how much it moved you

Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.

Nobody has rated this on FlickFeel yet. This is public discussion of this title, read into a curve. It is not a rating and it never becomes one.

Read from 18 comments (12 from Metacritic, 6 from TMDB reviews) — 2 of them described how it moves.

Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 2 comments. The shaded band is how wide the uncertainty actually is, and it is drawn to scale.

Not enough people said when to name this shape. The line is what the evidence draws, not a finding.

Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.

“The "Problem" with the Movie was the whole dramatic Part of it . I personally think this was totally unnecessary. There was no need for the plot with the Killer”

“A lame early 90's comedy movie as we love them. A dumb scenario paved with holes and inconsistencies that the films uses to showcase weird and funny events. This plot is so confusing that it becomes original, since it manages to find an identity for it. In my opinion it surprises in surpassing the pathetic joke of the big strong and the small petty. I couldn't stand DeVito, his character's evolution and acting. Schwarzenegger was also surprisingly funny, and the few meta-jokes he does makes it ”

“So much fun to be had here. As long as you know what to expect, and really that shouldn't be too hard to do when you are getting ready to watch a movie that has Danny DeVito & Arnold Schwarzenegger as twin brothers! Julius (Arnold) & Vincent (Danny) are the result of a genetic experiment that should have realised the perfect child, instead they were born as twins, separated at birth and both went on to lead different lives. Julius was raised on a gorgeous island, he is greatly educated and”

“Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend, if you're okay with a date movie. This movie holds up surprisingly well. It is dated quite a bit, just the dollar amounts they mention are off, and car phones and pay phones. I give full credit to the delivery of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito that keeps this movie enjoyable after all this time. The premise is almost laughable in 1988, but since then we've come so far as it actually being possible that this moves from science fict”

“Fun and all around enjoyable comedy that doesn't devolve into cheap humor (i.e. constant jokes about their height for instance) and instead two opposites working well off of one another. Schwarzenegger is great as sweet innocent and naïve while Devito as a schemer and crook still was likeable. **3.75/5** I think I had seen this sometime back in the 90s but didn't remember much of it.”

“<em>'Twins'</em> is terrific! It is another one 'of those films' that I've heard about for as long as time (though post-watch it doesn't seem as (relative) well known as I thought it was!) but clearly never got around to watching it. Well I have now and I'm certainly glad I did, it's a great watch. Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger are a fantastic duo. DeVito is always good, one of my favourites to see onscreen. Schwarzenegger impresses, I've obviously seen a decent amount of his work”
