Sweet 16: Motorizadas e Habilitadas

This movie made me want to eat my own face. I'm always excited by how attractive the Olsen Twins are becoming, and the thought of them as young women in their twenties is more encouraging by the day, so where this movie has both of them getting their driver's license...well, I'm just happy to see time passing by so quickly. However, wow! Their movies are BAD!

Clearly, I'm not the ideal audience for this. Not rich, not a girl, not 13, no acute brain trauma that I'm aware of. So I shouldn't have rented this expecting highbrow entertainment, or a steamy seduction scene. Rather, I was treated to smoldering montages of youths enjoying winter sports, miscommunicating as per various modes of transportation, eating at a buffet. And, yes, the wonderful boy-clown, Toast! Good, funny Toast! Toast is a young man who is given the distinct comedic trademark of unintentionally wetting meals that people are excitedly preparing to eat. This happens on more than one occasion, and is surely the high point of the film. God love you, Toast!

I want to stop thinking about this film, it really is making me want to cry. Loud, racking sobs. Oh. Oh.

On another note, and a rather unexpected one: This soundtrack for this movie isn't half bad! Seriously! (I was rather hoping to hear "Fashion Junior High" though. That song rules!)

How was this movie different from their other movies. I have only seen Mary Kate and Ashley play one type of character ever. Wouldn't you think that they want to play a variety of characters? Plus the plot was barely even there, and that little amount of plot was pointless. This "movie" really sucked.

Okay, I admit, the Olsen twins are more for little kids then for serious movie buffs. I like their movies because they are clean and appropriate for younger children. These girls are better role models then Brittany Spears or Christina Aguliara. Getting There is one of my favorite movies that the Olsen Twins have made. I did notice lots of little goofs, but it is a B-list movie, so we can't expect perfection. I recommend this film for families that want to watch a wholesome film that everyone will enjoy. Anyone who is waiting for their driver's licence can relate too. I own it and have seen it about a billion times! Everyone makes fun of me because I like the Olsen Twins movies. At least I am not filling my mind with violence or sexual scenes.

Alright everybody, First of all as far as this movie goes, I thought it was one of the best so far. Mary-Kate and Ashley have really become even more beautiful and talented as you can see in this movie, and they are really good at what they do.

Now for all the people out there who watch their movies and complain, why? They aren't trying to make across the board best sellers or win academy awards! Their movies so far are targeted for a young audience, and honestly, what they are doing is great! Their movies have good morals, entertaining stories, and laughs for kids. They prove that kids don't need violence or inappropriate humor to be entertained and, maybe even learn something about life.

You can't look at movies like these and criticize the girls for making a boring story or being bad actresses, especially if you are older! I mean the girls know who their audience is and they make movies to entertain kids! SO if you are older and you can't understand this, why watch it and then complain?!?

These girls have an amazing future ahead of them, they could probably do anything they want with their acting futures. And I respect them for the quality children's entertainment they have done so far. "Getting There" IS a fun movie for kids and older poeple willing to suspend their obviously more mature tastes to enjoy simple entertainment.

I hated this movie! It was pointless! It had no plot and what little plot they had was extremely predictable. They always are the "heroes" in everything and act like everything is perfect. This is the stupidest movie!! Everything is corny and obviously written by a twelve year old!!
