I really love that the dad didn’t notice that his daughters changed places but in less than 48 hours the nanny was like “You didn’t eat your corn bread and chili, who are you b*tch?”

Lindsay Lohan deserved an oscar for parents trap for having a whole generation believe she was a twin cause she acted so well as two different characters

No matter how cute this film is and is supposed to be, I can't get over how messed up it is that they just split up and said you get one and I get one of our kids.

There's just a certain charm that live action 90s kids/family movies have .

It didn't occur to me as a child, but watching this as an adult made me realize that this is like... cruel...??? Splitting up identical twins and not telling them that they have a sister??? There is literally documentation about how this traumatizes siblings in foster care wtf

Fun fact: Meredith's mother (Aunt Vicky Blake) was the original "Meredith" in the '61 original version. Except in that film, her name was Vicky Robinson. So she technically could be the same character? Robinson could just be her maiden name. Like mother, like daughter.

Fun fact (ish): the reason British is coming to the US for a summer camp is because we kinda don't have those here, mainly because our weather sucks

Lindsay was THE moment in the 90s. A shame what she went through in hollywood.

In case anyone else wanted a translation of the french: But you're kidding, I hope. Meredith is not the girl for you. But it's not possible, I'm dreaming. What...

BRO there was a time in my childhood I'd watch this at LEAST once a month.

that necklace with that top is stunning! also let's be real, the parents are the main villain in this film. Meredith was a pill, we all know this but at least she didn't treat twins are completely interchangeable, abandon one and lie to other for 11 years all because they weren't mature enough to deal with each other's existence

Lindsay Lohan deserved awards, I thought she was a fucking twin

I’ll be 26 within half a year so I need to start my plot to marry a millionaire, send his daughter to boarding school, and avoid any surprise twins and lizards

I love it but this movie genuinely trips me out. Like these parents genuinely agreed to never talk to one of their children for life. And when they met them they still wanted to go back to that agreement. Like ????

"this whole thing could have been solved with a little communication" that can be said for literally every movie ever 😂 👍

Everytime I watch this I can't help but say R.I.P to Natasha who plays the mom and Ronnie who plays the grandfather

The woman who plays Elizabeth, the mom, died in 2009 after a skiing accident😭 the end scene where Halle says they don’t want to lose them again makes me tear up every time since she passed

Fun Fact: Meredith's and Chessie's actresses are BFFs, in real life!🥰

Fun fact: When they were at camp in Maine they were actually closer to London than California.

I love how chessy knew that Annie wasn’t Hal from the very beginning. I also loved her reaction more than both of the parents learning the truth. So touching. 😊

Both movies are actually based on a German Children’s book and it goes into more detail about why the parents split up in it and makes more sense

Holy crap I did NOT realize that actress was Janice from Friends until you said that... I really need to rewatch this movie lol

This movie contains possibly my favorite scene in cinema as a whole, when Chessey realizes that she's the twin and the dad walks in right then. It's the most dramatic irony I've ever seen and I love it so much

Every time I told Californians I lived in New York, they all assumed I meant the city. I lived in the Bay Area for a year and every single one assumed that. One even called me a liar cause I don't "have a New York accent."

RIP to Natasha Richardson 😢 Also fun fact: Back in the day when I did competitive dance, Elaine Hendrix (Meredith) was one of the judges for a National competition that our studio competed in back in Vegas . She was really nice in person and I thought she was going to be mean because of the movie 😂 Even one of Britney Spears’ dancers was a judge and I recognized him from the Oops I Did It Again video. He even autographed my program. This was a great weekend for 10-year old me 😂

I was soooooooooo devastated when Natasha Richardson passed away. This movie was a part of my childhood.💐⛷😭 This film endeared her to me.

I vaguely remember Chinese-influenced clothing being an US fashion trend in the 90s. Not sure why, but yeah, I guess it was a thing.

