- Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2015First, the bad points of this movie (actually more of a nit-picky-ness on my part since this movie has so many more good qualities).
1. Bailey is supposedly dying of "leukemia" (most likely acute lymphoblastic leukemia, ALL the most common kids' leukemia), has failed chemo and has not too long to live. Kiddos with leukemia do not just go from walking around looking totally healthy to within days arriving on death's doorsteps. The dying process for kids with leukemia is long and painful wherein the kiddo slowly wastes away like a flame dying out in a candle.
2. Where are the parents? Bailey's parents. When Tibby visits Bailey in the hospital, presumably Bailey is terminally ill and dying. No parents around, no child life peeps no nurses no grandparents. In a peds hospital, kiddos terminally ill are never ever left alone. Parents, no matter how much they may hate each other drop everything to be with their sick kids 24/7 along with grandparents, aunts and uncles, goldfish, mountains of teddy bears and video games.
Okay, so much for my nit picky-ness. Now for the good points.
1. This book and resulting screenplay are superb examples of how to blend the multiple points of view (POV's) of Tibby, Lena, Carmen and Bridget into a great story line. The coming of age story of Bridget, the divorced parents, kid hating the absent parent situation of Carmen, the finding out what is really important in life and learning about death situation of Tibby and the Romeo and Juliet situation of Lena all flow seemlessly together.
2. Great music especially "Be Be Your Love" and "Unwritten".
3. This book and screenplay are excellent examples of using the Travelling Pants as a "MacGuffin", a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or other motivator that the protagonist pursues, to drive the story forward. Hitchcock would have been proud.
4. You won't find a better "tear jerker" ending in movies than in the final Tibby and Bailey hospital scenes.
5. Hats off to Ann Brashares the book's author and Delia Ephron and Elizabeth Chandler the screenwriters.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2016i watched this movie last night it was verry good. I am a teenager so i think think this is a great teen movie but anyone would like cuz my mom liked it. Its about 4 best friends tibby (amber tambyn), bridget (blake lively), lena (alexis bledle) and carmen (america ferrera). They go to the store and find a pair of jeans that fit all 4 of them and they have all diferent builds. So they decide this summer as the girls go diferent places. So 1st lena wears them to greace and almost drowns and a guy saves her who she later falls in love with. Then she mails them to carmen who is going to south carolina to visit her father but when she gets there he has found a new girlfriend who has 2 kids of her own. Then she mails the pants to tibby who got a job at walmans she finds a girl passed on the floor, she's the one who delivers the pants to tibby, the girl is bailey (jenna boyd). Tibby thinks Bailey is a pest to her at 1st budding into her store interveiws and following her around but they become friends. Last bridget gets the pants by this time bridget fell in love with the coach at soccer camp but after she gets the pants she gets sad about the death of her mom.then the pants take another round even bailey uses them thoe there too big for her, bailey was in the hospial cuz she had lukemia. Did the pants bring good luck or bad luck? In the end carmen and her dad got on good terms and lena found love in greace. Great movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sehenswert!
Ich habe die ersten beiden "Eine für vier"-Bücher auf dem Flohmarkt gekauft und bin, auf der Suche nach einem dritten Teil, über die DVD gestolpert. Ich muss sagen - der Film ist großartig gemacht.
Man macht sich ja immer eigene Vorstellungen beim Lesen eines Buches und ist dem dazugehörigen Film meist etwas skeptisch gegenüber eingestellt.
Meine Rezension richtet sich an die Buchleser, die sich überlegen, ob der Film sehenswert ist.
Meine anfängliche Skepsis war unbegründet, denn der Film war großartig! Es werden deutlich mehr Emotionen vermittelt, als in den Büchern, es werden keine wichtigen Dinge einfach ausgelassen und die Charaktere sind toll besetzt. Jede der vier ist so, wie ich sie mir vorgestellt habe.
Einziges Manko: Lena muss im Film für diese Liebe kämpfen. Es heißt, es wären Streitigkeiten zwischen den Familien, die eine Beziehung zwischen den beiden ausschließen würden.
Im Buch ist es genau das Gegenteil; jeder befürwortet die Beziehung und Kostos wird von Valia und Bapi (Lenas Großeltern) als Enkel angesehen.
Somit verläuft Lenas Sommer weitestgehend anders, als im Buch. Wärend sie im Buch Kostos gegenüber sehr negativ eingestellt ist, ist es im Film genau anderst herum; schon ein wenig merkwürdig.
Aber alles in allem passt auch das zum Film, denn als Einzelwerk gesehen, ist er ganz große Klasse.
Fazit: Auch wenn nicht alles 100%ig so ist, wie im Buch, ist der Film sein Geld definitiv wert. Und so günstig, wie es diesen inzwischen gibt, heißt es: Zuschlagen und zuhause mit der Schwester/Freundin/Tochter/Mutter und einer Schüssel Popcorn vorm Fernseher bequem machen!

