TO GRANDMOTHER'S HOUSE WE GO (1992)
Twins Julie and Sarah decide to give their stressed out mom a break and go to their Grandmother's house for Christmas. So they stuff their backpacks and stow away on a city bus, beginning the adventure of a lifetime! The Olsen Twins are in their Full House bloom in this 89 minute made-for-TV movie with a great plot! This is a movie for the whole family to enjoy, so sit down, relax, and get ready for some fun the whole family will love!
This movie is great! I can watch it over and over again and never get bored of it! The twins are great in this movie, they do a great job working together. I have loved watching them grow up on TV's Full House, and 'To Grandmother's House We Go' captures them on home video. Mary-Kate and Ashley are super cute and adorable, and they play the roles perfectly! Its got a great moral and will warm your hearts.

HOW THE WEST WAS FUN (1994)
In this movie, the girls play Jessica and Susie, twins whose widowed dad takes them to a dude ranch where their mother played as a child. The ranch is in danger of closing down, and Jessica and Susie discover that the owner's son, Bart, is trying to sell it and build a theme park in its place. So the girls come up with a plan to save the ranch. 'How the West Was Fun' is funny, sweet and a lot of fun! Horses, nature, river rafting - lots of fun outdoorsy stuff!
Its not the best Olsen movie out there, but its high on my list! This movie is jam-packed with laughter, action, and more! All kids should like this, especially if they are major Olsen fans like I am! Mary-Kate and Ashley are both extremely talented, they don't hold back at all in their performances! I loved this video!

IT TAKES TWO (1995)
This movie is a variation of The Parent Trap. It stars the Olsen Twins as look-alikes who swap lives in order to find fresh solutions to problems with their adult caretakers. The fabulously wealthy girl named Alyssa (Ashley) has a father who is about to marry a horrible woman, whilst an orphan named Amanda (Mary-Kate), is about to lose her best friend, a social worker who supervises the orphanage. They meet by accident one summer and hatch a daring plan.
There are unexpected and surprising twists, and this movie is incredibly fun! The Olsens do a great job with the acting, and make the characters believable, its fun watching them play eachother. It is cute, funny and entertaining.
This movie is one of their greatest works, and deserves 2 thumbs up!!

BILLBOARD DAD (1998)
Its the Olsen Twins to the rescue again in their straight-to-video release Billboard Dad. The preteen queens plot a plan to find their widowed father a woman by planting an advertisement on a billboard over Sunset Blvd. Dad gets thousands of letters, but isnt impressed with the idea, finally agrees to go on 5 dates before giving up when he finally meets Ms. Right! The only problem, is that she is the mother of their arch enemy! Find out how the twins get themselves out of this one!
All of this just sets a stage for Mary-Kate and Ashley to do their own thing - they are way cool, fashionable, and very mature beyond their preteen years with their equally cool friends who have a drama of their own unfolding on the diving team.
This is such a good movie, and its very entertaining! People of all ages will enjoy it.

SWITCHING GOALS (1999)
Mary-Kate and Ashley play super identical twins with completely different personalities. Sam is sporty, bit of a tomboy, and star of the school soccer team. Emma is girly and very fashion-conscious. Their dad coaches an all boys soccer team, but when the team turns co-ed, Emma and Sam join up for it. Look for a switch when the girls decide they don't fit in right!
This movie revolves around soccer, cute clothes, and boys, and its really entertaining for preteen girls. The movies they make now are definitely more for girls of their own age range, but still good!

PASSPORT TO PARIS (1999)
Mary-Kate and Ashley jet off to Paris as Melanie and Ally, girls whose parents want them to know the world is more than shopping and a day at the mall. They stay with their grandfather and go under the supervision of a tight embassy employee where all the sightseeing they get to see is museums, museums, and more museums! During one of the tours, Mel and Ally meet two incredibly cute french boys, Jean and Michel, who show them the fun Paris that they were expecting!
Passport to Paris is by far one of the best Olsen Movies out there! The boys have shocking french accents, and should have had a little more attention for their roles, but the movie is still great!
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are wonderful actresses.
