Twins (1988) First Time Watching! Movie Reaction!! 

Yakety yak! Don’t talk back! Another great Arnold movie! Comedy, heart and action all wrapped up in a perfect role for Arnold! Thank you all for the suggestions and the support! RIP Kelly Preston

Kindergarten Cop should be next in Arnold's comedy trip. After this movie, there is a video reunion of those kids who are now grown adults talking about making that movie.

Because this was Arnold's first comedy, Universal was afraid the movie would bomb, so both he and Danny DeVito agreed to waive their salaries and take 20% of the movie's gross box office. But the movie was an unexpected hit. This resulted in both of them earning more money from TWINS than any other movie in their careers. It's rumored that Universal actually lost money on it because of this deal.

R.I.P Kelly Preston. Truly one of the hottest ladies of the mid to late 80's. Also check her out in Mischief and Spellbinder (if you can find it).

Marnie was played by Kelly Preston who was married to John Travolta but she sadly passed away last year from cancer…..

Great pic this and Kindergarten cop, play to Arnolds comedic strengths

The guy Arnold initially thinks is his brother is also his stunt double in a ton of his movies.

When "Twins" came out I saw it I the theater and I wondered how the hell are they gonna pull off Danny Devito as an Arnold Twin. It seemed so crazy, but they made it work. It was such a funny, entertaining ride. And Kelly Preston was jaw droppingly beautiful.

Kelly Preston is a 12 out of 10 in this movie. When she leans over in her seductive pose wearing that lingerie. MEN HAVE GONE TO WAR FOR LESS.

I always forget just what a great, and underrated movie this is. I've always considered it a turning point in Arnold's career. He started doing a lot more comedy after this and I've always felt that this movie really showcased his potential as an actor beyond action movies.

For more Danny DeVito try Throw Momma From the Train. It's him and Billy Crystal dealing with family issues.

Oh Kelly Preston, what a great actress.The four main actors really made this movie work. It was fun watching it first time and many times after. It's still a good movie that can still hold up to others.

Vincent is such a scoundrel and hustler. The Nature vs nurture speech that Arnold gave was unexpected and touching. It's what give,"Twins" such depth and heart. We all feel like Vincent sometimes. All the genetic flaws we have to overcome to find self love and fulfillment can totally drive one through life.

A great 80s movie with Danny Devito is Ruthless People, also starring Judge Reinhold and the always awesome Bette Mildler. It is hilarious and one of my fav movies of all time. Please consider reacting to it! 💜

Another great fun Arnold reaction - now can't wait for Kindergarten Cop for some more comedy!

The movie, 'Twins', which was originally called 'The Experiment', was developed specifically for me. Because when I met Ivan Reitman, I said to him, "I want you to direct me, I want to get into comedy. No one will hire me for comedy, because everyone is making a lot of money from me, with action movies, so it's very hard for me to cross over because people don't want to take the risk." So he said, "I think that you're very funny, and I think that we should develop some stuff for you." So he developed five scripts, and one of them was 'The Experiment.' I fell in love with the idea, and then we changed it to 'Twins' and came up with the idea to have Danny DeVito play not only someone that behaves opposite of me but also looks totally the opposite. I thought that it was very, very funny because all he had to do was kind of show the poster of Danny leaning against me and saying, "Only their mother can tell them apart." I mean, it made everyone laugh. So it was hugely successful, it was unbelievable. And I was so happy because it was actually my first movie that made domestically over $100 million, and it was a comedy, not an action movie. So from then on, of course, I got offered a lot of action movies, but Danny and I, we rehearsed those scenes, but we just had so much fun on the set rehearsing those scenes and doing all those same things and having the same mannerisms, and the scratching our butts at the same time and doing all this kind of stuff. So I think it was great, and it was brilliantly written. - Arnold Schwarzenegger (from The Terminator (1984), Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991), Predator (1987), Batman & Robin (1997), Pumping Iron (1977), Conan the Barbarian (1982), Kindergarten Cop (1990), Jingle All the Way (1996), Total Recall (1990), True Lies (1994) and Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)), who played Julius Benedict in Twins (1988).

The after sex smile from Arnold killed me the first time I saw this.😂😂😂 This is my favorite Arnold comedy (True Lies is a action comedy imo).

