The t-shirt changes back to yellow when they are on the boat, but when they get to the police station for a second time he is back in green. All this is supposed to be the same day.

Not their greatest work

In my opinion this film is nothing more than a promotion for the new resort "Atlantis" in the Bahamas. I thought the film "Winning London" demonstrated some good acting skills and was considerably better than "Our Lips are Sealed". This film however was done very poorly. The movie has several abrupt editing cuts. The movie also has several black-and-white insert shots and well as slow motion shots. Both of these techniques were used way to much. There is also a lot of holes in the plot. For example there is a character in the movie that is very snobby and seems to have it in for the characters Alex (Ashley)and Madison(Mary-Kate). The last half of the movie makes no mention of this character at all. Overall this was a very poorly made movie and I dont recommend it at all. If your looking to see an Olsen Twin movie I recommend Winning London and/or Our Lips are Sealed.
