Lisa Alspector
This 1998 romantic comedy mostly bores with its cumbersome exposition and close-ups of trivial objects scattered throughout lackluster montage sequences.
Joe Leydon
New pic is slick, sentimental and exceptionally well cast, with enough cross-generational appeal to suggest strong commercial potential.
Wally Hammond
The light comedy is sweetly timed, the direction smart and assured, and the visuals bright, colourful, unobtrusive and faultless.
Roger Ebert
Movies like this remember how much fun escapism can be.
Janet Maslin
The lavish, super-cute new version of The Parent Trap is a remake of the 1961 Hayley Mills hit, which was seriously adorable in its own right

Lindsey Lohan does not have a twin! Terribly amazing movie. I love everything about young Lindsey Lohan in this film. Thanks to her portrayal of Annie and Hallie I was forever enchanted, plus it became an incredibly shocking surprise to me to find out that the movie didn't use twins but that Lindsey played both parts. I can't be the only one that thought Lindsey Lohan had a twin!
Most upset of ALL Isn't this an American Movie? Why is it NOT available to U.S...super mad,sad,& all the words that end with ad...:-( -(-(
