Synopsis

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.

Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
steven jones This is one of my favourite all time films, it is funny, irreverent, unexpected, gritty, real in a surreal way and very very funny. Maybe not everyone got it.. maybe not everyone has been to Wales.. but it captures it so accurately, in a comic book yet real way. It is full of tender moments as well as being brutal and immoral. So many jokes, so many visual gags, and so many really warm and well imagined characters. It is two fingers up to Hollywood, to formulaic movies.. it is in a whole new genre of it own.From the very first scene to its finale it is rich in entertainment, shock, surprise, humour and emotion. This is such a good film... I love it!
jubilee77 Whereas the two cities in the Central Lowlands of Scotland had Trainspotting, then Wales's second city of Swansea had Twin Town. Despite looking quite promising with the locals, this film in fact fails to achieve all expectations of Trainspotting and reviews were patchy that in some cases, the local cinema goers around area where it was filmed claim it wasn't good mainly because it contained too much bad language. I was expecting them to be wrong at first but then I admit that they were right. If Trainspotting has considerable use of strong language with a cert 18, then Twin Town is in fact far more excessive in swearing and in one occasion the language is sometimes poorly overused together with a rather poor plot and therefore making it a bit of a dud film. Much of the younger local viewers love Twin Town and pompously claim it to be a classic and as it is known that in the 1990s, any particular area where the film was made had a high rate of car crime.
trystan-jones-1 During my tenure as chief projectionist of the Commodore Cinema, Aberystwyth, the only film to have received a standing ovation on more than one night for a week's screening. It's a university town so we have a good mix of local punters, students and holiday people. I rest my case.The nineties was, on the whole, a good decade for cinema I think. All we seem to have had since then is a load of cgi filled soulless film equivalent of a fast food outlet (Hancock?). Maybe it's just me getting older.I checked out the "hated it" rating for Twin Town tonight, and was pleasantly surprised to see only two negative reviews receiving two stars or less. Bloody hell. Some bugger's just nicked my car..............
Weazel353 I thought "Twin Town" was Brilliant! The actors chosen to play the "Lewis boys" were absolutely Fantastic Funny as Hell! It came on cable one night,and since I love other movies Rhys Ifans has been in I decided to watch.And It was great,not like these American "teeny-bopper" films they're trying to stuff down teenagers(me)throats!It was awesome.I think everyone should at least see it once,go rent it!
