Perhaps I'm too old to like this movie. After watching I felt I should have got more. Most of the comedic scenes were unbelievable, and themes all girls being princesses is a little old and timeworn. Little kids get something out of this? I guess. Is it just me or have I seen this movie before? There were some positives though. The relations between the parents and the daughters were refreshingly sane. Selena's was grounded man and not a caricature, the relationship between Demi and her mom seemed passionate, although most of the passion was on Demi's side. Perhaps because this is a kid's movie the villain of the piece seemed ridiculous and unbelievable. The relationship between Selena and Demi seemed strained, like being best friends in real life hampered being at odds ends in the beginning of the movie. If this were a writing assignment I think I would give it back and say it needs more work.
