This week, Shat The Movies tackles one of the most bafflingly successful high-concept comedies of the '80s: Twins, the movie that asked, "What if Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito were genetically engineered brothers?" and somehow convinced the world to buy a ticket.

Gene and Big D revisit Ivan Reitman's unlikely buddy comedy to examine Arnold playing against type as a naive, hyper-intelligent gentle giant, while DeVito leans hard into sleaze, scams, and short-man rage. The guys debate whether the fish-out-of-water humor still works, unpack the film's bizarre science experiment premise, and marvel at how much charm carries a plot that makes absolutely no sense.

From the stolen car hustle to the desert bonding trip and that wildly convenient third-act reunion, Twins swings big on heart—even when the genetics are pure fantasy.
