1st watched 7/8/2023 - (Dir- Steve Purcell):
Extremely lame Mary Kate & Ashley vehicle that is really just a lot of bad acting, writing, and music videos. The only thing that is positive is some of the music done by Steve Porcaro(formerly of Toto). Typical story-line where the twins are looking forward to their vacation with friends in Hawaii, but their parents hijack them into a trip to the Bahamas instead(boohoo). The parents still give them their own room, and too much leeway; in my opinion; so it's kind of like their alone anyway. They get into a series of issues with boys they meet on the island, and are given slaps on the wrists by their parents only to get into more serious trouble each time. The boys aren't really bad just brainless or doing things unknowingly against the law and on the last incident the girls land in jail. Megan Fox, in her first movie role, plays a terribly antagonistic character and is pretty bad. Not a good start for her in what turns out to be a pretty full career. Strange behind-the-scenes footage ends the film as we are told there will be another of these random adventures coming soon....blah! Not needed, in my opinion.
