Wolff rating: NOT BAD
Plot summary: Hopelessly dated Disney flick about two girls who meet at camp and discover that they are twins, and try to reunite their parents.
Biased, pithy comments: This is a wonderful job of blue-screening and matte-ing and actually a pleasantly daffy script filled with charming late 50-isms. But what makes this movie just wrenchingly terrifying is the 2-by-4 of morality that smashes us over the head about divorced parents and children's roles in their split. Though the twins don't shoulder the responsibility for the split, they do shoulder responsibility for getting them back together. These days, it has become very apparent that children of divorced parents take all together too much blame for their parents' differences, and having them meddle about reuniting them is just going to end in disappointment for the children. So, really, I enjoyed it but the message, in my humble opinion, is more dangerous than most of the over-violent or over-sexed TV shows kids watch these days. Every divorced kid (for a while) wants their parents to get back together again, and this movie just makes it seem like it's the ``right'' thing and something the children should strive for.