This and _It Takes Two_ were one of my MOST borrowed movies when I was kid. Though the ear piercing scene scared me away from piercing my lobes to the DAY! (Though cartilage piercings are okay? For some reason?) But yeah, parents taking a twin/leaving a twin behind then never telling the other kid about them, is not unheard of- speaking about people in my own life. It seems like such a cruel premise for a such a lighthearted comedy

The Chinese dress was a 90s thing. I had really wanted one, even before the movie came out. So many memories with this one

the parent trap was my fave childhood movie, very happy to see that you’re doing a commentary on it :)

The aunt is my favorite character. She has that calm chaotic energy

Parent Trap is awesome and Lindsey Lohan was great even in Mean Girls

I remember as a kid thinking that Meredith was the ultimate villain, but now that I'm about her age, I can kinda relate to her. She just wants to marry a rich handsome guy and his kids are getting in the way lol (though one cannot ignore her terrible qualities)

“They are giving me Fred and George Weasley vibes. And they are ginger” As a huge Harry Potter fan, I am shocked I never made that distinction. Now that you mention it, these four would make excellent friends. Oh the mischief they would make. Filch would live in horror.

I was honestly mind blown when I found out Lindsay Lohan wasn't actually a twin. Queen really had me fooled- 😔✋

This movie was my favourite as a child and it is still one of my favourites.

I always wondered how a group of seven years old girls can LIFTED huge beds and put them on a roof. It's still a mystery today X) I agree that the American twin is a bully and the British one is nice and elegant. Both are good at fencing though and playing tricks on their parents.

The Reunion scenes brings a tear to my eye seeing the girls so happy seeing their respected parents

My mom tells me every time she goes on her travels, whenever she tells people she’s from Massachusetts, they automatically assume Boston. We actually live an hour and a half outside of Boston. It’s happened so many times though, Mom just stops correcting them and rolls with it.

Although it's pretty cringy now, the Chinese dress was a 'trend' back then it was considered a party/cocktail dress, and very much how they do now, give the same style and trends in miniture form for kids. They really didn't care for cultural appropriation

Wait, I've never seen a cut of this movie where they actually show the needle going through the ear before. The TV version cut almost the whole scene, except for Hallie saying, "Trust me, this is not a big deal" and then straight to the outside shot with the screaming. My DVD has the full scene but you just have a close up of Hallie and see her arm gesture and then cut to Annie's face screaming.

I watched this film so many times as a child that I knew Jessie's realization scene word for word. As a adult, this film always makes me tear up a little, not just for naustalgic reasons, but because of the passing of Natasha Richardson. Gone far too soon :'(

I wish I had gone to such a cool camp. my "camp" was essentially an urban summer daycare down the block from my house where I got locked in a room with kids my age until our parents picked us up. SO MANY CARDGAMES, so much boredom. I had a stay at home parent too, so I think they were just tricked by the word "camp" and assumed some magically woodland wonderland would appear in the parking lot when they left.

As a kid first watching this, it didn't dawn on me how messed up the twin/splitting up thing was. But I remember my parents commenting to each other as we watched it, "Isn't it weird they just split up their twins like that and never wanted to know how their other kid was doing? I sure would. That's my kid!" Funny how we only pick up on these things once we're older. 😂

For some weird reason when I was younger I thought the actress for Annie’s and Hallie’s mom was princess Diana-

Hollywood put Lindsay through the ringer. Hope she's alright.

HUGE crush on Lindsay Lohan as a kid. Huge, massive. We're almost the same age and she turned out gorgeous as an adult and I followed her career after this film debuted, even her music career. The parts of this film that stuck with me most were actually the bits where the kids reveal who they are to their newly discovered parents...especially Chessy just losing it when she realizes who Annie is. If it were me, that would have been a kick in the teeth, but Lisa Ann Walter sells it wonderfully. Honestly I thought we were robbed of the reaction of Dennis Quaid finding out that Hallie was the one who came home to see him; the man has drama chops, the reveal would have been emotional, or more so than it was here. The wine bottle scene actually stuck with me most...can you imagine that? You are so rich, so well-connected and so heartbroken over the end of your marriage that you BUY OUT an entire bottling of one wine varietal? Even if that was a micro-harvested single vat of wine, that could run you into the thousands if not HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars. It HAS to be cheaper to simply say "I was wrong, we can make this work, take me back." Because of that and few other things, this film has a bit of a disconnect with me as an adult...this is 'First World Problems' the movie, where the concept of horseback ridding through vineyards, shopping till you drop at Harrods, private boat dinners, traveling from London to San Francisco at a moments notice, the hired help joins you on your trip and you end up getting married on the QE2...TWICE...is no problem! O! 90s economy, take me back! I'll never stray again! Yeah but seriously WTF happened to Lohan? Everything was coming up roses and then BOOM, her entire career seemed to implode. Real shame, too. :-( (And no, I couldn't marry for money. I'm a wild animal that might allow himself to be tamed...but I will never be a pet. Too much of a power imbalance. And while I don't have any twins, I do enjoy camping. Just saying. ^_^. )

I loved this as a kid. Very much a sleepover movie. The alternative version of the movie title could very well be called “everyone needs to go to therapy: the movie”

You should watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit! It’s an amazing movie technically and just a great watching experience!

