The Other Me

I really enjoyed this movie! Sometimes it helps when you have zero expectations, but this movie really turned out to be a surprise and I would have liked it anyway. The story was a bit far fetched, but no more than you average fantasy. However, it had some really great stuff going for it. Andrew lawrence did an impressive job. He was totally believable in both roles, and was in general a pleasure to watch. The writing was tight and the direction good. I like most kid movies that have a good story, message and a sense of humor. This one had all that and more. This is a kid movie that I think anyone can enjoy. It's creative, entertaining, insightful and has a number of good messages. Parents will enjoy it right along with their kids, but you don't need to be either to watch this one; it's just plain fun for all ages. It had a weak point or two - the villains were perhaps a little too silly, but in general was as good as could be expected for the type of movie it is. Highly recommended. Four stars out of five.

I wasn't expecting much when I started watching this straight to TV kids film but was surprised about how good it was. The story of duplication has been done so many times but often turns out to be lackluster, not in this case as the film was funny and very entertaining. Andrew Lawrence did a great job and conveys both sides of himself well (he seems more and more like his brothers every time I see him). The supporting cast were also good including Mark L. Taylor (Honey I Shrunk The Kids, Innerspace & Arachnaphobia). Even the token bumbling bad guys were entertaining (a rare thing in these type of films). Although they did seem a bit too similar to Harry & Marv from Home Alone nearing the end. I definitely recommend this film to anybody really, it's better than you'd think!

When I first saw the movie, I was only going to watch it because I knew Tyler Hynes would be in it. But when I started watching it I liked the movie because it was funny, not just because he was in it.

The Other Me was good made for T.V. movie and much better than the Parent Trap (which might be due to the fact that Andrew Lawrence is a better actor than Linsey Lohan). The characters were good except maybe for the bad guys, they were kind of cheesy. Otherwise, it was cute, romantic, dramatic and of course funny!(especially the cafeteria dance scene). One of Disney Channels best, 7/10.

Rarely is a wholesome subject like this handled without being trite or boring. The literary device of the clone is up-to-date and shows that Will is capable of becoming more like Twoie. Of course, Twoie could have had the same effect on Will if he had actually been a cousin visiting from Belgium, but imagine how dull a movie that would be! Although the age group in the story is Jr High, Andy Lawrence is 12 and I think that age group would benefit more from seeing the movie.
