hyped garbage

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Delightful movie ..leaves you wanting to see more of the misadventures of Eloise. I am so disappointed that there are only 2 Eloise movies . That child who plays Elioise (Sofia Vassilieva) is so delightful. It's definitely a movie to share with Grandma. Julie Andrews and Sofia Vassilieva together are like peanut butter and jelly. This character should be a role model for little girls as she has the wholesome charm I want my granddaughter to have. This charming story is fast paced and has humor to keep both children and adults entertained. I want to see more more Eloise!!! The whole family will want to see more of the adventures of Eloise

Once again Hollywood and the new "Disney" have ruined another classic. The beauty of Eloise was her innocence and ability to creatively entertain herself living sans parents at The Plaza under the sometimes watchful eye of her Nanny and the hotel's staff.Apparently the more obnoxious the better, after all she is now a role model for millions of spoiled little brats living dysfunctional lives with their disinterested parents.The original version of the book that became the basis for this horrible movie was intentionally withheld by Kay Thompson back in the early '60s because she felt that "Eloise" was also for a adults. This movie "Eloise" is more akin to the Hilton sisters type of behavior.Mr. Salomone in real life was a class act and a handsome gentleman, not the bald headed neurotic ass portrayed in this take.Maybe at some point, the real "Eloise" be portrayed in another version, one that will have the charm that these characters deserve.

I have enjoyed many movies featuring USA children actors. Jackie Coogan and Shirley Temple were wonderful. I consider the Hal Roach (Our Gang ) to be classics and I have re-run many of of them with increased delight. I even laugh at many of the antics of Denis the menace. Hovever I started to shudder after the first few minutes of watching Eloise.. This is the most obnoxious brat of a child that I have seen in a movie. Surely, it is the patriotic duty for Hollywood to present a true picture of American family life and not this fiction drivel. I is not many years ago, when the major Hollywood studios had high standards and a film like Eloise in the Plaza would not have seen the light of day.

Being bored was not allowed in this movie! Julie Andrews was brilliant as always! The lovable newcomer Sofia Vassilieva was also a delight to watch. Awesome entertaining action from start to finish. The plot line was refreshing even if there were some 'clichéd' moments. All in all a wonderful family movie. Kids, teens and adults will love it because there is something in it for everyone. Although there was something about the end that made you feel it shouldn't have ended there--maybe it's the hook for the sequel. Well, I'm hooked!
