This is a fun film with a modern twist to the Mark Twain story, “The Prince and the Pauper”. The twin brothers and actors in the featured parts, Cole Sprouse and Dylan Sprouse, are a delight in their roles as Eddie Tudor and Tom Canty. Eddie is an established film star and Tom is a wannabe actor. When thrown into different lifestyles after Eddie dresses as Tom to get away from the movie set for awhile, the boys both learn some valuable lessons from the people they encounter. There are some interesting twists the film takes, including the history behind Tom’s adult friend, Miles (Vincent Spano), who is a former actor attempting to make peace with his past.
Unfortunately, there are two utterances of strong language in the film, which prevents us from awarding our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal to the picture.
