Uptown Girls

CriticsCritics: 24
AudienceAudience: 6.5

After losing her inheritance to a dishonest manager, a carefree young woman must find work as a nanny for a serious, neglected child. As they clash and grow closer, each begins to learn important lessons about responsibility, grief, connection, and finding a more balanced way to face life.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a sweet, emotional comedy-drama about an unlikely friendship, but Not for you if you prefer original plots, brisk pacing, or less sentimental stories like Raising Helen.
