cooling_boy1 I really want to comment on previous comments. The comments that says that this movie is so very bad and that it is the worst they ever seen. They also says that the "Olsens" can't act at all and that they are the worst actresses in the entire world. For the first i actually can't understand how people can think so about the "twins" and for the second, if you think that then you really have to hate the "twins" and i really mean HATE! But people are different and all don't thinks the same so i can sometimes understand them that they think so but they then have to hate them as i said before. Because if you like them then you can't hate any of their movies. They are so cute and nice and act very well. Personally i think that the "twins" are very good at acting and doing their own movies because they usually not only plays in their movies they also are the producers and works a lot behind the camera and have a bog part in the making of their movies. They have their own opinions of what they think are good and bad in the script and if they don't something is correct or appropriate they usually change it in the script. So they make a lot of big decisions to make the movie to get even better and more fashion-forward because they always knows what's popular. So after all you can really say that most of their movies are their "own" movies. And this movie was no exception. A lot of the clothes and stuff they are wearing in the movie they have decide themselves. And that is real fashion. It's one special thing in this movie and that is that they are finally licensed to drive. That make the movie different from the other they have done because they can go to other places a long way from home without their parents and only enjoy the time with their friends and of course boys.They can feel a kind of liberty. And on top of all this they get their own car and they decides to drive to Salt Lake City where the Olympic games are at the time. And that become a real adventure for them and their friends, both problems and funny things happens almost all the time. A road trip that take a long time to forget about. A memory for life! These things make this movie so great and worth to see. A little bit different movie with the "twins" and that is rather exciting. Si finally i can recommend you to watch this and don't listen to the persons who thinks that this is the worst movie ever made on earth! They don't know what they are talking about and aren't "real" "Olsens" fan. But you don't need to be a fan to enjoy this movie because it is for all different kind of people. So hope you will enjoy as much as me! Have a great time in front of the TV!

blonde_ambition Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have been acting since they were nine months old. And you'd think that after over a decade, they might improved over the years, as most actors do. However, they are notorious for their atrocious acting skills, and awful movies. And as Olsen movies go, this one is by far the worst.Getting There is about a girl named Taylor (Ashley Olsen) who wants to go to the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. She could have gone alone, but no, she brings along her twin sister Kylie (Mary-Kate Olsen, after all, since when have the Olsens' done a movie without the other?), and a bunch of friends.Along the way they get into a load of "hilerious" mix ups as every attempt they make to get there fails. So it's basically a movie about these teens trying to find a way of "getting there".The movie is directed by Steve Purcell who, judging by this movie and his other works, must be the worst director in the world. Second to Ed Wood, though at least Ed Wood was actually entertaining.The camera shots are awful, the lighting is terrible, the acting is atrocious, and the plot is wafer thin. The dialogue is supposed to be funny but the ultra-crap catchphrases are cringe worthy. One word that gets really annoying? "Hype" They all say it like it's a really cool word, you watch in and think "OMG, these kids are SAD!" Ashley Olsen, as always, can be caught acting the entire time and must be the worlds most unnatural actress. Mary-Kate Olsen does her trademark complete overact, with an expression for every word and hands going everywhere. Billy Aaron Brown, as one of their friends, is just annoying, and the other cast are also just pretty irritating to watch.The one good thing about this movie? Actress Alexandra Picatto who plays Charley Simms, a girl the twins and their friends meet on their journey. Picatto is the one actress who actually deserves to be doing something better. She's natural in front of the camera, has screen presence, and can act. However, she may only have seemed good in contrast to the rest of the cast.You'll lose the will to live watching this movie. The best advice I can give you is to save yourself and steer clear!

Liby Caser Yes, this movie is extremely good. it is about Mary-kate and Ashley going on a road trip to see the winter Olympics. but a lot happens to them on the way to delay them. They learn that Getting there is half the fun. this movie is a typical MK and A movie. it is about teenage life and growing up. it is definitely one of there better movies as they are older and not so young like in Switching goals, passport to Paris and Billboard dad. if you are a boy them it is obvious that you are not going to like this film. Also if you are not a MK and A fan then yes it would be pretty pointless watching this. My compliments to MK and A. it is a very cool chick flic. 7/10

Devotchka Oh good grief, this movie plays like a tutorial on how not to make a film. First of all, it stars the disturbingly simian Olsen twins--both of them, of course, since their being twins is the only reason they've still got jobs--as 16 year old girls whose parents let them drive off to Utah with a few friends. Very realistic. The movie itself is filled with little song montages that resemble a low-budget MTV video--the shots become black-and-white, grainy, tinted, or weirdly angled at random. I can see the film editors sitting in front of a computer screen and saying, "Let's have a look at the old effects menu...we want to make sure we get every possible one in there." I don't know--it's not like this movie is supposed to be good, right?
