Eloise at the Plaza

This movie is very cute. I wish the script had been better. Sofia is very talented. She is 10 now, she was 9 when it was filmed. Julie Andrews mentioned this in an interview the day the movie originally aired.

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!

I watched this movie on TV last night and thought it was adorable. Julie Andrews (my all-time fav) was great in her well-done switch from her usual elegant, classy English lady to the cockney Nanny. Eloise got on my nerves a little bit because she was so overly-dramatic, but that's how she's supposed to be, and I'm sure I came across the same way when I was 6. All in all, I'd say it was just an adorable movie, and I can't wait to see the next one this holiday season.

My children enjoyed the Eloise books many years ago - now my grandchildren have fun with the little tyrant of the Plaza. We love New York, and saw a lot of it in this movie. We love "The Little Prince" and were thrilled by the way it was worked into the plot. Every single character from the room service waiter to the carriage driver to the harried manager to the Yale student tutor to the young debutante and her mother, snobbish Mrs. Daniels to the chef to the main character was marvelous. Each one seemed made for the part. Julie Andrews as Nannie was so easy to identify with, and Eloise - what a wonderful six year old. She should be another Shirley Temple or more. My personal favorite was the son of the Prince. I could identify with his pain as well as his courage to test the New York waters, led magnificently by the naughty but nice Eloise. The plot is not only humorous but also profound. This is a childrens' an adults' and seniors' movie. I will never again walk into the marvelous Plaza Hotel at 59th and Central Park South without thinking of precious and precocious Eloise. Disney take note, I would love a sequel.

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
