June 20, 2008 |  | I AM TOTALLY A GROUPIE OF THIS MOVIE |  |
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS MOVIE. I STUMBLED UPON IT LATE ON HBO ONE NIGHT AND HAD TO HAVE IT. IF YOU ARE FEELING A LITTLE NOSTALGIC FOR THE SEATTLE SCENE THIS IS DEFINETLY THE MOVIE FOR YOU.
April 11, 2007If you have ever questioned what happens when you're a groupie then this movie might be for you. It's not perfect. The narration over the movie gets annoying from time to time but it is a coming of age story. It's based off of a book which it doesn't stay true to, but the same basic story is there. It's a good movie for anyone who is interested rock and roll and hot rock stars thne this movie is for you.
January 4, 2007 | | Good Movie if not compared to book | |
If you are a fan of the book "Girl" you will probably not enjoy this movie. The movie leaves out much of the detail in the book which presented a more together, engrossing, and character-rich story. If you can watch the movie as a separate entity from the book, it is enjoyable. The strong point of the film is the excellent cast of many indie film stars like Selma Blair. Portia De Rossi from Arrested Development also has a role in the film. The film still presents a coming of age story that doesn't take itself too seriously.

If you were a teenager in the mid-'90s (and enjoyed it), you will probably love this movie and relate to it. It really captures the feel of the grunge era well.
If, however, you're one of those people who hates grunge music because it's dark/depressing, you probably can't relate.
Since I was in high school from '94-'98, I love Girl. I happened upon it by accident (someone recommended Girl when he actually meant Party Girl), and I was so happy that I did. But I know the time period has a bad reputation. If you loathe Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Candlebox, My So-Called Life, and dyed hair, this movie probably isn't for you.
All that said, I'm making my assessment of the movie without having read the book, so if you want a book/movie comparison you'll have to look at other reviews.
