And more Olsen twins time filling. You know, what I find the best, often only good reason to watch these movies is to marvel at how thoroughly they teach how not to make a movie. Like here, for instance, take the espresso-making scene. There are so many ways to make a clutzy teenage girl trying to get to grips with an espresso machine funny, y’know, see something like Lindsay Lohan with the washing machine in Just My Luck for instance; even Katie Holmes in Pieces of April with the oven. There are no end of sources of inspiration which a movie like this could quite easily just lift verbatim. It’s incredible how unfunny they manage to make such a scene here. Don’t even get me started on those accents. A smattering of points for showing so much of the city, they appear to have actually shot there, but still … eww. Must watch New York Minute (don’t read that review btw, it was evidently written before I succumbed to the cheese that is Paris) again early next year to restore my love for these girls.
