have always enjoyed watching Julia Ormond (maybe because my grandmother's parents were Ormonds, born in Sterling Castle), so when looking for films she was in I came across Beach Girls. The other reviews all made it sound so wonderful, so I purchased it. Much to my disappointment, the movie is more about the teenagers than Rob Lowe's and Julia Ormond's characters--indeed, I would consider their story line to be secondary to that of Chelsea Hobbs' character. But I will admit that when they are on screen I enjoyed their performances and story, and the photography is very good.

Update--1 July 2008: If this review was not helpful to you, I would appreciate learning the reason(s) so I can improve my reviews. My goal is to provide help to potential buyers, not get into any arguments. So, if you only disagree with my opinion, could you please say so in the comments and not indicate that the review was not helpful. Thanks.

This has become an end of summer ritual for us. We would watch all or parts whenever it aired and finally bought the DVD so we can now watch whenever we want.

The actual DVDs are of excellent quality and the miniseries is a wonderful piece of film. I could watch it over and over again. Thank you Amazon. Oh, and the price was great, too.

I missed the mini series when it was on Lifetime so I just recently got it on DVD and watched it. It was AWESOME!! I loved the characters and their stories. The ending was just wonderful.
