 | I really enjoyed the original version of this movie, but I am a huge Dennis Quaid fan, I think he is a wonderful actor. I love the updates that they made to this movie. Ms. Lohan who has become the Disney it girl has really done a great job in this movie with her double role. I think that this movie is a great way to pass a calm Sunday afternoon. |

| This is a cute movie for kids and girl's sleepovers. Lindsay Lohan is a cute adorable actress and this is where she got her start. This is a funny story about twins who meet after being seprated, switch places and try to get their parent s back together |

| I know there's already been an original "Parent Trap" in the 60s but this version is definately worth the watch.
One thing that impressed me most is that both the twins were played by only one person that is Lindsay Lohan. She acts so naturally along with quaid and Richardson. The story and plot sure was a lot like the original one but it's still very touching and it's fun for all family members to watch especially for the last part where they went off to camp! You'll love it! |

| I've always loved the origninal movie, and was rather excited to finally see the new version, but was disapointed. Granted its cute, and maybe the original is a little less "disney-esque", but the original is so much better. The characters, the acting, the orginality... you can't beat the original. Still for a child, this works too. More a tv-movie. |

| This is cute and the people are more contemporary. However the remake lost many things in the translation. I like both Dennis Quaid "Undercover Blues" (1993) and Natasha Richardson but they just don't have the same interaction needed to pull it off. The tone is condescending.
Yes when you get a second chance you can improve on a good thing. However improve does not mean just use the title. Still if we don't compare, then all and all this is worth watching.
Don't take my word for it. Look for your self. "The Parent Trap" (1961)
