The Farrelly Brothers- "Stuck On You". Amazing

The film "Stuck on you", is the most recent Farrelly brothers movie and stars Matt Damon, and Greg Kinnear.

One of my favorite aspects of the movie, is how creative the idea is. The conjoined twins film idea seems like such excellent foundation to a movie. Also, the directors added everything in the movie that i wanted out of it. I was sittin there watching the movie, hoping that they would play football, and they did, baseball, and they did, and golf which they did too. Furthermore, they added the scene where one of the brothers answers the home phone and claims that the other brother is not there, a true comedic moment by Peter and Bobby.

The struggle between the two brothers and their seperation is portrayed by the directors perfectly. They do not overexagerrate the the operation but it still plays an important role without being disrespectful to conjoinded twins across the country.

The comedy in this film is textbook Farrelly brothers, with crude hilarious jokes that are not afraid of going too far. A signature aspect of theirs.

I felt it necessary to make a comment on my own post.

One other part of the film that i didn't mention in my original post was the overall humor that Jack Black and Jason Alexander and Gwenyth Paltrow add to the movie. Jack Black usually doesn't impress me, for example, i did not find him funny in the film "Orange Country". While other people found him hilarious, i was just not impressed with his acting,however in shallow hal, he really was excellent at getting laughs, and more importantly doing a good job acting and boosting overall movie quality

hahaha yes dan I loved the part where he answered the phone and said the other wasnt there.. absolutly hilarious. Good post though, I agree it is a great idea/foundation for a movie, but at the same time I also thought this wasnt one of the farrelly brothers best films. It wasnt the classic like Dumb and Dumber, and it wasnt as funny as Shallow Hal... it was just OK for me , although i loved the acting by Matt Damon in the movie
