It took a long time to finally watch this movie but I did it. It is a good comedy with some good chuckles and message of family. Arnold and Danny had a good duo going with their characters based on the different backgrounds that they came from. Arnold knew so much but had experienced so little since he was on an island his whole life. Danny didn't know much of general knowledge but experienced much more than Arnold. Their twin duality was good and made decent entertainment. The dialogue had some good quotes. They literally had Arnold say "I'll be back." like in the Terminator which was kind of lazy to do. Ah heck it was the 80s and they had Arnold. The best getaway from the movie is the message of family and how Arnold and Danny look and act so differently, they are brothers. The genetic doctor that they meet that planned to make the best genetically modified man literally told Danny that he took all the crap and Arnold got all the good stuff when they were born genetics-wise. Seeing them as a family again with their real mom and their new families with Linda and Marina. Biggest downside was the conflict wasn't that high and the antagonists were so incompetent. It's an entertaining film and probably one of Arnold's best comedies.
