Shyer and Myers have also written other comedies together, including Father of the Bride, Father of the Bride II, Baby Boom, and Private Benjamin. The writing offers some new twists on the original, while keeping the spirit still active. The star of The Parent Trap is young Lindsay Lohan, who plays both of the twins. Lohan is excellent here, giving both twins distinct traits and gestures, even supplying a crack English accent to one of them. She also has the charisma and energy to entertain both younger viewers and adults, which is a rare trait in such a young actress.
Colors are bright with no errors, flesh tones are natural, and contrast is correct and consistent.
I didn't detect any compression errors, and the print is in near pristine condition. Audio Aside from the delightful Alan Silvestri score, audio is focused on dialogue, so most of the audio comes from the front channels. There are some times the surrounds kick in, but this material just doesn't call for much surround use. Dialogue sounds very good, with consistent volume, and the score sounds great as well. The only bonus feature is the theatrical trailer.
