Sorry, this movie sucks

Good concept, poorly executed.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I first sore this as a child and loved it..Upon seeing this as a teen and adult I still love it... typical Arnie comedy movie.. Devito adds a lot as well...the plot is pretty simple but its a fun movie and has a bit of fun comedy along the worry..Arnie seems like a 10 year old who cant act but in whole its good one...

A physically perfect but innocent man (Arnold Schwarzenegger) goes in search of his long-lost twin brother (Danny DeVito), who is a short small-time crook.Looking back now (2015), it is interesting to think of this as the movie that made Arnold the most money. It has its high points and is pretty amusing, but is really very much a 1980s film. It is not the best Arnold film (perhaps not even top five) and certainly not the best Ivan Reitman picture.There is also the unusual subtext: a "perfect" man who comes out Aryan, and the leftovers form a short, swarthy man. Arnold even dyed his hair blonde for the film. By no means do I think Reitman intentionally was trying to make a Nazi reference, but it exists nonetheless.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, Kelly Preston, Chloe Webb, Bonnie Bartlett and Marshall Bell star in Ivan Reitman's 1988 comedy. Schwarzenegger plays Julius Benedict, a mild-mannered man who was raised on a tropical island. He learns he was separated at birth from twin brother, Vincent (DeVito) who became a womanizer & small-time crook. Soon, they meet and get to know each other learning they're complete opposites. They also learn about their mother, Mary Ann and search for her. Vincent also gets in over his head when he steals a Cadillac with a valuable engine in the trunk. Preston plays Marnie, Webb plays her sister, Linda who is Vincent's ex-girlfriend, Bell plays dangerous, delivery man, Webster and Bartlett plays Mary Ann, an artist who turns out to be Julius & Vincent's mother. I've always enjoyed this film, Arnold & Danny are great together and reunited 6 years after this in Reitman's other film, "Junior." I recommend this good comedy.

Julius Benedict (Arnold Schwarzenegger) have lived on a tropical island for his whole life. Then he feels he must go in search for his long lost twin Vincent (Danny DeVito) believing he's in trouble. Vincent is a small time criminal who owes money to the Klane brothers. He steals a car to pay off the debt only to discover it is worth a whole lot to other bad guys.Ivan Reitman is doing a fine job. Danny DeVito is doing a good slimebag. Arnold is actually good and funny as the naive Julius. But this one is sold as soon as you see the poster with DeVito leaning on Schwarzenegger. It doesn't really have a sharp edge. It's certainly not that daring. But it's a nice easy comedy. The worst thing to come out of this is a Reitman-Schwarzenegger reunion in 'Kindergarten Cop'.
