The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Woman and Yes Men also...... will fall in love with this film. For anyone whose ever had a " True " best friend, you will be so Enhanched with Beaches. It's funny, relatable, Sad, Sweet, and so Entertaining. In my opinion, Bette's finest role, since the " Rose ". No word of a lie.......bring along the Kleenex!!!!!!

The usual--been done to death--two friends share different lives and one dies to save the other. It'd been much better film if Bette Midler died at the beginning. However, since she is a self-proclaimed JAP, that wasn't about to happen and it also meant the world revolved around her (both in fantasy and real life). She just had to be the successful one who lived because she was Bette!!!!! They must've had a cheap budget because they dredged up the worst B movie actress of that or any time, Barbara 'Seagull' Hersey. LOL. She could be the epitome of trite. Ms. Seagull's chief claim to fame was being in a relationship with one of the you know who brother actors who ended up hanging in a closet in the Far East while on vacation. I guess he was trying to avoid the press.

The ambitious singer CC and the rich, but shy Hillary meet as 11-year olds, and embark on a life-long friendship, throughout relationships and splits, career ups and downs, romantic rivalries, financial rollercoasters and, ultimately, a dose of Glamorous Hollywood Fatal Disease.This film is a tearjerker chickflick of some renown, and I have never seen it until now (2016) despite in being released 28 years ago. This has not been deliberate: I may not be part of the target demographic for tearjerker chickflicks, but I am not closed to their appeal. In fact, I was quite looking forward to shedding a tear or two, and the old bottom lip quivered from time to time in anticipation as the rather soapy events of the story unfolded.And then it got to the point where the inevitable took place, and I sat there, resolutely unmoved. Given that the whole point of the movie was, well, you know what the point was, I felt that it was delivered with such tasteful lack of obviousness that it carried little emotional weight. I know that this is not the case for others, but I was quite disappointed not to feel more.Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey are both fine.

I love the movie Beaches so much I bought it on Amazon. Hillary dies of cardiomyopathy in the movie and that's what I have. I watch her sitting outside her beach house or sitting in her pajamas and I think about myself. Also, her last scene in the hospital gasping for air reminds me of myself when I was in the hospital. In the movie, Hillary says you know I can't walk that far when C.C. asks her to go for lobsters. Well, I have the same problem. Whoever made this movie knew what they were talking about when they show Hillary's cardiomyopathy. I just love this movie so much because it shows an accurate description of Hillary's illness. I felt bad for her daughter, Victoria also.
