Stuck on You (2003)

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

One of my all time favorites.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The Farrelly brother's stuck on you is a decent watch simply because of the bizzarity of the premise. As you'd have guessed this is a story of two brothers who are co-joined at the hip. The film is surprisingly decent despite the feeling that the jokes will fall flat or worse- offend. And this is down to the talent of leads Matt Damon and Greg kinnear. This film is mostly forgotten and that is because it isn't anything special.

the other re·view·er (s) are lost in an air pocket. this is the dumbest piece of people, acting, and captured on film strips. money was spent on this swamp. starving children could have been fed on the dollars wasted on this tripe. it is horrible. got it with netflix membership, want to sue them and anyone else involved. this is horrible

I went seeing this movie without much informations about it. In the first scene director introduces us the main stars and let us know they're Siamese twins-- even thought they don't look much like each other. Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear portray these characters, and it's good to see they are very prepared for the role; let's agree that it requires big connection between the actors and professionalism. Rest of the cast is also talented and support the main actors to develop their characters, delivering an entertaining story with some few funny moments. Of course from the get go we already knew they would occasionally split and in the end they would like to get back together. Fortunately, in the end they just miss each other, but don't feel like going back, which is a good thing, since most filmmakers would appeal to sentimentalism with such subject. Good movie, to rap things up.

Parts of this movie had me howling, although I'll warn you beforehand it's not like the other Farrelly bros films "There's Something About Mary" or "Dumb and Dumber". The laughs here are a lot cleaner, less edgy and pretty family friendly for the most part. Overall, the film is much more subtle, which is either good or bad depending on how you like your comedies.The humour here isn't as slapstick & madcap as you might expect from a movie about conjoined twins. Instead it's more subtle, almost like a Christopher Guest film ("Best in Show", "Waiting for Guffman"). For example one of the best gags is the idea that these conjoined twins (by definition, fraternal twins) look nothing alike. Can Matt Damon & Greg Kinnear look any LESS alike? There's currently an 8-page thread in the discussion board where people think it's a loophole, but ya just gotta smack your forehead. The film has a lot of gags like that where no punchline is required; it's just the situational weirdness that makes us laugh, if you're tuned in to it. Another subtle yet funny example is the way Eva Mendes reacts upon learning that the two are conjoined twins. Contrast this with the way Wenn Yan Shih reacts, and you have some comedy gold right there.If you like subtle humour, I think you'll like this film as well as the underratted knee-slappers "Color Me Kubrick" with John Malkovich, the classic "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" with Michael Caine & Steve Martin, and a funny Mexican film I saw recently called "Casi Divas". These films may not have you convulsing in laughter, but afterwards I guarantee you'll say to yourself, "Dang that was funny."
