#3 Twins (1988)


Starring Danny Devito and Arnold Schwartzenegger, this movie is something I already know by heart and remember every line, having watched this movie over and over dozens of times when I first came out.

That being said I'm almost disqualified to rate this movie objectively, but hear me out.

Not only is this movie Arnold's first comedy, but it's also his last that works before the train wrecks to come. And we all love Schwartzenegger, in this comedy he is even more lovable than usual.

This is a perfect eighties comedy to me, it has a great chemistry between the lead actors, amazingly unlikely story line that still makes sense. It has palm trees, cars, babes, drama, suspension, laughs, conflicts and it delivers them all in style. What can I say, I love it and if if wasn't night already, I'd watch this one again.

The movie is directed by mr 80's himself, Ivan Reitman (Stripes, Ghostbusters) and features Kelly Preston, easily one of the top-5 hottest eighties chicks of all time.

And That scene with the Stallone poster. Pure comedy gold.

Superb!

Summary : DeVito paired up with Schwartzenegger in his first comedy where both are funny - and both for completely different reasons
Eighties-o-meter: 95%
