United States | The Washington Post | "The emotional story and fine acting are enough to make this a must-see movie for teen girls. The real surprise is that they can make a grown man cry." | POS |
United States | ReelViews | "There's enough truth about friendship, love, and life in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants to offer solid entertainment to almost anyone who gives it a chance" | POS |

United Kingdom | Empire | "There are some engaging moments, but director Ken Kwapis fails to achieve a distinctive tone" | NEU |
