The Parent Trap

CriticsCritics: 75
AudienceAudience: 6.9

Separated after their parents’ divorce, identical twin girls unexpectedly meet at summer camp and discover they are sisters. They secretly switch places to spend time with the parent they have never known and try to bring their divided family back together.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like warm, playful family comedies such as Freaky Friday or Father of the Bride; Not for you if you prefer realistic dramas or subtle humor.
