New York Minute
Honors student Jane Ryan heads to Manhattan for a college-scholarship competition. Her rebellious twin Roxy tags along to crash a video shoot. But anything can happen – and does – in a romp involving a pursuing truant officer, a smuggler, hunkalicious guys, and the girls' realization that when the chips are down, a sister can be the best friend of all.

Roxy poses as Jane to give scholarship speech

The film rises from its lowest point during the early chip subplot to its peak with Roxy's improvised speech sequence.
New York Minute received harsh criticism for poor acting and predictable plotting, particularly in its opening act where multiple reviewers couldn't finish watching. However, the film found some redemption in its later comedic moments, especially the speech sequence, while maintaining steady mediocrity throughout most of its runtime as a formulaic but occasionally entertaining tween comedy.
