Twin Town Trailers

Jeremy and Julian Lewis, the "Lewis Twins", are two unruly brothers who terrorise the city of Swansea from the caravan park where they live with their family. When their father, Fatty, is injured while working on a roof for local kingpin Bryn Cartwright, they try in vain to claim compensation. Thus begins a campaign of terror, which local policemen Terry and Grayo are ill-equipped to prevent, involved as they are in a drugs deal with Cartwright.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Just wanted to say to the guy who thought this film had a bad ending, you clearly don't understand the essence of escalation. "Revenge is a dish best served cold" you will note is the opening lines of the Kill Bill Series, not a black comedy granted but a similar themed film. The whole point of revenge is to go one better than what was done to you, when someone blows up your entire family, albeit unintentionally then what better way to dish out the moment when said opponent in the battle of revenge meets his maker, than by carrying out your dead fathers wish. In my mind this is the ultimate black comedy, a biased decision I'm sure growing up on the welsh border and getting an extra tickle from the welsh eccentricities, but from a writing point of view, perfectly executed!

Darkly amusing (dark comedy if you're English) about a dodgy cop using spoof scenes from great and famous movies. Such scenes with the poodle reflects the horse in the godfather and the another scene is the Karaoke Bar and the movie Carrie. This is all set in Swansea about twins and dealing with the death of a family member. Much Love, madness and set in Wales. Wonderful, I watched about 5 times in 7 days. Got funnier and funnier, the script (See Summary) is outstanding. John Noakes and the scene with the Ice Cream van is most amusing and again if you are English the scene in bath where the twins are quizzing each other about football is also exceptional.WATCH WATCH AND WATCH AGAIN.

This was a great script in the way that it all fell together, it was very natural and generally unpredictable. There were lots of great characters and plenty of strange scenes. You HAVE to understand the lazy "welsh" accent in order to get a lot of the jokes. If you don't know nee 14 means nearly 14 then you might be confused in some parts. The more you understand of this movie's dialogue the more you will appreciate what a cool movie this is. It starts off one way and then becomes a completely different experience, and it's a fun ride the whole way through. I recommend it fully, this movie is unpredictable and weird, a real charmer if you kick back and let it unfold.

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!
