Tuchergson Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater
Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
amesmonde A brawny suited burglar and his equally muscular twin, a upstanding police officer, are forced to team up to bring down some diamond criminals.With the fashion, music, hairdos and Rambo III poster on display you'd swear director John Paragon's Double Trouble was made in the eighties (even though it was 1992). The cast feature plenty of familiar acting faces, surprisingly this B film has some good talent on display. This forgotten film features David Carrdine, James Doohan, Roddy McDowell and those two muscle bound twins from the Conan wannabe film Barbarians, I kid you not. McDowell has lot of fun shooting people and Doohan gets to Scotty rant while the twins get to wink at fine women, fight and shoot a lot. It's all as outlandish and retro un-PC as it sounds.To the twins David and Peter Paul's credit they are great fun throughout and thanks to some writing flukes including Jessie Venture impressions, sibling rivalry along with Paragon's clumsy setups and reverse fridge logic it's more enjoyable than it should be. If you love the 1980s cheese, this 90s film is a great example, think a second rate Twins mixed with Stop or My Mum will Shoot and let your mullet and crop top do the thinking, you should enjoy.
mipablito This was a great movie / comedy. I never followed wrestling, or knew of the barbarian brothers, but loved this movie. It was so funny when one of them quotes Darth Vader. Roddy Mcdowell plays such a delicious villain. Greedy and Evil. I can't believe he is gone (dies 6 years after this movie, from lung cancer). This is an entertaining, and a very feel-good movie. And, a family movie, with no vulgarity, or inappropriateness. I wonder what happened to the barbarian brothers? Also, takes place in LA.... nice to try to spot the places. Ten lines of text... they gotta be kidding. There is a verse in the Bible with 2 words.... Jesus wept.
zhoyt-1 One of the things that makes the Barbarian Brothers so great is their ability to do both action and comedy and pull both off superbly. This film is no exception to them being able to showcase their unique talents. This film also continues the tradition of them working with great co-stars. Tiny Lister, Richard Moll, Martin Mull (all in Think Big) and now Roddy Mcdowel and David Caradine! In the face of the Barbarian Brothers, most actors just seem to sink into the background, but you have to hand it to these legends to be able to hold their own on the screen and not be drowned out by the amazing screen presence that the Barbarians have. To touch quickly on the movie- Peter and David are two brothers who are on opposite sides of the law but who come together to take down a crooked businessman who's trying to rob the international diamond exchange. As usual Peter and David have GREAT chemistry and it is so fun seeing them play off of their characters differences. This movie really has it all: action, suspense, comedy, tragedy. What else could you want?Luckily for you fellow Barbarian fans, Encore has been showing this movie lately on both Encore and Encore Action! I've seen it three times so far, hopefully you can catch it and tape it like I did because we all know how hard it can be to track down original copies of Barbarian films. If you like movies, you will love Double Trouble. Don't miss it!
Seymour Asses Double Trouble might be the worst movie ever made. Double Troubles stars two washed up body builders. One is a cop the other is a criminal. Neither of them can act. The plot is a typical stupid "must beat the bad guy" plot. This movie is terrible. Avoid it at all costs.
