I rarely think a sequel is better than the first. But it was. Lohan was really good and Dennis Quaid was great. See it. You will not be disappointed.... Full review

They managed to put out some of the better family-style films of the 1990s.....If you can still look upon Lindsay Lohan as the sweet, innocent child, it's a nice family film.....As a young child, Lohan was a great little actress.....The Parent Trap" was one of the better live-action Disney family films of the 1990s, put together better than "George of the Jungle" and "101 Dalmatians..... ...