The Parent Trap is one of my favourite films! The comfort and nostalgia 😭❤️ I used to watch it religiously as a kid so I'm glad you enjoyed it now as an adult.

ITS CRAZY HOW YOUVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE, childhood classic

The parent trap is so well paced!

RIP Natasha Richardson you were so beautiful and such a beautiful soul 💜

i thought my whole childhood that she had a twin n got heartbroken when i found out she didn't

When I was little, I was truly convinced the mom was Princess Diana

anime & Asian aesthetics were big in the 90s - everyone was wearing Chinese & Japanese imagery & symbols on their clothes & jewelry, as well as chopsticks in their hair. it was a weird time.

This is a good start for getting out of the Disney animated hole. Another movie I’d recommend is Hook. It stars Robin Williams as a grown up Peter Pan who forget all about Neverland and returns there. Also there’s Dustin Hoffman playing Hook so lots of fun!

The Brazilian dub is a gem. Meredith is so over the top, makes it much more fun.

Can we talk about that scene when the girl in the tie dye pulled out the duffle and Lindsay's character was just like " thats my kind of women "

The old lady who says Hello pet! Is the original woman who plays Vicki (Meredith) in the 60's version of the parent trap

This is one of those movies that I can recite line for line because of how much I watched it as a kid.

I was obsessed with the original parent trap(1969) with Hailey Mills and the sequels 2-3-honeymoon in Hawaii when this one came out I was 9 and made sure to be extra well behaved and begged my mom to get it for me the day it came out then watched it 1000x I love that the girlfriend in the original (Vicki) played Meredith mom (Vicki)

In all my 22 years of life I’ve NEVER heard anyone in media mention Napa. I was born and raised in Napa and I’ve grown up around vineyards and wine and everything grapes since my dad worked in vineyards so this kinda a made me real happy

Parent trap is just an american adaptation of a german novel by Erich Kästner called "Das doppelte Lottchen" (or Lottie and Lisa in english) from the 1940s. Btw "The NeverEnding Story" was also based on a german novel "Die unendliche Geschichte" by Michael Ende, who was actually against the release of the movie.

I wanted a secret twin so bad after watching this movie as a kid

Some things from this movie fused into my speech tendencies from watching it so much as a kid. Drunk mom's "upthairs" and "hand me my Evian" and I don't know why. Also, that colourful top from your cutaway moment with peanut butter and oreos is AMAZING omg

Fun fact: the woman who played aunt Vicky in this movie. Played the villain in the original and her name was Vicky

If you did full length versions on patreon I would be on that shit so fast. :) Also surprised nobody mentioned that Meredith's mother Vicky is actually the actress that played Vicky in the original. Possibly the same Vicky even.

Also girl, you can SING! wow

I love how their camp punishment was to get to stay in their own private cabin 😂

Fun fact, the actress playing Meredith's mom originally played that character in the original version, she even says I'm Vicky, the exact same way.

Fun Piece of Trivia: The Boy at Camp Walden is played by Lindsay Lohan's brother, Michael "MJ" Lohan Jr. I do recommend The Parent Trap 1 (original) and its other sequels 2/II, 3/III and 4/IV: Hawaiian Honeymoon. And yes, it is true that Joanna Barnes / Vicky is in the first one also. This film is technically a 5th film, according to Disney canon. (Although works as a stand alone so well, but the previous sequels could also be movies by themselves perfectly fine). - Oh, and I love your reactions so far by the way, Sophia! You're one of those reactors who's actually a natural at this! I love your authenticity. It's refreshing and you seem super dope.

