One of my all time favorites.

Best movie ever!

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Perhaps the epitome of 1990s-era cheese, DOUBLE TROUBLE is another vehicle for the twin brothers whose claim to fame was appearing in the Deodato movie THE BARBARIANS. This one sees Peter and David Paul appearing in a contemporary cop thriller in which the brothers are from the different sides of the tracks but still end up teaming up to battle some bad guys. It's a cheese fest for sure, with laughable action scenes and incredibly wooden performances from the two stars; overall it feels like nothing more than a cheap cash-in of the Van Damme flick DOUBLE IMPACT. Old man Roddy McDowall plays the baddie and David Carradine shows up for no good reason; you'll only enjoy this if you have a huge tolerance for cheese.

sure it has some witty humor. some people seem to compare every movie with Oscar winning films. aesthetic distance....use it. its a great film in my view, but i say so because it is what it is. its not chock full of media hyped stars that line all the tabloids of your grocery store. However, on the level of just a relaxing, funny movie, goofy comedy... it shines through. This is how the majority of barbarian bros movies are. Take it like British comedy. shows like Monty Python are over overlooked for their style of dry humor in the states. however being that it involves you to think a bit, no wonder. This movie however isn't required much thought, but is reminiscent of the three stooges type of comedy. so take it how it is and don't come to the flick with expectations.

I gave this movie a 3 (out of 10) and in retrospect, that may have been a mistake. Though it does have a huge so-bad-its-good factor, I feel guilty about elevating it above it's 2.7 rating and possibly leading anyone astray. Please allow me to plead my case.This movie has it all. Twin behemoth body builder leads (David and Peter Paul), has been stars, really bad acting, guns with limitless ammo, a Trans Am and best of all, two of the most awe inspiring mullets in cinema history. Fantastic dated wardrobe, too, that makes M.C. Hammer look like a conservative Baptist minister... What? Wait a minute, strike that. Check out the mid-riff revealing sweatshirt that David Paul wears essentially through out the entire film. Little did poor David know that in just 8 short years they would have an entirely new name for them, they're called GIRL shirts. How can you not enjoy watching that?The first thing, however, that will catch your eye with this 90's classic is the acting of the Paul Brothers. Not that it's bad, but actually the lack there of. Anyone can act bad, (I.E.) Lou Ferrigno, Vanna White, Al Pacino (recently). Over acting is an instinctual occurrence. But the Paul's do something quite uncommon. They are comfortable just being themselves, albeit big dumb 'roided out gym whores who can't act. I imagine this is the point of their thespian endeavor where they finally got in touch with their inner voices. Unfortunately that voice has the pacing of a old fat bear. It seems as if they are constantly contemplating what awaits them in their trailer at the end of each set up, whether it be food, women or a new set of chrome 120 lb. dumb bells, but certainly none of it seems phony. I actually believe they are going to go back to their dressing rooms to consume protein shakes. I loved this film.

Just how bad off were such talents as Roddy MacDowall, Troy Donahue, Bill Mumy, Lewis Arquette, and David Carradine that they decided that Double Trouble was the movie to be in? Were all the parts taken up in a Munster's tv movie?This disgraceful film I caught one night while flipping around on television. After the revelation came that David Paul was not wearing a weight lifters belt but a midriff, my skin turned a color of green that Martha Stewart is sampling for her new paint collection. With such winning quotes as, "Where it IS!", I don't believe even James "Scotty" Doohan is putting this on his repitoire.A true testament that if you try hard enough in Hollywood, you too can have your own movie...the Barbarian Brothers had three or four. Hope springs eternal.
