wisegirls is the simplest movie i have ever seen. the setting, and even the characters. but that's only when i do not engage into a deep analysis of the movie. for as i tried to indulge myself into it, i realized that it is more than what it seemed to me at first. For you see, i realized that its simplicity is actually what made it such a exciting movie for me. I said it's exciting because the turn of events towards the end is so "seemingly-towards-a-sad-ending" that i got really overwhelmed when i saw Meg joined Raychel and the other for their birthday-re-birthday-pack. You know, that moment, i felt like i was Raychel. aside from that, i really loved Mariah Carey's acting in this movie. for a figure like her whose talent is on singing (she's got the most powerful voice of all!), i would say that she portrayed her role in a rather "natural way" as what is expected of Raychel. i loved mariah the most! Mira did her acting as if she personally underwent such fate. Melora really amazed me by her acting specially when she revealed herself to meg. to the cast and crew of wisegirls, two thumbs up!

Because it was OVER..........Good lord - the direction has TV movie written all over it and the general absurdity of the whole thing just underlines how dismal this poor effort is.As for the final scene - stunned groaning all round.Not even bad enough to be worth watching for the cheese factor.Mira Sorvino should be doing better work than this :-(( She was very cool in Replacement Killers, so we looked for other movies starring her. Sadly this was one of them.On the other hand - we all applauded at the end too.

To be completely honest, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this movie. In fact everything is perfect. I have no idea why 'Wisegirls' has such low imdb rating. The story is about a girl played by Mira Sorvino who starts working as a waitress in a restaurant run by Mafia. It starts as a drama but ends up in suspense.Mira Sorvino played the role perfectly. Maria Carey and Melora Walters were great too. And the rest of the cast did their job flawlessly.'Wisegirls' is a feel good movie that everyone should see. You won't regret it, guaranteed.10/10

This movie totally kept me in suspense the entire time! I didn't even realize I cried at the end of the movie when they met for their birthdays - TEAR! When this movie was being made, of course there were rumors of "cat-fights" between Mariah Carey and Mira. I didn't see any animosity between them - like "behind" the scenes - which as really good. The other fact that Mariah didn't try to steal the movie or be a "diva" during the movie - I don't want to mention Glitter but this movie was MUCH better than that movie!!! What really got me into tears was the meat factory - I cried for her, I felt her pain and anguish. Mira facial expressions made you feel all the pain her character went through and you could feel that she had met good friends and you believed they would be friends forever..This movie was excellent!
