The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2

This sequel to an okay first movie is only so-so. It got a bit annoying, all the talk of how special the pants were, and how they keep the girls together....instead of the girls actually working to be friends, and realizing that, with them going off to separate colleges, they would of course grow apart at least a little bit as they met new people and had new experiences. The characters are annoying in this movie, because they don't seem to want to grow up.....I hope this is the last movie for this franchise, because unless the characters undergo a LOT of growth, I refuse to watch another of this kind of movie. I knew I shouldn't have taken it home, based on what I could see of the movie on my store's trailer tape (just a lot of whining that doesn't seem too appealing), but I decided to give it a go anyway...and now I wish I hadn't!
