Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
pinkarray With the Olsen twins now as teenagers and are not looking so adorable anymore, they cannot seem to hold their own as teenagers, which probably explains why they didn't get to make many films around their teens.This film is about 14-year-old Chloe (Mary-Kate) who wants to win the international modern UN competition. Her 14-year-old twin sister is a whiny kid, who has fell in love with another teammate, Brian. These kids are just too mean, I know that they're in their teens, but they're still too whiny and bratty which makes for a typical teen character.I liked Mary-Kate and Ashley when they were little small kids but after they reached their pre-teens, they and their movies have been made full of clichés and predictable plots which make for boring movies. Even though their other movies were kind of predictable, too, such as "It Takes Two", they're still fun and funny.
Zit Picker "Winning London" is the story of a girl named Chloe who is the captain (?) of her high school Model UN club. After doing well in a tournament, her team is invited to the giant, international competition is London, England. However, when one of her team mates cannot attend, Chloe's twin sister Riley step in (mostly so she can hook up with some guy on the team).I've never really loved or hated the Olsen Twins and their movies. But, a little while ago, I got suckered into watching this on TV by a friend of mine. This is a relatively harmless, but bad movie. The plot is pretty typical, and unimaginative, with nothing very interesting, creative, or unique about it. It relies heavily upon cliché jokes, plot devices, and, of course, stereotypes. Also, there are times when you can see how low budget this movie is. When Riley and a her boy toy are crawling through the air ventilation, it's really tall and wide and looks like a crappy set.The acting is also pretty thin. The Olsens are blah, and really I felt nothing for either of their characters. They both seem rather unpleasant and whiny. One is willing to step over anyone and be a (for a lack of a better word) bitch just so she can win. The other is continually whining and making a big deal of how her crush isn't remembering her the way he should. The side characters also got on my nerves. That annoying kid with the camera (I forget his name) and the rather bland and boring fat girl. Even Jesse Spencer, who I rather like as an actor, wasn't that great. The accents were also pretty bad. Really, I found it sad to see the British people in the movie being portrayed as uptight posh individuals with accents that were garbled and couldn't be understood.But really, though I didn't like this movie, and there were a lot of things that bugged me about it, it wasn't really anything terrible. In fact it's pretty harmless and dull. I don't think that I will forever have the horrible images of "Winning London" emblazoned in my brain. Probably, in about a week, I'll forget all about it. Besides, I'm not the intended audience. It's good if you have younger girls, they'll be entertained. Also, if you're an Olsen twins fan, then of course you're going to love it. If you're anyone else, I say just skip it.
emeraldiceii See, I'm not one of those little girls who worships the ground that Mary-Kate and Ashley walk on. I actually do have some taste in movies. All of MK and A's movies are unrealistic, have no plot line, and nothing bad ever happens to them. But this one was the best out of them all I think. It was actually realistic. Take Our Lips Are Sealed...I don't know who wrote that, but whoever did, does not get out much. Winning London at least had a plot line (trying to win the UN model competition) and at least it could actually happen. The acting was fine. Mary-Kate and Ashley could just get annoying sometimes. But if you're a girl from ages 6-14 you'll probably watch it and enjoy it, and just say "Whatever." None of Dulstar's movies touch your heart, so don't expect much. It's not awful though, for a movie from MK and A.
talking_tree I can see that this films is mostly rated and commented by girls under 15. No one else could say one phrase to this rubbish. The movie was (as usual) higly boring, stiffly acted, predictable, like a big musicvideo. I simply can´t believe how anyone can write this unpleasant film and how can those two girls, Mary-Kate and Ashley with 14 years of acting experiense, want to act in a film with this kind of plot. It´s stupid. And why in the world can´t the eVeR hire other actors with good talents?? I had never seen those other actors and..well..they were newcomers with not so much talents, at least yet.I tried, I really tried to watch this movie from the beginning to the end but I couldn´t. I knew what was going to happen in it and the acting was just so hideous it wasn´t worth it! Maybe you´ll still watch it, despite my and other people´s words, that´s what I did because I was curious to see if the Olsen twins had finally grown up...but it isn´t worth it, trust me.
