Movie Info

Vada Sultenfuss (Anna Chlumsky) is a 13-year-old girl searching for identity and independence. For a class project, she must write about someone she hasn't met but still admires, so she chooses her late biological mother. In order to learn more, Vada journeys to Los Angeles on a school break, staying with her uncle Phil (Richard Masur). Nick (Austin O'Brien), Phil's girlfriend's son, reluctantly agrees to show Vada around the city. But, before long, he's wrapped up in her search for truth.

Audience Reviews for My Girl 2

  • May 07, 2014
    Bland in comparison to the first, probably due to the total lack of Macualy Culkin & almost total lack of Jamie Lee Curtis & Dan Ackroyd.

    What does Vada learn in the predecessor? How to overcome dealing in death and continuous selflessness. In this film she learns nothing much other than what her late birth mom was like. Talk about character development too minimal this time. This sequel is not as memorable and emotionally gripping, but it was nice seeing Chlumsky perform a warm screen personality again.
    Max G Super Reviewer

    Mediocre follow-up to the original that doesn't have the same coming of age feel
    Jackson W Super Reviewer

    To much sentimental, to much bad...
