Mystic Pizza
"Filled with heart and humor" (The New York Times), Mystic Pizza charts the lives and loves of three unforgettable waitresses in a little town called Mystic. Starring Julia Roberts (Erin Brockovich), Annabeth Gish (Beautiful Girls) and Lili Taylor (The Haunting) Mystic Pizza "has all the right ingredients of a main-course favorite" (Video Movie Guide).
For sexy Daisy Araujo (Roberts), her sensible sister Kat (Gish) and their wisecracking friend Jojo (Taylor), the summer after high school is a summer they'll never forget. Slinging pizza at a local restaurant, the three girls share their hopes, dreams and plans for escaping their small town. And when Daisy is swept off her feet by a wealthy young man named Charles, they all think she's found her ticket out. But when the girls learn that Charles isn't the man they think he is, they discover that with friendship and self-respect, not only will they find real happiness (and a way out of Mystic)...they just might find themselves!

Great Movie - emmalreese
Mystic Pizza is the story of love, and friendship. It's a great movie that deals with the ups and downs of life and romance.
Julia Roberts is at her best, wheather you love or hate Julia you'll enjoy Mystic Pizza which doesn't just focus on that one main character, but everyone else in the film.
Mystic Pizza is a Coming-of-age story that flirts with melodrama but is delivered by wonderful performances.Julia's Best (next to Pretty Woman) - xsnrg
I must admit that I am not a huge Julia Roberts fan, but this movie was one of my favourites growing up in the 80's. Even though it's about love, friendship and sisterhood (a far cry from what I usually watch) I urge everyone to watch it at least once.A sweet coming-of-age tale - Willibrord
I would recommend this movie to anybody -- love or hate Julia Roberts as they might. The performances are superb and perfectly capture the bewildering and often painful stage between adolescence and adulthood without sacrificing humour on the altar of seriousness.
