The Parent Trap II

In this sequel to the 1961 classic, the now-adult Sharon McKendrick, who was one of the twins in the original film, is a divorced mother struggling to raise her spirited teenage daughter, Annie. When Annie meets her classmate Megan, she discovers that Megan's father is a charming widower. Determined to reunite her mother with him, Annie concocts a plan to swap places with her new friend, who happens to be the spitting image of her.

The Parent Trap II was a made-for-television sequel that did not achieve the same level of critical acclaim or cultural impact as its predecessor. While it aimed to recapture the charm of the original, it was generally seen as a weaker imitation, with some critics finding the plot predictable and the execution less inspired.

• A pale imitation of the beloved original film.

• Lacks the charm and wit that made the first 'Parent Trap' so memorable.

• Hayley Mills does her best to carry the film, but the plot is predictable.
