Summary: arnold shows his range here
Review: When I first saw this film, I did not like it, but somthing told me to watch it again, & the second time around I loved it, and have ever since, once you get past the shallow back story, this film will entertain you, it is without a doubt a film the whole family could enjoy. Arnold tried to do somthing different here and did & Danny DeVito reminds you why he is so fuuny & serious at the same time, a fun film for those who don't take it so seriously, my only complaint about this DVD is the Full Frame version, Universal should reconsider rereleasing a widescreen version, they have with their other films that came out at about the same time, why not this one? hopefully they will someday.

Summary: Great movie, So-So DVD
Review: While this is a very enjoyable movie, the DVD doesn't have that same amazing quality of most DVDs. Still better than VHS, the DVD is too red and too noisy. There are no extras, no 5.1 audio, and no widescreen.

Summary: Superb Comedy With Devito & Schwarzenegger !
Review: With this movie Arnold Schwarzenegger showed just how long those muscular legs are in terms of talent, range, and intelligence. This is a wry, wistful, and lovely movie that illustrates how easily Schwarzenegger could switch gears from the heavy action-oriented vehicles that had made him a star to more sentimental and purposeful films that intentionally made audiences both laugh and think. Indeed, hidden in all this well-choreographed slapstick is a self-deprecating kind of intelligent humor no one suspected the big guy to be capable of. Matched memorably with Danny Devito as the twin trapped with all the bad genetics even as Schwarzenegger ended up with the great genes and the life associated with it, the two work off each other in a movie so funny it is hard to try to describe. Every thing about the sequences works, from Arnie's naïve wonder with all the new experiences to his ear-phoned airplane accompaniment to "Yackety-Yak". Watching him do something as straightforward as walking down the street in suit coat and Bermuda shorts becomes an exercise in comic genius, with both the scriptwriters and director Ivan Reitman working overtime to create this comic masterpiece. Devito is in rare form, and we find ourselves empathizing with this guy who discovers he came from the throwaway sperm that was used to create his brother, the wunderkind. No wonder his life has been a virtual wallowing in the wastelands! Yet from the first meeting there seems to be an almost magical connection between the twin brothers, and Reitman has scrupulously given us a repertoire of little aspects or facets of each that lend credibility to this idea of a familial bond. This movie ensured Schwarzenegger's wider appeal to audiences beyond the action and sci-fi genre. Indeed, he repeated the comedic magic a few years later with "Kindergarten Cop", which while not as phenomenal a hit as was "Twins" was also an interesting diversion from what one would ordinarily come to expect from an Arnold epic. Also helping here is a strong supporting cast; including Kelly Preston as Arnie's love interest and Chloe Webb as Devito's enduring girl friend. This is a movie so full of rapid fire comic scenes such as the quick shot at Sylvester Stallone's self-conscious muscle-man pose poster for Rambo II that one recognizes the good-natured jibe at an action-star rival as all in good humor; Arnie and Sly were said to be at odds with each other at the time. And this is a movie the whole family can laugh at, and while there are some adult situations, there is not much blue language or objectionable behavior for a parent to worry about. I can highly recommend this film. Enjoy!

Summary: What a funny movie
Review: Wow twins is one of those movies you just got to laugh at. It tells the story of two completely differeent people who were mixed together in a lab and are twins. One Arnols Schwarzenegger a 200 pound muscle man from a tropical island. ANd Danny Devito a 100 pound short man with a bad attitude. Throughout the movie Arnold and Danny search to find their real mom and bond at the same time. There's a part where Arnold is forced to borrrow one of Danny's shirts. Though physically impossible due to the fact Arnold has a chest about 15 inches bigger than Danny's...but o well. Anyway Arnold's bicep is so big that it eventually rips the shirt!!! So they go to a grocery store to get him a new shirt. I was then introduced to how muscluar Arnold really was. He was in great shape. WOW WHAT A CHEST. Buy this movie.
