Review of Mystic Pizza (1988) by Intuciic . — 16 Apr 2013
The film has been described as a romantic comedy, although it does not follow the normal format of the standard Hollywood rom-com. A better description would probably be a coming-of-age story, set against a well-realised background of small- town life.
In a traditional romantic comedy the main focus of interest would be Jojo finding the love of her life; here the focus is on all three characters learning lessons about life.Basically, it's about three girls discovering what their standards for love are going to be.
This is not exactly an original theme, but "Mystic Pizza" adds enough original touches to keep it interesting.
