TEARS OF FIRE - BARBARIAN BROS has had 35,000+ views! Thanks to all my brothers (barbarian or otherwise) on the interweb.
This is my, Fredo's, tribute to one of the greatest on screen duos of all time... Peter Paul and David Paul, better known as the Barbarian Brothers. These talented actors/singers/bodybuilders/poets have worked with famous directors such as Oliver Stone and Joel Schumaker as well as screen legends; Woody Harrelson, Adam Baldwin, Joey Travolta (John's famous brother), Tia Carerre, Mat Dillon, Gary Busey, Bull (from Night Court) and the one and only Mr. T(imagine how much muscle was on the screen!). The barbarian brothers have a chemistry that few other comedy duos have even came close to matching. They may not be good actors, good comedians, good action-stars, but man can they make an hour and a half of film that is a pleasure to watch. Lets all hope these big galoots keep the dream alive in the years to come. |
An amazing movie about two brothers that have no money and want to start their own restaurant. They take a job babysitting another set of twins to make money. The kid twins are horrible actors that should never act again. The hilarity knocked me off my seat. This movie scores 11 out of 10 on my scoring system. I recently rewatched this movie and let me tell ya - it gets better each time. Could be the new Troll 2.
I haven't had the privilege to view this movie, YET, but if all goes as planned I will be able to watch it... some day. Maybe when if it finally comes out on Blu-Ray or HD-DVD.
I was at the local convenience store, Michael Johns, and they were selling a whole bunch of old movies. What movie did I run into for $3? You guessed it, Double Trouble. I watched it and there were some scenes that were on par with Twin Sitters, but they try to make it a legitimate action movie too often. Near the end of the VHS the tape quit working so we had to shut it off early. I give this movie 7/10 on my ranking system.
