Viewing Notes

via Netflix

Two rebellious girls find themselves on a wild adventure filled with cute boys, prudish nuns, mean rich kids and parents that just don’t understand.  The main reason I flagged this one to watch was Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt.  This is pretty much the typical 80s film and a feel good one at that.  You won’t find anything deep, but if you’re looking for fun and over the top this will fit the bill.
