All things considered, both of the twins seem to have walked away from the car crash relatively fine for the most part. Which is nonsense given the severe injury we see that one of them sustained and with the movie taking place over the course of only 5 days. Really she should've be dead as a ruptured femoral artery would have bled out in mere minutes.

Especially with how long it must've been before help arrived (given the time it would've taken for one twin to undress the other, undress herself, and switch their outfits right down to a pair of hoop earrings all while the dying twin is unconscious).

Yet about 4 days after waking from a coma she is up and active, running around, fighting, and rock repelling with no pain, limp, or ache to speak of on any part of her body. And the other twin only had a little boo boo.

On another note...

After the comatose twin wakes up with amnesia and the daughter says to everybody in the room that she could prove which one is her mom, I naively thought the movie was going to do something logical like pose some questions. Maybe not to prove that the twin with no memories IS her mom, but to absolutely prove that the twin with all of her memories is definitely NOT her mom -- and thus proving the other one is by default.

She could've just quizzed her with stuff that her mother should know and her aunt wouldn't:

• Publicly verifiable things like the names of schools she's attended; teachers she had a hard time with; pediatrician; family trips; her dad's middle name or birthdate; her parent's anniversary; her mom's SSN...
• Or personal questions like any of her childhood firsts, or favorites...
• Or even throw her off with lies her real mom would call her out on like having tattoos or supposed secrets...
• Or she could simply just sing that one song that only she and her mom knew -- the same one that she heard her humming in her coma that clued her in in the first place

Some POSITIVES:

Charisma Carpenter is very pretty to look at (blessed with symmetrically defined features as if sculpted by an artist) and like Sarah Michelle Gellar will probably never really look her age (except maybe back when they were 20). And she does a really good job differentiating between the twins, with her performance at least. The hair and costume departments didn't even seem to try.

Also the idea of having the daughter discover the truth by hearing the comatose person subtly hum was a really great touch.

...

Well I guess that was it for the positives.

While some might compare this extraordinary film with the great Bette Davis movies, "A Stolen Life" and "Dead Ringer", this is a unique effort that stands on its own creative merits. With an absolutely stunning performance of a lifetime, Charisma Carpenter excels in a complex dual role as twin sisters with little affection for one another. Her portrayal is beautifully essayed and the subtle differences in the characters are expertly realized. It is her work in this film that makes this simply one of the best Twin Sister genre films ever produced. Artistically directed, excellently scripted, and outstandingly produced, Deadly Sibling Rivalry is a suspenseful, sometimes terrifying, and complex study of tremendous power.

Impress your girl by recommending that you stay in and watch this movie...Charisma Carpenter and Christa B. Allen...you will not need any BlueChew and your "all night stamina" will be a treat.
