Summary: A must-HAVE
Review: The first time I saw this in the theater I knew I had to HAVE it in my collection! I don't buy a lot of movies but The Parent Trap captured my long term interest and I want it available for viewing whenever I want to lift my spirits. This is a feel-good, romantic comedy that leaves you wanting more. Lindsay is wonderful at developing two separate characters, and Quaid and Richardson are charmingly realistic. What more can I say - Buy It!

Summary: The Parent Trap by Rachel McEwen
Review: The Parent Trap is a lovely romance/comedy movie. The twins, Annie James and Hallie Parker (both played magnificently by Lindsay Lohan) Meet at a summer camp only to discover that they are identical twins. This leaves them alone to cook up sneaky schemes to switch places with eachother at the end of camp. They think they've got it all sorted out. They think they know everything about eachother. But they could not be more wrong. Their parents, ( wonderfully played by Natasha Richardson and Dennis Quaid) have got other ideas. This heartwarming movie will leave you laughing, crying and clenching your fists in fright, excitement and terror!

Summary: Better than Holes!
Review: I used to have this movie on video tape, but I decided to donate it to Salvation Army and get it on DVD, because I like DVDs better. I had the movie Holes on DVD, too. I bought the movie Holes on DVD when they first released. I really like Holes, too. The differences between Holes and The Parent Trap are good girls vs. bad boys. Holes talks about a camp that's for bad boys and The Parent Trap talks about the camp for good girls. That's why I like girls better than boys, that's why I like The Parent Trap better.

Summary: Believe it or not, it's even better than the original!
Review: When this film was originally released in theatres, I had no desire to see it because I didn't think it could possibly live up to the Hayley Mills version. Years later, I was flipping channels and saw it featured as the Disney movie of the week, and I fell in love with it! This version is even BETTER than the original! So much of the plot mimics the original story (twin girls separated at birth reunite and scheme to get their parents back together), and the small deviations are wonderful, like having one of the twins speak with a British accent (so cute!). Lindsay Lohan is absolutely adorable in her dual role: I don't think I've ever seen a little girl as charming as she is! Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson are a wonderful couple, and Elaine Hendrix is perfect as the girls' evil stepmother-to-be. Fans of the original "Partent Trap" will enjoy seeing Joanna Barnes in her cameo role as Meredith's mother, Vicki: a great tribute to the character she played in the 1961 version of the film). The music in this film is fantastic, and I highly suggest that you purchase the soundtrack in addition to the DVD. However, the one disappointment in this film is that the twin Lindsays don't do a modernized version of "Let's Get Together," which is the song that the twin Hayleys performed for their parents in the original film. in fact, there's no real musical number in this version at all (although they do briefly pay tribute to the classic song). Overall, though, this movie is FABULOUS: I'm still kicking myself for not having gone to see it in the theatre, but I'm thrilled to own the DVD!

Summary: Good but too fast paced
Review: Is this adequate remake of the 1960 Hayley Mills classic. I wish the pacing of this film had been slower as it would have been nearly as the original if it had just been slower paced as the actors (especially Lohan) are first rate in their acting.

Summary: The Parent Trap
Review: The Parent Trap is an excellent example of what it takes to make a great movie. A good storyline, decent actors, and a positive sentiment to it. While it will never be compared with classic films such as Gone With the Wind and Lawrence of Arabia, it is still very impressive. A fine debut film for Lindsay Lohan, she'll look back on this as a great booster to her career. She was much more impressive than Hayley Mills was, which is saying a lot.
The storyline orginization was also a vast improvement from the original. The characters were more scrutinized, which makes it all the better. In the original, it tooks almost a half-hour before we learned the name of one of the twins! Pretty pathetic.
The girlfriend in the remake (Meredith) actually looks young, unlike in the original where the girlfriend (Vicki) looked older than the father.
The Boston-California connection is pathetic compared to the London-California connection. As a former Boston resident,I know that the original Parent Trap did a pathetic job in labeling the Boston twin. Even back in 1961, Boston Brahmins did not come close to resembling her. The London seen was an improvement. The Disney producers actually filmed the London scences in London! And the London twin actually resembled a typical London aristocrat.
I also enjoyed the fact that the parents felt sympathetic to the twins in the remake. In the original, they appeared more cold-hearted and reticent to accept them.
While the story is predictable, it is still great. A nice feel-good film which is a good substitute from bloody, action films. I recommend it to just about anyone.
