Muscle-bound twins try to smash a jewel smuggling ring. Only once in a lifetime does a movie come along that not only defines a generation but challenges the artistic community to match its awesomeness.<br/><br/>Double Trouble is that movie.<br/><br/>So corny and cheesy that it could feed a starving nation, more mullets than a Billy Ray Cyrus tribute night, a soundtrack swiped from a 70s porno, and acting so good that the only reason that the one of the Barbarians brothers didn't win an Oscar was because they were so inseparably brilliant that it would have been a crime to award it to only one of them.<br/><br/>Can anyone watch this film and see the brothers run (run brothers, run) without wondering if buffalo have become bipeds? Laugh? Though I'd never stop.<br/><br/>This movie was truly mega-awesome but as I watched, cramped in belly splitting convulsions, I felt that there was something missing, some icon that would confirm to me that I was experiencing cinematic nirvana… and then there he was… David Carradine. Enough said.<br/><br/>10 Dolph Lundgrens How would you like to be known as the Paul twin who couldn't act as well as his brother? Ouch. This movie is like a really bad Saturday morning cartoon- the main character always wears the same clothes, the dialogue is filled with corny jokes only kids will laugh at, and the plot is simple and predictable. (If you can't figure out how things will turn out with the wussy partner, you haven't seen many movies.) If you like Mystery Science Theater, you might enjoy this movie for campy action value. Otherwise, avoid it so you don't have to cringe at this clever exchange between the twins: "No way." "Yes way." "No way." "Yes way." "No way…"
