You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Greatest Parties


Starring:Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen
Studio: Warner Home Video
Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Three Mary-Kate & Ashley "You're Invited" videos hand-picked by fans make up one greatest-hits collection:

Birthday Party
The Olsens put on a big birthday celebration with lots of friends and make the viewer feel invited. Singing, games, presents, cake--it's all here. The focus is once again on the girls as celebrities (and therefore as products, like dolls), and that shtick can be a little wearing when so much of the show is concerned with underscoring their self-conscious cuteness. --Tom Keogh

Sleepover Party
The Olsen twins try their best to pull an all-nighter in this high-spirited, 25-minute slumber party episode. Mary-Kate and Ashley jumpstart the fun by encouraging their three perky guests to learn some new dance moves. Cue the MTV-style musical numbers; these girls just gotta sing! And they have a song for every activity, from playing video games, to making pizza (basically ordering a plain pie, then raiding the fridge for a variety of toppings), to scaring each other--and the boys--with spooky stories and makeup. Cute, tame entertainment for 4- to 7-year-olds who enjoy singing and dancing along. While kids 8 and older are much more likely to hold slumber parties, they might find the material too juvenile (sort of like Barney unmasked). --Liane Thomas

Mall Party
When Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen send you an invite to their Mall Party, maybe you'd better RSVP that you've got other plans. A credit card-thin plot drops the girls at the Mall of America, where they sing and dance their way through a slew of unmemorable but eminently hummable, bubblegum pop songs that live up to such no-frills names as "Meet You at the Mall" and "Food Court." Although this long half-hour is clearly trading on the fame of the TV twins of the past decade, the real star is that Minnesota mall, with its theme park-style rides and unending shopping opportunities. --Valerie J. Nelson

      Despite the glam shot of the now-teenage twins on the cover, this trio of parties is strictly from their preteen years. Following their trademark formula of minimal conversation and maximum singing and dancing, the pair party from the islands of Hawaii to the Isle of Manhattan. First up: the gals hit the beaches of Waikiki along with three of their friends to sing odes to sand, surf, and swimsuits. Then it's on to Lincoln Center where New York City Ballet dancer Eva Natanya (as Danielle) gives the girls--and two of their friends, of course--a private lesson, a practice in Central Park, and an up-close view of the troupe's performance. What does she get in return? Sage advice from the youngsters on conquering preperformance jitters. (They have worked steadily since they were toddlers, after all.) Finally, the girls melodiously reminisce about their ski vacation as they bake cookies for a Christmas celebration. A couple of boys crash the bash, Santa arrives undercover, and Clue the basset hound provides semi-comic relief. In between, the girls sing "Jingle Bells," "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," and some original tunes. The acting is painful, the singing is marginal, but the fun is good and clean, making for some safe downtime for children ages 3 and older. --Kimberly Heinrichs

        The Olsen twins are growing up, as they always have, right before our eyes. In the first half of this hourlong video, they're headed to a high school dance (christened Spring Dance.com--ugh!), which gives Ashley cause to fret about whether both she and boyfriend Rick will be chosen as King and Queen, and prompts Mary-Kate to ask out that cute boy, Jesse. It also gives the fashionably attired duo plenty of chances to sing their pop-lite ditties and white-girl rap in high school corridors and bathrooms. The second half harks back to their cute-as-a-button days in a series of music videos that begin with their first, "Brother for Sale," in which the Full House TV pixies try to unload their older sibling. The other nine songs include tuneful meditations on slumber parties, pizza, and summer outings to beaches, hotels, and naval shipyards. Despite their new maturity in the high school portion of the video, most Mary- Kate and Ashley fans will be females between 8 and 12. --Kimberly Heinrichs

        Mary-Kate, Ashley, and their friends are all psyched for the big school dance. Unfortunately, Mary-Kate doesn't have a date yet, and Ashley's nervous about her decision to run for Queen of the Dance.

          The Olsen twins' previous party compilation, You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Greatest Parties, featured videos handpicked by their fans. The Favorite Parties on this collection, however, were chosen by Mary-Kate and Ashley themselves. Each party features a different theme, two female friends, five songs (plus a little dancing) and outtakes at the end followed by their signature catch phrase, "It's a wrap!" Although they aren't the best singers, Mary-Kate and Ashley get the job done and always look like they're having a great time. Still, two to three songs per party theme should have been sufficient (and would have allowed for greater character and story development). The sequencing could also be better. Fashion Party (1999), which opens the compilation, is clearly the most recent as the twins are sporting makeup, blonde streaks in their newly straightened hair, and a more sophisticated dress sense. They look significantly older than in Costume Party and Campout, even though those tapes were released only a year before (1998). Younger fans, however, are likely to ignore such shortcomings in favor of the cool outfits, catchy music and, of course, the stars of the show: the adorable, relentlessly upbeat boy- and pizza-crazy Olsen twins. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
