The Parent Trap!!!

Hallie (Lindsay Lohan) and Annie (also Lindsay Lohan) are 2 very different girls that you would think have nothing in common. Hallie lives in California, Annie lives in England. Hallie is more laid back, Annie is more sophisticated. When both girls get sent to the same camp, trouble starts to brew. The 2 immediately clash and start pulling pranks on each other mercilessly. When one prank goes too far, they both get sent to the isolation cabin, forced to live in the same place. When they start spending more time together, they realize they had more in common than they thought. They were both born on the same day and they look exactly alike...that could only lead to...TWINS! Once they put the pieces together, they realize that they were seperated at birth, their mother, Elizabeth James (Natasha Richardson) took Annie back to England and their father, Nicholas Parker (Dennis Quaid) took Hallie back to California. When Hallie decides they should switch places so they can meet the parent they never met and try to get their parents back together, the girls get to work. They learn every detail about each other. When camp ends, they split. Annie goes with Nicholas and Hallie goes with Elizabeth. Once they step into the other girl's place, things start to get complicated. I don't want to give away any more secrets so I guess you'll just have to watch!

Cheaper by the Dozen 1 and 2!!!

These 2 hilarious movies will make you laugh until you cry, no joke :) They star Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt as 2 parents managing there 12 fun-loving and free spirited kids.
In the first movie, Tom Baker (Steve Martin) is offered a job to coach football at a big university, the entire family moves from the place they call home: Midland, Indiana to Chicago, Illinois. The 12 kids are completely against the idea and are miserable when they first get to Chicago. Meanwhile, Tom's wife, Kate Baker (Bonnie Hunt) is trying to publish a book about parenting. When Kate goes to New York to try to get her book published, Tom is left to manage his kids but does have a little help from the oldest Baker kid, Nora (Piper Perabo). Although this movie is quite hilarious, it also teaches you a little something about how to deal with family and change.

In Cheaper by the Dozen 2, the whole Baker family is back and changes have already been made before the movie even really kicks off. The 3rd oldest Baker, Lorraine (Hillary Duff) has just graduated from high school. Nora Baker has gotten married to Bud McNulty and she is pregnant. When Tom and Kate find an old photo album that Lorraine was looking through, they are reminded of the good times the family had an old vacation spot, Lake Winnetka. When the family decides to go back to the lake for vacation, they are reunited with their rival family, the Murtaughs. The father of the family, Jimmy Murtaugh (Eugene Levy) has had it out for Tom since they were kids. But of course, the Baker and Murtaugh kids get along wonderfully which creates conflict for Tom and Jimmy. When Jimmy challenges Tom to the Labor Day Cup, things start to spiral out of control.

The Clique!!!

This movie happens to be based off one of my favorite books ever. The Clique stars Elizabeth McLaughlin as Massie Block, Ellen Marlow as Claire Lyons, Samantha Boscarino as Alicia Rivera, Sophie Anna Everhard as Dylan Marvil and Bridgit Mendler as Kristen Gregory. When Claire's family moves to Westchester, New York, they move into the guest house on Massie's estate because their dads were old college friends. Their dads may have been friends, but Massie and Claire immediately clash. As soon as Massie tells the Pretty Committee (her friends), Alicia, Dylan and Kristen about Claire, the 4 of them are anything but welcoming to her. Massie uses every trick in the book to make Claire's life completely miserable.
Find out what happens in this funny and heartfelt movie about fitting in and staying in!
