Desertman84 The Olsen Twins - Mary-Kate and Ashley - star in this lighthearted family movie about twin sisters who play cupid for their dad .Tess and Emily Tyler are twelve-year-old twin sisters who is a daughter of a wealthy and successful artist,Maxwell Tyler.Their mother died a few years back and they feel that their father is sad and is in need of a girlfriend.After learning that their father has had several unsuccessful dates,they decide to create a billboard for him overlooking the busy Los Angeles street.After many women applied,their father finds someone.But his work suffered and the agent feels that he needs to get out of any relationship to produce better art. Well,the movie is typical of what the Olsen Twins and they managed themselves to become a successful cottage industry back in the 90's.As expected,it was simplistic,predictable and full of clichéd moments.Their fans know this already but anyone who is not used to their movies might feel discomfort watching it.
bethlaubenthal Maxwell Tyler is an overworked single artist. His girls, Emily and Tess, see how much he has changed since their mother died. The girls are on a mission to help their father find true love again. They paint a billboard to advertise their dad. It makes the news. Their father is not all that happy about it. Maxwell's agent is a shady character. Maxwell's agent tries everything to discourage potential relationships between Maxwell and other women. Emily and Tess soon catch on to that. Although I don't watch many Mary-Kate and Ashley movies, I really liked this one. Emily and Tess have a sense of duty to their father, to help him regain a part of his life that was destroyed when his first wife died. It is a touching story with a surprising ending. This movie is aimed at the younger generation of viewers. However, I would recommend it to anyone.
crash5 "Like OMG! This movie was like so...totally...cool to the max!" NOT!!! Can you say lame or what? This is exactly like all their other movies! (Dead mom, trying to fix up their dad etc...) The twins are the worst actresses ever to cross the screen...them and all their stupid little wanna-be friends that hang around the pool in the movie. That Cody kid and that Tattoo jerk were such little snots. "I did the mix!" What kind of line is that? And what's up with the girls painting their dads face on the billboard...finished it all in one night? That's hard to believe. Most of their lines are generic sayings like, "Cool to the max!" and "Totally awesome!" Whoever was talking about the plot holes in this movie was right! I mean, didn't the kids say how the lady at the cafe had named a sandwich after them? Then when they go in there to eat at the beginning the waitress is like, "Oooh okay. One Tyler Family Special coming up!" and she brings them an ice cream sundae. The whole movie was stupid and not worth watching. Avoid this at all costs!
wills_queen Possibly the worst movie ever. See "Switching Goals" instead. It didn't make any sense. No 12 year old can get a tattoo without parental consent, especially one that preppy and annoying. The acting was atrocious, the storyline stupid, and I'm glad I saw this movie for free, I never want to go see it again.
