Sadly Over-hyped

Bea Swanson

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Thea acting was probably 3.6 for Mary kate and ashley's performances, not the best out of this movie, but cute. and the movie was a naughty child thing but the movie was OK so it's because the acting was not terrible and not the best movie and acting of all, but it was good. So this movie is not bad connected to not horrible and not great but still I'll give it a 6.5 for some funny scenes and the acting scenes were pretty good so I'll be nice to the movie since it's old but I think a maybe 5 or 6 year old will like this movie and even some of the campers. This is a total rip copy off of the Parent traps movies and so I liked the Parent trap and this movie is still quite remarkable for 1995 but not the best year to release movies out,I thought the 2001 and the 2002's movies were quite remarkable and unforgettable like I am Sam or any other movie released out then in the 1990s but I guess 8 miles was a good movie too but beware that movie is rated R but for opinion I'll give this movie "A great of a comedy film" I say.

This film is by far the best work of the Olsen Twins. If you think that all Mary-Kate and Ashley movies are girly and lack substance, this movie defies that stereotype. IF YOU ONLY WATCH ONE MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY MOVIE, THIS IS THE ONE TO SEE! Not to mention, of course, this movie has Kirstie Alley in it. What more could you ask? Well, there's more; Do you remember the actress who played Ross Geller's ex-wife, Carol, on "Friends"? Jane Sibbett plays the despicable gold digger Clarise Kensington who's only wish is to get the wealthy Roger Callaway (Steve Guttenburg) and his immense fortune all to herself. The twins play the lovable Amanda and Alyssa - identical strangers. "It Takes Two" is the best movie about twins along with Lindsay Lohan's "The Parent Trap". Definitely the family movie (not the same as a children's movie) of the year. If anything, it won a Kid's Choice Award.

this has to be one of the worst movies i have ever seen, how could you people think that this movie is 5? this is very sad and makes me uneasy about these user ratings. 5?!?!?!?!?! this movie, first of all, had an unrealistic scenario from the beginning. IDENTICAL STRANGERS?!?!?!?!?! how is that possible. the writing is horrendous, and the olsons don't even do anything, they just walk around and see if the two people are going to make out or not. plus, I'm pretty sure they would get their asses sued if they flew a helicopter in and took the girl away from her new LEGALIZED parents, i didn't even watch this movie really, my sister was watching it on TV and i could not believe the little that i saw and i am ashamed that i saw the little i did see

This is such a great movie for kids and adults! The cast is great, including Kirstie Alley, the nice but tough cookie women who works at the adoption agency. Steve Guttenberg, the nice rich father who is engaged to Clarise Kensington (Jane Sibbett), the woman you love to hate. Ashley Olsen plays Alyssa Callaway, daughter of Roger Callaway (Steve Guttenberg) and a very polite and lovely young lady. Mary-Kate Olsen plays Amanda Lemmon an orphan that goes to the camp Roger's late wife and Alyssa's mother built years ago. She is also very close with Diane Barrows (Kirstie Alley). When the two girls meet unexpectidly they decide to switch places so tough girl Amanda can get rid of Clarise, and smart and witty Alyssa can get rid of the ButtKisses, the odd family who wants to adopt Amanda. The girls try to succeed in getting Diane and Roger together before his marraige to Clarise, and get Diane and Roger to adopt Amanda before the ButtKisses can. Philip Bosco also stars as Vincenzo, the loveable sweet butler of the Calaway's who always gives Alyssa a lot of slack and benifit of the doubt when it comes to her little silly escapades. All and all this is a great movie for everyone to enjoy. Great Cast, Great Movie, and the Olsen Twins at their best. 9-10/10!
