My Brother the Pig Reviews:
Grandma's Review
2008-09-13 - This film has been enjoyed over and over again by: a 7 year old; an 11 year old; a 62 year old; a 24 year old. We ALL laughed a lot. Lots of fun. Loved especially Eva Mendes as a witch! Scarlett Johansson sure demonstrated in this cute movie all the promise that has proven true over the last several years - and especially when directed by Woody Allen.

Hateful and annoying
2008-07-02 - I watched this movie the other day and it just made me angry. First of all, I was just appalled at the character Scarlett Johannsen plays. She's a petty, whiny, obnoxious teen named Cathy who just spouts venom at everyone in her life, and no one puts a stop to her. I guess her attitude is supposed to be considered "cute and sassy." She is a physically beautiful girl, but her character is so hateful, sulky, and melodramatic that I found myself annoyed every time she came out on the screen. Then there is Eva Mendes' as the Mexican nanny of the two priveleged white children. It's so shameful that as a proud Latina she would actually take on this degrading role. She plays the stereotypical ignorant, "Ay yay yay! Si senor, si senorita, anything you say" Mexican nanny with a fake, thick accent. There is a scene where they go to Mexico and it's just the most bucolic village straight out of the 1800's, with a fountain in the middle and more stereotypical, backwards Mexican characters. (There was even one sleeping on the floor with a sombrero!) Hollywood doesn't dare put out scripts anymore where blacks are portrayed as "mammies" and servants, because that would be considered racist. They'll write a role for a white criminal over a black one so as to not offend anybody. The day is not yet here when people of all cultures and nationalities are portrayed with dignity and respect.

Really cute movie
2008-02-11 - Although I had never heard of this movie before I bought it for my little boy, I was glad I did. He loved it and I thought it was very cute.

A Very Beautiful Leading Lady: Scarlett Johansson.
2005-06-03 - I haven't seen this but i plan on renting it. But all i have to say is that this movie (from other places i have searched)has very few critiques on it-if that is the case, i assume the movie must be very warm and funny. (i have seen the trailer though) and It has the lovely Scarlett Johansson(14 or 15 years of age in 1999) and famous ex star of the 80's actor Judge Rhinehold. These are the days in where Scarlett Johansson was not even famous at all, she was just there, this was pre-scarlett johansson, before her success in lost in translation and girl with a pearl earring. i have not seen it but i am going by the trailer and i say get it, this is a gem, you can't go wrong with a johansson film. they all have substance! Movies are really nice, you get to see the people or actors or actresses you like, admire, immortalized forever on video/film. Scarlett Johansson is one nice cup cake.

Great film for kids
2003-04-18 - For your kids or the kid in you, this film is funny, endearing and warm.
