Sorry, this movie sucks
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The Olson Twins have fun in their movies and this is no exception. I thought that this is one of their cute movies because they like to add interesting facts and historical sites as well as cool locations. I like this one because this is a movie that you can have children get into without putting them to sleep. The girls bring fun and entertainment to the screen in which ever movie they make.
This is quite an awful little film. It is slow-paced, stiff-acted and boring. Of course, considering the main cast are two twin eight year olds, that comes as no surprise. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen got fame from "Full House," an emotionally controlling and contrived television show. I always thought the "little kid" they had on the show was a bad actress(es). Now, they have spun off countless "mystery films" and cheap little straight-too-video movies. I am surprised anyone thought these little girls had talent, but then again, everyone thought Macauley Culkin was great, so everybody will probably think these twins are the best ever! 1/5 stars --John Ulmer
Give the parents a break...this movie is sad moviemaking. If the Olsen twins had stayed young, maybe they would have more success on the silver screen. However, as they get older their acting skills continue to show that looks is all they have. And please save us from the acting on the adult's parts. They were obviously as bored as I was. I voted 1/10.
This is a cliche movie about saving a dude ranch from the evil developers! Recycled plot. Oh well. :-) The Olsen twins redeem it with their cheery faces.Definitely, not the Olsen twins best movie but still...If you are an Olsen twin junkie then you have to see this one anyways.
