Profile of Twins

Twins can be described as offbeat, humorous, and feel good. The plot revolves around twins, an odd couple, and tracking someone down. Its comic aspect comes from silly humor. Twins's main genre is comedy. In terms of style, it has a Hollywood tone and has a road movie structure. In approach, it is not serious and realistic. Twins is located in Los Angeles. It takes place in the 1980s. The movie has received attention for being a blockbuster and an award winner. Twins is well suited for a date night. Note that it involves strong sexual content, profanity, and violent content.

Summary of Twins

Now Vincent, an unscrupulous street hustler, ekes out a living in Los Angeles. Julius, raised by a scientist (Tony Jay), grows up humble, intelligent and strong, but very naive about the larger world. When Julius learns of his mother and brother, he heads to Los Angeles to find his family.

Schwarzenegger proves to be mildly amusing, but DeVito seems to be coasting on his past reputation as an audience pleaser. Full Review

Lovely comedy, lots of fun.

They are twin brothers, but that's the only thing they have in common. Still, this odd couple needs each other more than they thought. The combination of Schwarzenegger and De Vito is a winning one. I very much enjoyed their dynamics and... Read and rate it
