FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
carlbacon I finally saw this movie for the first time today. I must say I found the actual film itself was rather lack-luster, and I agree with some people here about having to fast forward through some parts because it gets a little boring at times. Don't get me wrong, there were some comical and amusing moments through out the movie from time to time, but nothing really spectacular. However, I must saying, that Kathy Greenwood absolutely shined in this movie. She did an excellent job playing mother to the Olsen twins' Sam and Emma. It makes me wish that more people would offer Kathy bigger roles in movies more often.So I ask you, which is the real loser, me or the film? *shrugs*
David, Film Freak Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen ('Full House', 'To Grandmother's House We Go') play twin sisters (are there any other kind for these two?!). Sam (Mary-Kate) is the sporty, less-popular one, while Emma (Ashley) is the boy and fashion-obsessed one.Here, the twins sign up for their dad's soccer team (which, to their dad Jerry's dismay, has turned co-ed), however, Emma is picked first out of pity for her dad's Hurricanes team, while Sam is shafted into the loser-ish Buzzards team.So, to help eachother out, Sam and Emma trade places with eachother (how original!) to play on the opposite teams... until their mom finds out.Stuck with their original placings, Sam becomes the star buzzard, while Emma does practically nothing on field except distract the other players... until, the final game (coincidentally between the Buzzards and Hurricanes), where they find Emma has a hidden talent...goalie.A much better Olsen film than most, with their acting talents improving through the course of it. Not bad at all.
Kate-162 But, these two are in serious need of a new plot. It's the same thing over and over again... they switch places. Geeeezzzz..... when will it end? Who knows... maybe if they had a different plot, they would actually look like good actresses.It's not too bad, but, if you're a parent, let the kids watch this one on their own!
bl29x5 This movie exceeds any limit or bounds of imaginative writing. I should say that whatever method of putting this on the silver screen where it belongs is well worth it. This film is truly breathtaking, and an Oscar caliber performance by both sisters as they struggle in a world of peewee sports and puberty. The cinematography was captivating to say the least!
