Since striking out from the sitcom Full House, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have built up quite a following in the United States. But the toothsome twosome's antics have yet to catch on here and this frivolous teen caper suggests plenty of reasons why. Unable to stay schtum after witnessing a crime, the twins are whisked off to Sydney under the FBI's Witness Protection Programme. But the mobsters soon catch up with them and a modicum of plot threatens to interrupt their shopping and sightseeing. With its patronising depiction of Australia as a land of endless beach parties, this is eminently resistible fluff.
One of the not so good Mary-Kate & Ashley movies. If you have to rent one of their movies I'd go for When in Rome or Passport to Paris at a push.
According to my 9 year old daughter, Mary-Kate and Ashley movies fall into two categories, good ones and not very good ones. This one is in the 'good ones' category. Does this say it all for the target audience?
