Editorial Review:
Contains 3 "You've Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's" episodes: Mall Party, Birthday Party and Sleepover Party.
Description of You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Greatest Parties:
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
You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Greatest Parties Reviews:
GREAT FOR KIDS SLEEPOVERS 
2007-10-22 - IF YOU HAVE A DAUGHTER BETWEEN 7 AND 9 GET THIS DVD. ITS GREAT FOR SLEEPOVERS OR A RAINY DAY.
My girls love these dvd's
2007-08-01 - We had all the VHS tapes of these and decided to get the DVD since my two older daughter's aged six and four love watching them. Lots of fun with music and dress-up.
SO MUCH FUN!
2004-12-28 - Mary-Kate and Ashley's Greatest Parties contains Sleepover Party, Mall Party and Birthday Party. They're all really cool! =D Each episode include awesome songs and the theme-song, You're Invited. All the songs make you wanna stand up and dance and sing-a-long. If you're a fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley you can't miss this wonderful DVD! :D
I love this video!
2003-02-21 - Mary-Kate and Ashley at their best! The videos contained in this combo
are Mall Party, Birthday Party, and Sleepover Party. Sleepover Party is the first party movie the twins ever made. The songs are cute and classic, like "Video Monster" and "Gimmie Pizza". Birthday Party is cute, too. It has neat songs like "Moon Bounce Madness" and "Pool Party".
Mall Party is recent. The songs featured in this one include "When I Grow Up" and "Decisions, Decisions".
One Time Movie 
2002-01-07 - This movie is a money-saver because it combines 3 movies on one tape. In the first movie, the girls have a few friends over for a sleepover party and they dance, giggle and have a pillow fight. True girl form but kinda boring. The second movie takes you along with the girls to Six Flags amusement park for their birthday. You get to watch the thrills and spills while they scream at the top of their lungs. The third movie (and the main reason I bought this) was the highlight for me. You go along with Mary-Kate and Ashley to the Mall of America where they shop, shop, shop, ride bumper cars, ride a roller coaster, and put on a mini fashion show. What child(of any age) could resist the fun of a day at that mall. However, the endless drone of "we're going to the mall" that they sang over and over made a few family members give up on the movie and leave. Yes, I'd buy it again because I like Mary-Kate and Ashley but if you're looking for something to occupy more than a few hrs, this is not the one!!! I don't think you could enjoy it after the first time.
