Parental Guidance.Info Stars: Ashley Olsen, Mary-Kate Olsen, Eugene Levy, Andy Richter, Riley Smith, Jared Padalecki

Director: Dennie Gordon

Summary: Sisters Jane and Roxy Ryan just don't get along and one day Jane tries for a place in an overseas college while Roxy meets her favourite punk rock band. As their day becomes more and more chaotic they decide to unite and face the forces around them together.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen prove they've graduated from their child protege status with this sassy comedy from director Dennie Gordon (WHAT A GIRL WANTS). The teenage duo play Long Island-based twins Roxy (Mary-Kate) and Jane (Ashley), who may be identical in appearance, but rarely see eye-to-eye in their personal lives. On a Manhattan-bound train, the rebellious Roxy plans on cutting class, attending a rock video shoot, and presenting her demo tape to the band's manager. Meanwhile, the straight-laced Jane is heading to Columbia University, where she hopes to gain a college scholarship. Disaster strikes when the duo are unceremoniously dumped from the train, and a shady criminal places a microchip in Roxy's bag. Help is at hand in the form of Bennie Bang (Andy Richter), who offers the twins a ride in his limo. But he is actually after the microchip they unknowingly possess. Fleeing his clutches, Jane leaves her precious dayplanner in the car, and a screwball chase around Manhattan begins. Bennie is in hot pursuit, but so is Max Lomax (Eugene Levy), Roxy's truancy officer who is determined to catch the errant twin. Some crazy capers throughout the Big Apple ensue, and various set pieces are engineered to show off the vivacious and endearing charms of the two sisters. Levy and Richter give suitably wacky turns in their supporting roles, and the city of New York provides a glorious backdrop for the Olsens' acting talents.

Editor's Review

amazon.co.uk Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen play good girl/bad girl sisters who suddenly find themselves on a high-speed chase escaping crooks, attracting hunks, and wreaking havoc in this lightweight comedy set in the Big Apple. Ashley plays high school scholar Jane Ryan, an overachiever with her sights set on winning a college scholarship competition. Mary-Kate plays her sister, Roxy, a rebellious teen truant who would rather be a rock star than a student. Since their mother's death, the sisters' relationship has been strained. Now their worlds collide when a day in Manhattan forces Jane and Roxy to join forces, overcoming their differences to battle an international smuggling ring while trying to make it in time for Jane's competition. While the script is predictably bland, viewers will enjoy the comedic strengths of Eugene Levy (Serendipity, American Pie) as Roxy's ubiquitous truant officer. Though the twins manage some decent slapstick, their sensuality, sexual innuendo, and suggestive disrobing is disappointing. DVD bonus features include some hilarious bloopers and alternate endings.
