¨Parent Trap¨

In Writing class we were asked to write a review about one of the best movies we ever saw. Apart from that, we worked in class all the review aspects an some writing tips.


Last week I saw one of the most hilarious and enjoyable movie ever, called ¨Parent Trap¨ an American romantic comedy- drama filmed in 1988. It was directed by Nancy Meyers and produced by Charles Shyer. The highlight for me was the plot, during a summer camp two pre-teens named Hallie and Annie met, and they realised that they identical twins, from an american winemaker father (Nick) and a famous dress designer mother (Elizabeth). However, they lived on two different extremes of the world. Elizabeth with Hallie in London and Nick with Annie in California. The girls later choose to swap to make their parents meet (again).

 For starters, I personally believed that the visual effects were astonishing and mind blowing. It was breathtaking to watch the twins, on every scene, they looked identical, however they were two different actresses. It was preposterous the visual effects and the incredible technic they used. They were two different actresses, however they ¨placed¨ Lindsay Lohan's face , so as to make it even more creditable. Apart from that, they made them different looks and haircuts. It was really amazing.

 The other thing I liked the most was the plot. It was a great surprise the twisted and beyond-belief ending. I would really recommend it! You should probably give it a miss if you enjoy intriguing and absorbing films.

 To sum up, I would highly recommend ¨Parent Trap¨ since it has every ingredient a movie needs to be hilarious, an enjoyable plot, talented actors, charismatic and comic scenes and a legendary ending. If that is your thing , then you should give it a try.
