Parent Trap

Pros: Entertaining movie with good cast. Lohan before she spun out of control.
Cons: Predictable.

Remakes have been made of several movies, some better than others. Disney has made newer versions of several of their older, successful movies. I think one of the better remakes was 1998's The Parent Trap. Hallie Parker ...

Pros: fun movie, heartwarming and entertaining
Cons: much suspension of disbelief required

Yesterday, I finished reading the LOST tie-in novel Bad Twin, so I have had twins on the brain, which led me naturally to The Parent Trap, the Nancy ...

Pros: Good Disney movie from 1998, Lindsay Lohan at her best
Cons: The overkill of sappy music in parts

Tonight on the Disney Channel, the "click-n-pick" movie of the week was The Parent Trap. This modern version is a remake of the original 1961 Parent Trap that starred Hayley Mills. This was at least my fifth viewing of the movie, since we ...

Pros: Entertaining, funny, Lindsey Lohan is a talented actress
Cons: Occasionally goes a bit overboard with keeping it simple

A few months ago I was looking for a movie my daughter and I could cuddle up on the couch and watch. After seeing Zoom a million times in the last few months I finally had to give an intervention and insist we find another movie to enjoy. So we looked ...

Pros: Lindsay Lohan
Cons: It's not the original

One of the first VHS tapes that my family owned when I was young was the 1961 hit The Parent Trap. Starring the sweet but sassy Hayley Mills in a dual role as Sharon McKendrick and Susan Evers as a set of twins separated at birth, I have fond memories ...

Pros: Lohan as the twins; the jazz music in the beginning; the landscaping
Cons: Some areas of harsh dialogue; there's a few things missing here

`The Parent Trap' tells a wonderful story of two young girls who meet each other at camp only to discover that they are twin sisters whose parents divorced many, many years ago. They go on a mission to trick their parents into getting back together. To ...

Pros: Fine performance by Lindsay Lohan, fitting remake
Cons: One slightly graphic scene

I'm a big fan of classic movies, and usually the remakes don't live up to the originals. Happily, the 1998 remake of The Parent Trap is a fine successor to the earlier Hayley Mills film.

The story is the same. Two twin girls, separated when...

Pros: Excellent movie especially if you to were a child who's parents were separated.
Cons: none

Well not to be sarcastic but, are we not almost all of us, not all but, most of us from a home with parents that separated when we were kid's and was it not alway's your dream also to get your parents back together and have a perfect dream life that we...

Pros: Good cast, especially Lindsay Lohan
Cons: Some missing scenes

When I was a child, I rarely went to the movie theater. In fact my family and I only ever went to the drive-in two times. That first time was very special, we went to see 101 Dalmations, but it was the other feature that really got to me. It was the...

Pros: loving and fun
Cons: none

I watched this movie the other day with my niece on the Disney Channel and I must say it was very good. I recommend it to everyone of all age and is good for all movie occasions.

Of course it's a remake of the 1961 release, but I haven't seen...

Pros: It's lighthearted fun. A worthy remake.
Cons: More for girls than boys, but they may like it too.

....aren't so different after all.

Here is a revised review of this movie. The first one I wrote was too long, so I shortened it and didn't realize until someone commented, that I had actually left out all the details of the movie's plot. I...

Pros: Lindsey Lohan as both "twins" is remarkable. Totally charming and entertaining. For the entire family.
Cons: None.

THE PARENT TRAP: Family comedy. Nancy Meyers's able remake of the 1961 classic starring Halley Mills, succeeds delightfully on the strength of it's very talented lead actress, Lindsay Lohan. Lohan plays 11-year-old twins Hallie and Annie who were...

Pros: Keeps you laughing
Cons: Can't find any

It is not often that I see a remake and like both the original and remake. This is one of the few. I was delighted with how some of the plot stayed the same from the original and also happy with the updates. And how many of you noticed the actress...

Pros: Funny, characters, acting performances, creativity
Cons: Nadda

Preview

Pros: Everything!--Especially Lindsay Lohan who played both roles (Natasha was great too!)
Cons: None!

The Parent Trap remake is a more realistic portrayl of separated families. The actors were carefully chosen to create this modern film masterpiece. Lindsay Lohan did a wonderful job playing both Hallie Parker and Annie James. The parents, Nick Parker...
