My Review On "The Parent Trap."

In this post, I’m reviewing the movie “The Parent Trap.” This movie was released in 1998 and it stars Lindsay Lohan. If you haven’t seen this movie, then I suggest that you do. This movie is a comedy about two identical twins that meet each other for the first time at summer camp. After playing many pranks on each other, they are forced to stay in a cabin together where they realize that they actually have a lot in common. After bonding over Oreos and peanut butter, they come up with a sneaky plan to switch places after camp and try to get their parents back together.

Now you may be asking why in the world would I review this movie for my blog? Well this movie is a perfect demonstration of sibling relationships and how far some siblings would go for each other and their families. It truly shows how sometimes, siblings can get on your nerves and drive you crazy, but in the end, you love them all the same. Even though Annie and Hallie didn’t even know each other until they met one summer at summer camp, they still ended up being best friends and loving each other like they had known each other, as sisters, their entire life.

I know that my brothers and I pull pranks on each other, we fight, we get on each others last nerve, but when it comes down to it, we always have each others back, just like they did in this movie.

Annie and Hallie really show how far they’ll go just so that they can get their parents back together and so they can live together and know what it’s like to have a sister. They get to the point where they push their father’s fiancé into a river just to try to get them to break up so that they can be a family again. They even went through all the trouble of finding and renting the same boat that their parents got married on to try to show them that they are meant to be together.

They were willing to trade places and go to other sides of the world for each other and for their parents even though their parents lied to them and they just met each other. Now in reality, two twins that just met each other probably wouldn’t go as far as trading places and going to other sides of the world. So the movie does exaggerate the bond between siblings just a bit, but despite this, this movie does a great job of showing that, no matter what, family is always there for you and that it is the most important thing.
