Brief synopsis of Holiday In The Sun

In HOLIDAY IN THE SUN, two twin sisters complain about having to take a vacation to the Bahamas, since it causes them to miss an opportunity to tour Hawaii with their friends. The girls soon discover that the lush tropical setting, horseback riding, and befriending sea animals all gives the Bahamas a certain appeal. The appearance of some sweet, handsome young men enables the girls to make some more discoveries as well. Soon, though, their island paradise clouds over with danger when antique smugglers cross the sisters' paths. Filmed in the Bahamas, this Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen vehicle captures of the blossoming of the identical duo, transforming the girls from mere child stars to fully fledged teen idols.

Jugulum from Up my own passage! , 01/01/2006

My Daughter watched this film but was disapointed that the story took 3/4 of the film to kick in.

Yes it can be watched by the whole family and even aunty prudance would find it wholesome family fun, but come on at least put a story in to it.

Rated - 5 starsHAVE A HOLIDAY IN THE SUN

SHAYNE from MID-GLAMORGAN , 31/08/2005

In Holiday in the Sun, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (playing twins Alex and Madison) are whisked away to the Bahamas in a private jet by their pilot dad, though they are initially disappointed to be missing their class trip to Hawaii.

But the 15-year-olds recover upon meeting up with their mum on the sunny tarmac, checking into their own suite at the Atlantis resort, and getting acquainted with some cute boys on the island.

Parents may see this 88-minute movie as one long advertisement for the Paradise Island resort, with the constant mentioning of its name and endless showcasing of its attractions. But kids, particularly girls ages 7 to 12, will get a kick out of Alex's rivalry with the rich superwitch Brianna for marine worker Jordan's affections. Then there's the updated Cyrano storyline, with Dad's business partner's son Griffen coaching dim-but-likable Scott on how to win over Madison. Throw in an antiquities smuggling subplot, some dolphin hugging, horseback riding, and wave running and you've got some fairly innocent entertainment augmented with frothy tunes by teen group up-and-comers Play, Empty Trash (featuring vocals by the twins), The American Girls, and Noogie

My daughter loved the film and is at the right age, at 7, to look up to the girls and appreciate the film.
