It Takes Two
In this "Prince and the Pauper"-inspired tale, two girls who are the spitting image of each other decide to switch places to bring their lonely parents together before adoption separates them forever. Tomboy Amanda resides in a Manhattan orphanage, where she receives lots of attention from social worker Diane Barrows, whom she adores. Alyssa is the cultured daughter (snotty rich kid) of wealthy widower Roger Calloway, and a dead ringer for Amanda. The two girls meet when Amanda attends a camp near Alyssa's home, and they like each other so much that they hatch a plan: to match-make their parents, so they can all live together happily ever after. But there's a fly in the ointment--Roger's witchy, golddigging, child-hating fiancee Clarice.

A modern, not very interesting, variation on The Prince and the Pauper, which may keep those who can identify with its twee heroines moderately quiet on a rainy afternoon.

A harmless feel good film with a few too many convenient coincidences and very predictable but nicely whiles away a few hours.
