New York Minute (I) (2004)
2/10
Not Worth A Minute
31 May 2005
There isn't much to say about this movie other than it bored me out of my mind. Seriously. I yawned all throughout it in the theater.

The plot is senseless and unbelievable-and not in a good, entertaining way. It focuses on two twin sisters living in New York, livin' the good life with their typical cliché' of a workaholic father. As always, Ashley Olsen plays the conservative, uptight, college-bound sister that seems even more compulsive than me, and Mary Kate plays the rebel. Somehow, on her way to a college interview, Jane Ryan (Ashley) loses her stupid date book, runs into Roxy (Mary Kate), and they get entangled in a black market scam. In the meantime, Roxy is also chased by a guy who thinks he's MacGyver (Eugene Levy), to catch her ditching school. Confused? It doesn't make much sense if you see it, either.

Every scene, it feels like it might get funnier, but then throws in another immature joke or cliché', and the audience is disappointed again. It's an endless excuse for Mary-Kate and Ashley to parade around naked. And to tote around the ugliest little bald dog that the plot includes. Some parts actually do border on being mildly stimulating, like one minute of it.

In short, IT SUCKS! For sisters worth 2 billion, you'd think that they would put some money, time, or effort into their first feature film.