Danny Devito's Tour De Force movie is Other Peoples Money. It is an excellent film. The guy you recognize from Arnold's other movies is Sven-Olaf Thorson. He was also in Predator as the Russian Advisor to the South American Guerillas who shot the American Soldier in the head before Arnold's team laid waste to the base.

This was such a surprise movie for me when I was a kid because I wasn't use to him in something not an action movie. Great pick!

Such a fantastic collaboration of Danny and Arnold. I love them in Junior 1996 also. One i highly recommend you try. Its an Unknown Gem often overlooked.

Got to love the ultra happy 80's movie endings.

I got a couple Danny Devito movies Romancing the Stone 1984 and its sequel Jewel of the Nile 1985 both real fun Adventure movies that also starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner

So sad that kelly preston was the crush of entire generations in the 80s and 90s and to find out later in life she passed away in 2020. Life sometimes just sucks. But great reaction as always :)

The hitman with a lot on his mind was in Total Recall, Kuato's conjoined brother.

A couple suggestions with Danny DeVito: The war of the roses Throw momma from the train

Still quote this flick to this day, " you forgot the 1st rule in a crisis situation" and "i have no respect for those who have no respect for logic" idk as a youngling i really liked this movie for some reason : P

This was one of the first VHS i bought with my allowance. If you want to see these team up again and still want a great plot "Junior" is the way to go.

They've been talking about doing a sequel called 'Triplets' with the same characters finding out there's a third brother and it turns out to be...Eddie Murphy. Could be hilarious or really bad.

Finally! I've been waiting for someone to do this one.

FFS Tears flowing Danny Devito, “Momma?” at the end 😭😭😂 lol

Great reaction! This was actually one of Arnold's biggest hits surprisingly. I also really agree how beautiful and charming the late Kelly Preston was.

This movie's a classic. I just love the scene when Julius looks at the Rambo poster. A quick jab at Stallone as far as his competition with him in Hollywood stardom.

That was a very good movie and had behind of all the comedy and fun aspects a very deep message. The chemistry between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito was absolutely amazing. The mid eighties were the beginning of a battle between Arnie and Sylvester Stallone, both had a lot of action, but also comedy movies at this time. That's one of my favourites with a lovely creative storyline.

This movie is pure happiness! I haven't seen it in years. So glad you reacted!

Not an Arnold movie, but, if you haven't seen it I would love to see you guys do City Slickers. Another fun, funny, wholesome classic. It would dovetail in nicely if you do Throw Mama from the Train first, since that connects with it starring Danny Devito and Billy Crystal, and City Slicker has Billy Crystal as the lead role.

Classic! Check out Kindergarten Cop

I originally watched Twins when it came out on vhs and my parents let me rent it from our local video store and everyone enjoyed it (even with a few “raunchier” parts). Fast forward to about 2 years ago, and I found a vhs copy of Twins at my local thrift store, snapped it up and watched it with my dad and not only does it hold up but we both Re-appreciated on new levels. Current film lack this type of PG13 adorable-ness. RIP Kelly Preston.

Wonder if Eddie Murphy is still up for the sequel 🤔

Such a cute movie. I have great memories of watching this as a kid, and from what I can see it still holds up. If you haven't seen it, I would love to see a reaction to Dark City (director's cut). Fantastic sci-fi film.

Favorite Arnold comedy is Kindergarten Cop.

After Arnold, review Stallone's career - his main competition in the 80s and 90s. Stallone has great movies too.

34:58 That's the actor Sven-Ole Thorsen who has been in many of Arnold's movies throughout his career. He was in Conan, Red Sonja, Predator, Running Man, Twins, Red Heat, Terminator 2 and Last Action Hero with Arnold. They're good friends.

Chloe Webb's best (and least-sympathetic) performance was in "Sid and Nancy". You might check out "Stay Hungry" which was Arnie's first picture, a sort of quasi-documentary that put him on the map. I was fortunate enough to see it in a theater when it was released.

"Take out da papahs and da trash! Aww yoo don't get no spending cash!" 😂😂😂

One of my favourite Arnie movies. Can't wait for your reaction to Last Action Hero also. His comedic roles are awesome!

