Brittany Murphy (Dont Say A Word) and Dakota Fanning (I Am Sam) shine brighter than all the lights of Manhattan in this delightful New York fairy tale. Co-starring Marley Shelton (Never Been Kissed), Donald Faison (Scrubs) and Heather Locklear (Spin City), Uptown Girls will make you laugh, cry and laugh again! Molly (Murphy) is a partying rock n roll princess whose money just ran out. Ray (Fanning) is a fussy nine-year-old whose last nanny ran out. Only Rays way-too-busy mom (Locklear) could think that hiring Molly would be the perfect set-up for both girls. But as this unlikely pair faces everything from control issues (Rays, of course) to temper tantrums (Mollys, of course), they discover that sometimes your best friend can come from the place you least expect!

Very entertaining
I really enjoyed 'Uptown Girls'. Young Dakota Fanning was one of the best ever child actors, hugely talented, and her performance here is a delight. Brittany Murphy was really good too and I was very sad to learn that she died of pneumonia just a few years after starring in this film. I look forward to watching it all over again before too long.

Funny, witty great movie
I'd seen this film years ago and loved it! When I saw that it was available on prime video for purchase at a very good price I decided to add it to my digital collection its a very funny, witty film, Brittany Murphy is great as a young woman learning how to live in the real world after her inheritance is stolen, she ends up nannying a neurotic young girl who knows more about the real world than she does! But Brittany's character teaches the young girl how to be a kid x lots of great actors, humour definitely a "chick flick" a must see for any Brittany fan

"Uptown Girls" is a wonderful film; sweet, warm and Funny - with setiouse topics.Brithanny Murphy and Dakota Fanning both shines in this film, and their on screen chemestry is just magical."Uptown girls" is a moving film on many emotions.I think everyone who watch it melts, because it is so heartfelt and sweet. It make you belive in the best in people.I have watched this movie many times, but it never gets old.It is so sad that B. Murphy is no longer with us.She was a wonderful actress and human being that shines whenever She is on the Big screen.I reccomend "Uptown girls" to every B.Murphy and D.Fanning fan.I also reccomend it to those who like Romantic comedys with a strong main Story that is not Romantic, but rather dramatic and sad.But of course: "Uptown girls" has a happy ending.

Cute but predictable?
Well first of, I bought this because a few people I socialize with said they've seen it before and said it was such a good movie. So I bought this because 1. It was cheap and 2. because friends said it was worth watching. I'm not going to disagree. It's a good story line and the characters, who are played by Britney Murphay and Dikota Fanning, are so quirky! The story line though? Well I found it predictable. I knew what was going to happen at every chapter but other than that, I loved it! Such a girly, cute, funny film.:)
