A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
The Olsen Twins - Mary-Kate and Ashley - star in this lighthearted family movie about twin sisters who play cupid for their dad .Tess and Emily Tyler are twelve-year-old twin sisters who is a daughter of a wealthy and successful artist,Maxwell Tyler.Their mother died a few years back and they feel that their father is sad and is in need of a girlfriend.After learning that their father has had several unsuccessful dates,they decide to create a billboard for him overlooking the busy Los Angeles street.After many women applied,their father finds someone.But his work suffered and the agent feels that he needs to get out of any relationship to produce better art. Well,the movie is typical of what the Olsen Twins and they managed themselves to become a successful cottage industry back in the 90's.As expected,it was simplistic,predictable and full of clichéd moments.Their fans know this already but anyone who is not used to their movies might feel discomfort watching it.
Is it just me, or are all of Mary-Kate and Ashley's movie exactly the same? How many more times can I see them in a family where the mother is dead, and the dad is raising them while trying to find some happiness of his own. I'm tired of seeing them trying to switch places to get their dad to meet the girl of his dreams. The movie was so horrible that you could drive a truck through the plot holes. Like...if Ashley was so horrible at diving...what would make her all the sudden have a better dive than her sister who is like the "almighty champion" of diving? And how would a 12 year old little freak wannabe have a tattoo and an eyebrow ring? The only thing that's cute in this movie is Mary-Kate and Ashley's hair. Save you money and watch it on FOX Family.
Okay...there are these two girls, twins, and about the only thing that IS cute about this movie is their hair! I would rather watch some dumb cartoon than this superficial piece of nothing. I grant you that maybe incredibly young children find this type of farce enjoyable but anyone older than 5 will realize the shallowness of this movie...my advice watch Haley Mills in the Parent Trap if you want a movie with adorable twins
This movie is funny with Mary - Kate & Ashley playing Emily and Tess which one is surfer and the other a swimmer. I like the part when they found out that Brooke's son is the skate boarding rival guy and I like too when Cody tell Emily or Tess by mistake that he has a crush on her. But my favorite part is when I we hear the rap of Nigel talking about taking the money of Max. This movie is funny with beautiful girls and cute guys =+)
