This is the best piece of cinema I have ever seen in my life... I am 19 years old...that's a lot of years. The movie was an excellent piece of art. This movie showed real artistic value. it was raw art that is so rare to come by these days, which is why it was made in 2001. Honestly, the fashion back then was amazing, and I appreciate how the Olsen twins were nice enough to educate us about the many different types of bathing suits one is able to wear. I have become a better person because I have watched this classic. This movie has a lot substance and shines in a league of it's own in the cinematic world and I should know, I'm a film major. Suspense came to a boiling point during the chase scene. Who knew people can run as if they're walking. I learned a new way to do the 400 in Track. Especially the running ability shown from Champlain. he is 100 years old and still running. It also shows the struggle of a teenage girl in love. Anything can happen when a cute enough boy is involved, especially your arrest. This movie has many morals and will be treasured, seen, and enjoyed for many millenniums to come! It is a shame that the dynamic duo is no longer in the movie producing business.P.S. The little girl, Keegan was wise beyond her years and I only wish that Jeremy would have realized that she was out of his league. Meghan Fox was also deliciously fun to hate as Brianna Wallace. These characters were so fully developed, Oscar material

This movie was so great. I can't find words that explains how really good it was. You have to see it to understand it. It is without hesitation one of the best movies they have ever made. The environment is beautiful and with two cute teens it becomes totally fantastic. When you have seen the movie you can't resist feeling glad. As always the "Olsens" acts very well and do their job successfully. They have really succeeded with this movie and if you don't think so you have to hate "the twins". If you are a Olsen- fan you ought to agree with me, isn't that true? It's worth watching! So if you haven't seen it then it's really time do that immediately!

Once again, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movie star in a movie in which they are playing themselves. The plot taken from their official site? "Mary-Kate and Ashley are spending Winter Break at the lavish Atlantis, Paradise Island resort in The Bahamas. Their parents bring them along, but that means they have to miss their school trip to Hawaii with all their friends.Determined to make the best of the situation, the girls decide there's only one thing to do: Unleash a tropical hurricane of off-the-hook action and head-over-heels tropical romance! But, amid the yachts, private jets, wave runners, scuba diving, motor scooters, horseback riding and moonlit strolls, Mary-Kate and Ashley stumble across an antiquities smuggling ring! Mary-Kate and Ashley discover the time of their lives on their... HOLIDAY IN THE SUN." Lets take a look at this...Note how it says "Mary-Kate and Ashley..." not "Madison and Alex" which is their character names. Once again, the Olsens play the only character they've ever played (and they STILL play it badly): themselves.The rest of the plot is basically telling you in lesser words how stupid, ridiculous, silly, irritating, and unrealistic the movies is. After all: "Mary-Kate and Ashley are spending Winter Break at the lavish Atlantis, Paradise Island resort in The Bahamas. Their parents bring them along, but that means they have to miss their school trip to Hawaii with all their friends." Thew movie starts with thee twins complaining that they have to go to the Bahamas because they wanted to go to Hawaii instead. Of course, they do go to the Bahamas - on a private jet and in a limo."Determined to make the best of the situation, the girls decide there's only one thing to do: Unleash a tropical hurricane of off-the-hook action and head-over-heels tropical romance!" And unleash a hurricane they do. They sneak out, go to parties til way past curfew, get arrested, and still their parents treat them like little angels. Wouldn't a normal parent introduce a little thing called discipline? And yes, once again the Olsen's' spend another movie running around and kissing boys who are about ten years older than them."But, amid the yachts, private jets, wave runners, scuba diving, motor scooters, horseback riding and moonlit strolls, Mary-Kate and Ashley stumble across an antiquities smuggling ring! Mary-Kate and Ashley discover the time of their lives on their... HOLIDAY IN THE SUN." Yep, once again the Olsens' spend another movie basically making a video memoir of the time they went water skiing, or swimming with dolphins, or going shopping. And this smuggling plot? Also ridiculous. From the moment they see an old man who has done nothing more than talk to one of their friends, they immediately label him as suspicious. And then comes the hilarious part. Hilerious because it's so stupid. The Olsens' chase this old man. And this guy is about 70 yet they can't keep up with him, and then this old guy does this slow-motion leap over a wall that's only about a foot high. And this is all supposed to be dramatic. The screen time of this smuggling ring? About two minutes.And the ending cuts to the the Olsens' playing themselves for real, and they come across as REALLY big headed.Thrown into this already completely stupid movie, is a "cute" kid who is annoying, a mum who you just want to slap.Unless you have a death wish, or you're planning a vacation to the Bahamas and want to see the scenery, don't watch this movie. There are plenty of better ways you could spend 90 minutes.

I'm a big fan of marykate and ashley olsen. I think that they are good actresses, i like the clothes they wear. I have got all the movies and i have seen all the t.v programs.My favourite movies are Holiday in the sun because alex and madison stewart are just lying on the beach,partying and hanging out with boys,just having fun and it just makes you want to get on a plane and go to the bahamas on holiday.And my other favourite is Getting there because taylor and kylie hunter get a car for there 16th birthday and they go on there first road trip with there friends. But it all goes wrong but in the end they get to utah and have there own olympic games.I hope to see more new movies soon..