I'm a twin myself and I remembered seeing this in the theater with my brother and our friend. This was hilarious and heartfelt. Arnold and Danny made an interesting and amazing pair. R.I.P. to the beautiful and talented Kelly Preston, whom I have also admired from this film as well.

Wow. I think I last saw this 20 years ago. Love when Danny DeVito says,"Yooooo! Holy Schmoly!" at the end. Haha, I've never seen so much chain.

You should react to the old "Taxi" series, where Danny Devitto's star was born!

Great movie! I remember seeing it when it came out, it was so fun to see Arnold play against his action hero type. A sequel is supposedly in the works called Triplets. Apparently there was a third baby from “the shake” and their brother will be played by Eddie Murphy

Kindergarten Cop and then Pumping Iron and you're done!

Twins is a great movie; I do not understand why it is so ignored these days.

I loved this movie when I was a kid! I grew up watching Arnold in action movies and sneaking late Saturday nights when I was supposed to be asleep to watch late night reruns, including Taxi, with Danny Devito. So this movie was so fun for me to revisit for a minute. Btw, If you're gonna be doing movie reactions based on 80s action stars, I would like to suggest Kurt Russell, you've already seen him as Mac in "The Thing", but he's also in John Carpenter's "Escape From New York" and (my favorite of his) "Big Trouble In Little China". ***** Oh and, he was Reno Hightower in "The Best of Times" with Robin Williams, love that movie too!

Great to see your love for Arnie & brilliant to watch these movies again after such a long time. Loved this movie when it came out.

I re-watched this a couple of years ago, having seen it in the theater. I'm already ridiculously nostalgic, but I got hit with an intense wish for it to be 1988 again.

been waitin on this one lol

A pretty good movie from the1980s with Kelly Preston is Space Camp. Just my personal opinion. It also stars Joaquin Phoenix, Kate Capshaw, and Lea Thompson.

Y'all missed commenting on the Stallone rivalry shot in the film. As Arnold walks through L.A. experiencing downtown Hollywood. He comes across the poster for Rambo II. That a one line in itself, without saying a word.

Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😉 Im glad you enjoyed it as much as I did! There is even a sequel in the works, titled Triplets, it will star Eddie Murphy as a successful movie producer, whom is also Arnold and Danny's Long Lost Brother! 🤣

and yeah, the other Arnold + Danny movie, is "Junior" from 1994, which stars a pregnant Arnold..... just the idea alone, is already hilarious enough.

DeVito and Arnold played together in another movie - "Junior". They work really well together.

TBR is secret code for “Twin BRother” - the secret is out.

I'd recommend "Matilda" with Dany DeVito, an awesome movie!!

This movie is great, I love how light-hearted and happy it is, outside of dealing with the bad guys of course, but even then 👍👍 Great reactions as always 😇

Kindergarten Cop! Kindergarten Cop! Kindergarten Cop! Kindergarten Cop!

Aww this is Awesome!! You 2 r amazing😍🤙Cheers y’all 🤘😎

It's been a while since I've watched this movie, i think I may watch it later this week. When I was a kid I used to watch DeVito in Taxi, it's great that he's forged such a long lasting career to this day. I'm sure it's been mentioned plenty before, but you have to watch 'Midnight Run' some time, it's a classic and you'll love it.

Such an amazingly unexpectedly good movie. The heart, charisma, humor, even the music to underscore the emotions of the scenes all on-point.

Thank you. FINALLY someone reacts to Twins.. You HAVE to react to Junior now. Its the other Devito/Arnold movie.

When Twins came out I thought it was the stupidest idea ever for a movie. I was not gonna waste my time on Arnold and Danny playing twins. My neighbor brought over a vhs tape of a Star Trek movie and Twins. Shelved it. Then one day I was home from work, sick as a dog. Nothing to watch, so in desperation I plugged in Twins. LOVED it. For an hour or so I forgot I was sick and had a great time.

For Heather Graham at her best check out, "Boogie Nights"

Last Action Hero should be the next Arnold flick, sooooo good guys.

Schwarzenegger in a horror movie? That’s right, 1999’s End of Days. Love your reactions

When Julius (Ahnold) asks "Do I look cool now?", and Vincent replies "Mr. Ice!" it is just such an amazing foreshadowing to one of future Ahnold's role as Mr Freeze in one of the Batman movies. Especially because Danny DeVito played the Penguin Tim Burton's Batman Returns.

