Gilmore Girls Audience Reviews

TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
AdelieCox My mom and I grew up watching Gilmore Girls together. And, while I loved it then, I don't think I knew just how much I would love it again in my 20's. The cast is corky, engaging, and enjoyable to watch. But I have to say - Lauren Graham as Lorelai is my absolute favorite part. She's a brilliant actress, but seems to be an even better person. I love her witty sense of humor and her natural ability to relate with common people. She inspires me creatively, especially as a writer. Love, love, love this show. Thank you to the creators for bringing this series to life!
tyrellpeterson This is an amazing show, why did you stop at 7. It's nice and relevant. And I love the pop culture references. I love the family drama. I have sincerely become attached to the characters, and I can say with complete happiness, Gilmore Girls is a religion, a lifestyle, for me!!!!!!
mrdjx Thats what I have to say about the Gilmore Girls, having just watched the series melancholic finale -'Bon Voyage' last night on Netflix. For the next half hour I couldn't help but cry. My journey with Gilmore Girls began on July 2nd 2016, the day after its global release on Netflix, and for the most part, I could not stop watching. The primary plot of the show is centered around Lorelai Gilmore (a wise cracking Lauren Graham) and her daughter Rory (an angelic Alexis Bledel). In the shows early episodes many characters mistake Lorelai for an older sister. These aren't lost on Lorelai or Rory- Lorelai was 16 when Rory was born. SPOILERS AHEAD Lorelai herself is something of a wonderkind among the ever growing list of standby-your-man TV mums. An only child to her wealthy parents, the placid Richard (a pleasant turn by the great now late Edward Hermann) and the self-absorbed Emily Gilmore (played with fantastic snark by Kelly Bishop). Lorelai has rejected their ideas as to how Rory should be brought up and has since relocated from their Hartford home. This is the primary source of conflict in the series. The Gilmores -being socialites- expected Lorelai to follow the family tradition of being an Ivy League student. Lorelai -a fierce independent- isn't cut for their world of order. Thus her pregnancy with Rory and Rory's birth provide an escape. In the shows present time, Lorelai and Rory are living in Stars Hollow- A storybook town in Connecticut populated by a wide range of lovable eccentrics who treat Rory as the towns daughter. There Lorelai has found a job working at the independence inn, starting as a maid and working her way up to executive manager. She also starts a sometimes or maybe relationship with Luke, the quiet but always dependable owner of the town diner.At the start of the show, Rory is a well-read academic now approaching the age of sixteen. This in Lorelai's eyes is truly a lifetime, one that Lorelai hopes won't be ridden with the same mistakes that she made. Lorelai manages to file a successful application for Rory at the Chilton Academy- a school that will definitely take Rory to the Ivy Leagues. The price though is steep and Lorelai reluctantly returns to her estranged parents for financial support. An agreement is reached, Richard and Emily will fund Rory's education on the basis that all four will share a family dinner on Friday night.END OF SPOILERSThere is a lot to like about the Gilmore Girls- especially the dialogue (written in Seasons 1-6 by Amy Sherman-Palladino) between the two lead characters. The two lead characters -both cult fim junkies- can reference obscure films with the best of them. In Season 2, Lorelai warns Rory that someone might whack them with a cannoli. "Whack you with a cannoli?" asks Rory, then immediately realising she has been had, "Oh, because he left the gun and took the cannoli". Exchanges like this supply the shows humor.Even with the humor coming left right and centre. The show still carries an undercurrent of sadness and pain. On a trip to Harvard, Lorelai sees a picture of a graduate, and quietly regrets not taking that path. There is a moment in Season one where Rory takes Emily to the garden shed where Lorelai had raised her- only for Emily to find herself questioning how her daughter forfeited a life of comfort and opportunity for one of poverty and hardship. I'm writing this now the world eagerly anticipates the release of the followup series Gilmore Girls:A Year in the Life in approximately two days. Lets hope that the new series is every bit as good as the original.
los026-541-125678 This is written as if everyone on the writing staff gets punched in the breast for every 30 seconds without dialog. Really that pretty much sums it up, but I have to have ten lines; so here we go. They do pretty much the same thing most shows that are designed to suck women in do so it's very predictable. Also, this review will probably have the minimum number of stars available due to fangirl outrage, but, if you've ever had a girlfriend trick you into watching The Notebook just know this is on par with that. My wife, oldest daughter, and I used to sit down and watch a show together in the evenings and they started this one without me. They got sucked in and now I have to wait for them to go through all the seasons on Netflix before we get to pick something new to watch that we can watch together; because I just can't watch this.
