Pretty much faultless - 5.9? How come?
by alan9972012-02-18
8/10

"I don't do IMDb reviews. I drop by all the time, and when I've just sen a movie, I often drop by with my prediction...and though I say so myself, I've got pretty good over the years. I guess 6.3, it's a 6.5; I guess 7.2, it's a 7.0. Just watched Twins for the first time in 20 years and came in with my prediction of 8.1 and what the...? 5.9? You have got to be kidding! Of its genre, Twins is damn near perfect. Great idea, brilliantly executed. An excellent script, with great one-liners and terrific plot twists along the way. And above all, one of the best buddy-twosome..."

💡 Did You Know?

Universal Pictures saw this movie as a risk and would only put up an $18 million budget, not enough to pay the two main stars and the director their normal fees. They decided to agree to 40% of the gross profits split between the three of them, and ended up making more than they would have made taking their fees upfront, as the film was a huge hit that took in $216 million worldwide.
