This is one of the greatest movies ever. Shelly Long probably deserves an Oscar or Academy Award or whatever you richers hand out to these people for doing their jobs correctly. Craig T Nelson was on top of his game and there were awesome cameos from Cheech and Lew Alcindor. I love how she did her outfit to look stylish and hip. Probably one of the best feel good endings ever. Definitely needs a sequel. 10 Stars easy.
Brief Description:
As Phyllis, a Beverly Hills housewife, is in the middle of a divorce, she tries to find focus in her life by taking over her daughter's (Hannah) Wilderness Girl troop. Among the girls are Tiffany, (who her father has to bribe to attend meetings, Emily (the daughter of an out of work actor, whose financial difficulties hinders her wanting to participate in certain activities), the neurotic Tessa (whose parents divorce has forced her into therapy twice a week), the hostile Chica (whose parents are too busy with their own lives to even remember her birthday), and Claire (the child star who see the wilderness girls as her chance to lead a "normal" life). Phyllis then begins to take the girls camping at a Beverly Hills hotel and earn patches relating to material things. The district leader, Velda, feels the troop should be disbanded. However, the head of the Wilderness girls organization believes that as long as Phyllis has taken an active interest in the girls, that is the only thing that's important. Then Velda begins to sabotage the girls endlessly. Written by Theresa
A soon to be divorced Beverly Hills society wife (Phyllis Nefler) is determined to prove to her husband (Freddy) and herself that she can finish what she starts out to do. She soon realizes that being a Wilderness Girls' den mother to a troop of Beverly Hills-bred girls is not as easy as buying cookies.

Great Quotes:
Muffler Man: Have your fun now, Phyllis, but when it's all over, you're gonna be shopping at Pic N Save
Velda: What is this a pajama party? Is this what you call roughing it?
Girl: One bathroom for 9 people, yes.
Cheech: Annie Herman, BOY-YOY-YOING!
I'm sure it's nice to live in the woods and eat bark
Never go to Reno, girls. The California community property laws cannot be beat.