5.0 out of 5 stars Überraschend guter Teenie-Film, der für die ganze Familie geeignet ist
4 Freundinnen verschlägt es einen Sommer lang in verschiedene Winkel der Welt: Lena zu ihren Großeltern nach Griechenland, die sich trotz jahrelangen Familienstreits in den SOhn einer anderen Familie des Dorfes verliebt. Bridget, die nach dem Selbstmord ihrer Mutter, in einem Fußballcamp Ausgleich und neuen Boden im Leben sucht und sich in einen Coach verliebt - es bleibt nur eine Sommerliebe. Carmen, die ihren Vater besucht und dabie feststellt, dass er demnächst wieder heiraten wird und sich eine Stieffamilie zugelegt hat, kommt mit ihren Gefühlen nicht klar - mit Aussöhnung mit dem Vater am Ende. Und dann ist da noch Tibby, die einzige, die den Sommer daheim verbringt und dabei ein zwölfjähriges Mädchen kennenlernt, das an Leukämie erkrankt ist und deren Wunsch nach Fertigstellung eines Filmes noch erfüllt.
Eine Jeans, die "zufällig" allen passt, ist das Bindeglied und wandert zwischen den Mädchen umher und soll allen Glück bringen.
Ein wunderbarer Film, der anders wie in anderen Filmen den Zuschauern nicht eine heile Teenie-Welt vorgaukelt, sondern alle möglichen Lebenswirklichkeiten sehr gefühlsecht und lebensnah zeigt.
Echt sehenswert!

4.0 out of 5 stars Eine für mich ;-)
Zu allererst muss ich gestehen: ich gehöre absolut nicht zur Zielgruppe dieses Films. Männlich und in einem Alter, in dem ich selbst schon Töchter wie diese vier Mädels haben könnte, hielt ich die DVD dennoch schon am Erstverkaufstag in meinen Händen ... um sie dann wieder ins Regal zurück zu stellen. Vier Jahre lang griff ich immer wieder zu diesem Film, aber irgendwie kam mir die Sache mit der Jeans etwas zu abstrakt vor. Auch die Tatsache, dass eine später erschienene Fortsetzung ja für den Erfolg und die Beliebtheit des erste Teils spricht, hat mich nicht so richtig überzeugt. Bis, ja bis der Film dann im Fernsehen lief ...
Wer hinter dem Episodenfilm und der abstrusen Story um eine "Glücksjeans" einen langweiligen Teenie-Film nach Schema F erwartet wird eines Besseren belehrt. Durch die "Reise" der Jeans mit begleitenden Briefen der Mädchen werden die vier Handlungsstränge, von denen jede eine gefühlvolle und emotional bewegende Geschichte erzählt, harmonisch zusammengeführt. Nicht zuletzt sorgen auch die herrlichen Landschaften, absolut sehenswerte Kulissen, sowie die reizenden Mädchen dafür, dass man den Film mit einem zufriedenen Gefühl in Erinnerung behält.
Dass "Die Schwesternschaft der reisenden Jeans" (so der Originaltitel) im Gegensatz zur Masse der Teenie-Filme nicht schon nach 80 Minuten vorbei ist, sondern mit einer Laufzeit von knapp 2 Stunden aufwartet, tat dem anrührenden Film ungemein gut. Ohne Langeweile aufkommen zu lassen wird der Geschichte eines jeden Mädchens ausreichend Zeit gewidmet. Besonders berührt hat mich der Handlungsstrang um die zu Hause gebliebene Tibby, die durch die versehentlich falsch ausgelieferte Jeans die 12jährige Bailey kennenlernt. Für diejenigen, die den Film noch nicht kennen, möchte ich nicht zu viel verraten. Nur so viel: aber am Ende hat man(n) wirklich Tränen in den Augen!
Natürlich bietet diese gelungene Mischung aus Komödie und Drama auch reichlich Platz für Humor und Romantik. "Eine für 4" is kein gewöhnlicher Teenie-Film wie man ihn schon dutzende male gesehen hat, sondern ein zu Herzen gehendes, liebevoll gemachtes Stück Kino, das mit seinen bezaubernden Darstellerinnen und einem beschwingtem Soundtrack perfekt zu unterhalten weiß.
Fazit:
Klare Kaufempfehlung an alle hoffnungslosen Romantiker >>> wie mich :-)
Auch wenn ihr nicht mehr so ganz in die Zielgruppe "Teenie" passt >>> wie ich ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Großartiger Film!!
Ich bin ein riesiger Gilmore-Girls-Fan. Also begann ich irgendwann zu schauen, was Alexis und Lauren noch so für andere Projekte gemacht haben.
Bei dieser Beschreibung wusste ich, dass der Film wie für mich gemacht war.
Ich kann mir den Film noch so oft anschauen, ich bin immer wieder begeistert von dem Zusammenhalt der 4 Mädels. Es ist einfach toll, so vertraute Menschen um sich zu haben. Und der Film ist so echt und herzlich gemacht, dass ich nur jedem empfehlen kann, der noch mal über echte Freundschaft lernen und lachen möchte, sich diesen Film anzuschauen.
Für mich hat dieser Film nichts mit meiner Gilmore-Girls-"ja-fast-schon-Besessenheit" zu tun, sondern einfach mit einem warmen Gefühl, wenn ich diesen Film anschaue.
Und jetzt wo ich so darüber schreibe, möchte ich ihn mir auch gleich wieder anschauen. Das werde ich jetzt auch tun ... hach, herrlich :-)