Becoming the Arnold Classics channel... And I'm NOT complained about it. Great movie picks on this channel!!!

That Twins poster in thumbnail reminds me of Blues Brothers movie)

As many have mentioned, Kindergarten Cop is great, reuniting Arnold with Twins director Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters), but I can't say I recommend Junior, which also brought back Danny DeVito -- it's by far the weakest of the three collaborations. For awhile, Arnold was talking up a sequel to Twins called Triplets, in which he and DeVito find out about a third brother played by Eddie Murphy, but I have to say I'm pretty skeptical that that will actually happen.

The first of four films starring Schwarzenegger with Ivan Reitman as director. Reitman passed away in Winter 2022 after the release and success of Ghostbusters Afterlife; directed by his son, Jason. He will be missed. But his work is incredible.

Heather Graham is the love interest in a another movie that came out the same year as Twins called License to Drive with Corey(s) Haim and Feldman. Also, a reoccurring trope in the 80's was to include either drug dealers (mostly cocaine, it was [is] super popular in Hollywood) or Russians as the villains in most 80's movies.

It would really be cool to se you watch "Where Eagles Dare" from 1969 with Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood 😃 Love your channel 👍

Not an Arnold movie, but The Skulls popped into my head earlier. Has quite a few recognizable faces in it but the main ones would have to be Joshua Jackson and Paul Walker.

I knew you two would be posting soon. I've been waiting.

So glad you two got into this, I was watching your vid with a full on smile the whole time. The director, Ivan Reitman, was on a serious roll with this addition to his already stellar portfolio, so many of which are personal faves and are worth your time checking out (Meatballs, Stripes, Legal Eagles, and obviously Ghostbusters). The matching wardrobe scene reminded me of Rain Man, another worthy addition to your list :) p.s. Kelly Preston is great in Jerry McGuire as well.

6:21: Several minutes earlier; "He had become obsessed with the idea that his brother, Vincent, was in some kind of trouble, and desperately needed his help."

Another great movie about an intelligent guy who's had a sheltered upbringing is "Blast from the Past".

Arnold is awesome in comedies. Probably even better than action except for Terminator 1 and 2. True Lies had action too, but the comedy definitely made that movie stand out.

Another Schwarzenegger/DeVito movie you might like is Junior.

More Arnold! “Kindergarten Cop” next! “It’s not a tu-mah!”

This was great. Thanks. You must watch "Blast to the Past." Very wholesome comedy with a similar plot.

The bad guy was in total recall. He was quato.

If y'all want to see The twins theme and nature vs nurture theme. Check out, "MEGAMIND!!!!!!!!!!! It's one of my all time favorites.

Now do Kindergarten Cop

"I'll be back" in a Arnie movie is the original Stan Lee in a MCU movie. You know it/he is gonna show up, and it's always fun to see how they'll work it/him in.

"Are you serious? I had a hit movie with a midget!"

Kindergarten Cop is for sure the natural next movie!

Junior next please! haha its terrible and amazing lol.

I can't believe I saw this back in 1988. My God how time flies!

Rest In Peace Kelly Preston so sad she’s gone. She was married to John Travolta.

It's funny that you never caught the whole dynamic between the brothers and the sisters where the good brother/sister is attracted to the naughty one. Hence, Linda went for Angel cake and Marnie wanted Devil's cake. As for Arnie's "I'll be back" catchphrase, Predator and Total Recall do not have that line anywhere throughout their entire durations, but both films are still full of great one-liners regardless that they don't really need it.

21:40 And Conan the Barbarian, Raw Deal, Predator and Last Action Hero. And I may have missed some :)

The last time I saw Twins was on VHS, LOL! If you two like Danny Devito; these are some of my favorites: The Ratings Game - 1984( co-starring with ex-wife Rhea Perlman ) Ruthless People - 1986( co-starring Bette Midler ) He produced a serious film you might find interesting as well: Gattaca - 1997( starring Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman ) I'm glad you guys liked the movie and remembered who Kelly Preston was 😢. She'll be missed. Thanks for the video and great reactions. 😀
