It's a remake of the Disney classic. Lindsay Lohan plays identical twins separated after their parents (Dennis Quaid, Natasha Richardson) divorced. They reunite at summer camp and discover their connection. They devise a plan to switch places to see the other parent, and force them to meet again.
The plot is stupid. The premise of splitting twins is draconian. The plan is actually at the level of an 11 year old's mind. It's a farce worthy of early 60s Disney.
Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson make for a likable couple. But it's Lindsay Lohan who does some great kid-acting here. She's playing two different characters with two different accents, and she plays them convincingly. It's incredible to see her acting two sides of the same conversation without missing a beat. It's easy to see her potential.
