A reasonable facsimile of a screwball comedy, certifiable as harmless beyond the target audience of tween girls, to do with two pampered heiresses -- real-life sisters Hilary and Haylie Duff, equally charming, energetic, pretty, and, to the naked eye, wholesome -- who must toughen up when their cosmetics empire trembles from scandal. ("Our sales," announces the malaprop-prone CEO, "have plummeted precipitationally.") Martha Coolidge, a slumming director of some sensibility, takes equal pleasure, equally merciful, in the sisters' initial ditziness and newfound fortitude -- a soft-sell feminist, as temperate in approval as in reproof. Brent Spiner, Lukas Haas, Marcus Coloma, Maria Conchita Alonso, Anjelica Huston. (2006) — Duncan Shepherd
