It has taken me years to watch this because I didn’t think I would like it. I wish I would have seen it sooner. I loved it.

It couldn’t keep my interest. It was just too vapid and shallow.

I can’t watch this movie enough. Love everything about it.

I used to watch this all the time with my grandma, I think this was one of her favorites! It’s such a great movie, I think this is one of those films that need to be passed down in families!

Can’t beat the book. GO READ ALL 700 AND SOMETHING PAGES!!! ITS WORTH IT!!!

This movie is very sweet. I love the sisters. Jo (Winona Ryder) is a great character and Laurie (Christian Bale) is very romantic and gentle. Very good movie for the holidays!

This is a beautiful movie that portrays the independence of woman.

Great movie ! I just don't want to buy it . Waiting until it will be rentable

For the life of me, I can't understand how the critics love this movie so much. No, let me rephrase that - I know why they like it, or pretend to: because it oozes political correctness. But in my humble opinion, this is NO five-star fare. It's flat. It's modernistic. It's not true to the book - it's all fuzzy and soft and watered-down, viewing like a Hallmark movie, with only slightly better acting. But above all, the casting is really the worst. Susan Sarandon as a supposedly "new-and-improved" feministic Marmee was basically just playing herself, lacking all the warmth and wisdom of the Marmee in the book. Gabriel Byrne as Professor Bhaer - wait, did I say he played Prof. Bhaer? Grizzled, un-handsome, quirky Prof. Bhaer of the book? Nope. Not even close. The worst was Winona Ryder. They should have cast someone, ANYONE besides her as Jo . In fact, she and Claire Danes should have swapped roles. Claire Danes with her boyish rasp and plain looks, would have been much better suited to playing our favorite tomboy than petite, beautiful Ryder. Does no one else see this?? This has bothered me for ages - really, it's one of the worst casting jobs in movie history, and what makes it worse is everyone seeming to think Ryder is "perfect" as Jo. I just don't get it. Everyone who says that has either never read the book, or they're blindly devoted fans of Ryder. I would love to see this story remade one more time, and correctly for once. I'd like to see a version where Jo's character is not overacted, Prof. Bhaer is actually age-appropriate (to the book), and Amy is not a despicable twit (which, thankfully, isn't how she's portrayed in this movie, but how everyone seems to view her nonetheless - totally off the mark!).

I love this movie!!!! But Laurie gets to be kind of a jerk by the end...
