How sad is this?

Admirable film.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

What can i say. This was a Great film that i really enjoyed. Very funny.When i first watched this film they said its a WELSH TRAINSPOTTING A Welsh Trainspotting - No. Its completely different from Trainspotting and in my opinion, better and funnier. Don't get me wrong though, Trainspotting is still a great film but i prefer this. I don't know why really, i guess its because i'm Welsh (and proud of it). And i'm happy to see they made a decent WELSH film. Trust me, if your into foreign films that speak English or if you like British comedy films, then watch this. 10/10. Best line ever was:'And this glue is for my submarines and not for sticking up your f****** noses. And don't think i don't notice because i do. Buy your own f****** glue!'

I thought "Twin Town" was Brilliant! The actors chosen to play the "Lewis boys" were absolutely Fantastic Funny as Hell! It came on cable one night,and since I love other movies Rhys Ifans has been in I decided to watch.And It was great,not like these American "teeny-bopper" films they're trying to stuff down teenagers(me)throats!It was awesome.I think everyone should at least see it once,go rent it!

Twin Town has to be seen to be believed! It can make you laugh harder than you could ever imagine, mainly because the characters are likepeople that you know and love. It is a story of life in Swansea, South Wales... a new and different culture for some of us. The scenery is gorgeous, the accents are char- ming, and the script is clever and incredibly funny!!! Rhys Ifans and Llyr Evans (brothers in reality) are Jeremy and Julian Lewis, two boys who are out for revenge after their dad is injured at work and his boss refuses to compensate him. What follows is some of the crudest, most off-the-wall humor in the history of film. (Look for Fergie the poodle and the wiener-wagon scene --- I laughed out loud!) Suprisingly, there are some serious moments as well, and you may find yourself wiping away a tear. This is when you find your identification with the Boys, and the movie becomes yet even more wonderful. All in all, this is my favorite movie because of the wonderfully warm and funny cast and the never-say-die attitude of the Lewis brothers. Don't miss it!

Port Talbot, Wales. Dropout brothers Julian and Jeremy spend all their time bickering and joy riding. Meanwhile bent coppers Terry and Greyo are involved with local contractor Cartwright in a drugs deal. When the boy's father is injured doing a job for Cartwright he refuses them any compensation, leading to a series of cruel pranks by the boys that escalates into arson and murder.This film is clearly meant to cash in on the youf market that Trainspotting uncovered. However this is miles away from that – instead it plays like a caper film with the moral compass removed. The story doesn't have any `heroes' to speak off – instead we have two yobs who we are supposed to support. In Trainspotting the characters are unpleasant, but that's the point – we're not supposed to admire them. Here we're supposed to like the twins despite the fact that they are as nasty and as unpleasant as the `bad guys'. The story is poor – it has funny dialogue but with no likeable characters it's really hard to care about who dies – in fact the film never looks at the damage the death of innocents causes and it obviously doesn't care about the deaths.Despite the poor story and construction the actors are OK. Both Evans and Ifans have a good energy that gives some funny moments despite have characters you wouldn't help if you saw them lying in the street. Of the rest Dougray Scott has the best character – he's funny and cruel and a good comedy baddie – certainly better than in MI2.Overall it's a cruel little film. The yob energy and humour adds some appeal but the film lacks morals and just tries to get by by being loud and abusive.
