Wow! Such a good movie.

Better Late Then Never

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Twins is one of those late 80s comedy classics with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny De Vito; directed by Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters). Ivan Reitman is masterful at bringing humor into this film without it becoming silly; along with providing an edgy under-toe throughout the film. For all those who complain Arnold can't act, they need to watch this film. While I'm not a huge fan of De Vito, he provides a cynical realism to the film along with some of the more humorous moments.Re-united after several decades of separation, twins Julius (Schwarzenegger) and Vincent (De Vito) Benedict set out to find the woman who was the "mother" in the lab experiment that created them...and unbeknownst to Julius, Vincent wants to deliver a stolen engine to a buyer in Texas....an engine that a ruthless hit man is looking to get back by any means necessary. While Schwarzenegger and De Vito were pretty funny (above average for Schwarzenegger and classic De Vito), the hit man was my favorite. He was not your stereotypical bad guy at the time and Marshall Bell brought out the "geek" in him. Sadly it's something many media have now tried to create a stereotype of... all attempts have failed.Overall rating: 8 out of 10.

Twins 2. Movie script: http://corporate-art-creations.tripod.com/twins2/ Beetroot McKinly. survived the gun shoots at his car but was sent to prison for his roll in the theft of the fuel injection system and the murder of the two rocket scientist. In prison he meets up with the twin brother of Webster. together they hatch up an idea to get revenge on Vincent and Julius. The Benedict Corporation is now a successful military contractor providing research and development of high tech computer systems. The company is located on the Island were Julius was raised, some 200 nautical miles south, south west of Fiji. The company is run by both sets of twin boys.. 2 of Vincents sons and the 2 from Julius.. The casting is hilarious, as One is tall and stocky built and the other is short and pudgy..each teaming up with their opposite cousin.. Beetroot hires Eddie Murphy.. who plays a mad scientist hired to steel the original Baby batter, used to produce the worlds first super human person. Eddie Murphy then uses it to create an Identical set of clones of Vincent and Julius. The idea is to kidnap them so they can be replaced by the clones..who will then take over the Benedict corporation. An amazing set of comical twist and turns occurs as the real Vincent and Julius try to escape their captives.. and save the world from their evil twins.. Look for a cameo by the McClain Boys.. who come to their rescue..at the request of Marnie and Linda.. This movie will have you laughing uncontrollably . script copy right.. by Eddie Vuittonet, in behalf of Madre Seca films.

If I had seen Twins before it has been years but you'd have to be under a rock to not know what it was. This movie starts out silly and you wonder why everyone likes it and that it starts to pull on your heart strings, you laugh at the silliest things, Arnold's Julius endears himself to you in a way only great movie characters can and same with Vince. The film is one of those movies that lives and breathes the feel of the 80's generation which also leaves you feeling nostalgic and when its all said and done you feel so good and you're smiling and you had a great time. How can anyone not love this movie? It is easy to see why it did so well, why its considered a cult comedy classic and why it launched an unlikely comedic career for Schwarzenegger. Of course the film isn't brilliant...it is what it is. It is meant to be fun and sweet and funny and it nails everything that it tries to be. If you go in expecting some sort of feat of cinematic brilliance then you will be disappointed. Although ironically it is sort of brilliant in the way that it has become so timeless and is so perfectly made for its genre.I love Arnold Schwarzenegger. His action is timeless but his comedy proves how big his personality and on screen charisma is. He is adorable, endearing and very nearly brilliant as the perfect physical specimen who is as naive as they come. He almost immediately makes you love him and its truly a great performance. Danny Devito was the perfect match for him. They are twins like you would not believe...and you won't believe it. Their chemistry together is near perfect and absolutely makes this film what it is. Devito's sleazy, low life Vince wins you over with his endearing quirky personality. Kelly Preston and Chloe Webb are Vince and Julius's love interests. Both are good and serve their purpose but they really don't stand out. They are there to support Devito and Schwarzenegger and they do exactly that. The rest of the cast are basically mobsters and villains to support the story. They are good but again you won't really see any stand out performances. But it doesn't matter because this film lives and breathes the twins and they are absolutely perfect!! Ivan Reitman is a legendary director in many respects. He has helmed many of the great cult comedy classics especially in the eighties. He just as this incredible knack for capturing the feel of the audience of that time period. You watch his films and they are everything that the eighties stood for. Twins has everything..action, comedy, heart...and I will even admit that I just about almost teared up at the end of the film. That is impressive for a comedy to make you feel so attached to characters that are zany and ridiculous. The entire concept of the movie is so outrageous (like a few of Reitman's pictures) but you never doubt it for a single minute. You are caught up in the story and you're having a great time!! This one is going in my permanent watch again and again rotation because it is just fun. If you want a throwback comedy or are in an eighties sort of mood...this one is an absolute must!! Bring on Triplets (chances are it will be atrocious but I need to see Julius and Vince again!!) 9/10

I will make this review short and sweet. I am a fan of Arnold and i have not liked many of his comedies or non-action films, but this one is surprisingly fun. Its not that this was an epic or super quoted comedy film but it is just warm-hearted. The reason why i loved the film is because Arnold's character Julius is just this perfect human being that you love. He is smart, strong, caring, loving, considerate polite amongst other quality traits. It is kinda sad that he gets exposed to the real world and all the scum in it. A good movie about 2 polar opposites who are brothers and come together to form what they had always wanted in life....a family. 9/10 stars.