Another awesome classic! Lindsay did a phenomenal job of adding so much depth to both characters. Thanks for sharing your reaction! Also RIP Natasha Richardson 😔

I never watched this before!! Excited 🙌🏾

The cabin friend with the brown hair and freckles that you thought was Alison Stoner was in one of Mary Kate and Ashley’s You’re Invited video series episodes it was the iconic sleepover one that also featured a very young Fi from So Weird

Going to camp in the summer or during spring was a thing back when I was a kid in the 90's also Lindsey is older then me and I'm 40. In the beginning of the movie it was a flash back to what happen between the parents when they went on a cruise. They got married and got divorced in 2 years. The twins was conceived the second year and that's when the split the twins up then didn't spend any time together except for in the womb

OMG I LOVE THE PARENT TRAP!!! ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES EVER!!! I enjoyed this sm!!

Ahhhh, I love this movie! one of my favourites growing up Who else had the deception of discovering that neither Lindsey Lohan or Dove Cameron had twins?

I cried with every reunion the first time I watched this as an adult. It hits so different

Movie Trivia: The woman playing Meredith's mother (Vicki) is the woman who played the Meredith character in the original film.

Honestly Meredith at 26 getting a rich guy like that. I can respect that even if she's all about money. 😅

I went to summer camp and there were a couple of kids who weren't Canadian. There was three girls from Paris, a bunch from the states, a guy from Australia and another from London. My brother went to another camp and there were tons of kids from different places. So that part in the movie is not that surprising.

this movie is based on the book by the famous German author Erich Kästner. he once said: "only if you stay a child at heart you are human." I love that mindset and try to live by it.

Around 4:30 mark, my Vietnamese mom was different. She allowed me to go to a church summer camp (I think it lasted around 5 days to a week.) but living with my Vietnamese grandparents was a whole different story. No sleepovers. It took me a long time for me to convince to let me go on a trip for my club in another state for 3-4 days. I never went on my senior trip which was to Disneyland or Disney World (I can’t remember) and I never went to senior prom either 😂 I went once to a soccer game at night but it was for extra credit for Spanish class 😂

another film i think you would love to watch is twitches an twitches too they both have the Mowry twins in it

Sophia Phan Very good reaction. Watching those clips just made me wanna pop in my DVD copy. I could watch that movie forever and never get bored. Soooo great a family movie it is. It has aged like fine wine. Keep up the good work.

I cannot believe Meredith was 26!!! I’m literally less than 2 yrs away now! Like wth. This was a comfortable movie for when I was younger but watching it back now, there are a couple of plot holes that I never questioned back then. The biggest one being how the heck Annie’s mom found out about the camp ALL THE WAY IN LONDON and sent her there at eleven. Okay fine… maybe I’ve heard of wealthy ppl sending their kids away to far off places before, but even still.

There was a point in my life where i would watch this movie literally like twice a week lmao i've pretty much got it memorized at this point🙊 so glad you reacted to it!

While I would agree it looks like any other summer camp, my guess is it's an exclusive summer camp, since both twins are from well off families, dad owns a wine vineyard. Mom designs wedding dresses

I know and watched this movie's German version, as this is an "adaption" of Erich Kästner's "Das doppelte Lottchen." For one who read the book and watched the movie, the German one has a very special place in my heart, but this one also is really beautiful.

For me this was *THE* family movie. My dad said the first time he saw it on basic cable, the mother/daughter reunion scene got him teary-eyed. We had the VHS, so I've been watching this since I was like five.

I was obsessed with this movie as a kid. The 90s live action family movies were my everything (lowkey still are).

i loved the original parent trap a lot more- funny enough. hayley mills was my first girl crush 😳 especially with the short hair

I clicked on this video because I read the title and thought “huh, Merideth was always my favorite character “ 🔥💗

The scene where they're all saying goodbye in the rain, and Nat King Cole, "Everytime We Say Goodbye" is playing, I love that scene. Me being extra asf, whenever my twin sis and me say goodbye, I start playing this song 😂😂

I’d definitely recommend watching the older version too! It’s very nostalgic as well and it’s so fun to compare the two! 🥰

For some reason I always thought of them at camp and when they switched as part one, and then them reconnecting and the camping trip as like the second part 😂

"Why did you stand up?!" Because comedy, lol! FOR THE BIT!!! ❤

For me, growing up with divorced parents, the meeting the other parent scene always makes me cry. I can't remember what it's like to have a mom and dad together that love each other. My mom showed me wedding pictures of her and my dad. And That is the one picture where they actually looked like they were in love. I was 6 when they separated.

The original Parent Trap with Hailey Mills was like my favourite movie growing up.
