Trappola per genitori

Released to TV in 1986, "The Parent Trap II" is a sequel to the popular 1961 film. It's 25 years later and so the twin sisters, Sharon and Susan (both played by Hayley Mills) are in their late 30s. Sharon is single with a daughter in Florida while Susan is married and lives in California. Sharon's daughter (Carrie Kei Heim) teams up with her best friend (Bridgette Andersen) to match-up her mother with her friend's father (Tom Skerritt). Susan secretly flies in from California to help the girls in their 'parent trap.'

While this sequel is nowhere close to being as good as the original, it's a must-see for fans of the latter. After all, you get to see what Sharon and Susan look like 25 years later and what they're doing. The two girls are cute and amiable despite their well-intended, but deceptive antics. Because this is such a lesser movie than the original people tend to over-criticize it, but it's really not that bad. It's fun and continues the story, plus it doesn't overstay its welcome.

The movie runs 81 minutes and was shot in Tampa Florida.
