Great movie
2 August 2008
To be honest i thought that the movie was great,i have been a very big fan of Louise Rennison since i was in my mid teens and i love all her books. The movie entitled everything which the books stand for which is comedy,romance,teen drama and friendship.

Don't feel that with out reading the books you would not understand what the movie is about because everything is explained from the snogging scale to why slim is called slim.

Although i feel that the movie is somewhat lacking when it comes to Georgia's vocabulary because she uses terms which non book readers would understand. However if you are devoted to the books you won't hear such words staga 14 or mutti or fatti but just school, mom and dad. Which kind of leaves the die heart fan unsatisfied.

The cast was well chosen and the story line did change a little bit when compared to the books but it still included all the important bits from the books and now i'm hoping that their might be a sequel at some point in the future.

Its worth watching.

A fan's opinion
24 September 2007
This Colombian drama has managed to capture the hearts not only of its viewers at home (Colombia) but also other Latinos around the world due to its amazing storyline and fantastic characters. Like most modern Colombian dramas the storyline has an equal amount of romance and comedy. The characters within this drama are fantastic and very well develop there isn't one single episode where you are not laughing or at your edge of your seat waiting for what happens next. The actors have done an amazing job making their characters come to life but I must say that I was impressed by fabulous acting of its two lead actors Víctor Hugo Cabrera and Marcela Carvajal. However the most impressive actor was Santiago Alarcón who played Jaime Rincon within the drama.

I recommend this drama to anyone that can understand the Spanish language because this drama is the best Colombian drama since the international smash hit Betty la fea a.k.a Ugly Betty (The original version) due to its great comedy and fantastic acting.

This drama can be found online. .

Pobre diabla (2000– )

Pobre Diabla a great Peruvian no vela
5 September 2006
Pobre Diabla doesn't only have a great story line with wonderful actress and actors but it contains a certain element that captures the attention of the viewer from the 1st episode although the story may processed very slowly at first but towards the middle it has the viewer addicted. The beginning is very original and different compared to other Latin series but it still holds the elements that makes a great Latin soap love, drama, comedy and action. I also recommend that you listen closely to the soundtrack of this no vela which is amazing.

This no vela is worth watching I recommended to any true romantic and, no vela fan.
