Review:

Perhaps this is me unknowingly donning my nostalgia goggles (I owned and loved every one of the Olsen Twins VHS tapes, whether Olsen & Olsen Mystery Agency or one of those awkward "party" movies), but DDTT is pretty okay. The plot is pretty cliche,the Olsen Twins were only ever capable of over-the-top hammy acting, the effects are terrible (even for 1993), and it's a made for TV movie so temper your expectations. I loved how ridiculous the plot is and they give the twins some pretty funny lines. In no way is this a good film and if you are only looking for auteur cinema, there is nothing here for you. DDTT is a goofy family movie that aired on ABC in '93 and it shows in every possible way. Maybe you have to have received your Olsen Twins inoculation sometime before Billboard Dad to appreciate them, but I love their brand of movie.

Whoops, looks like something went wrong.
