Terence Hill is a movie stunt man. Bud Spencer is jazz saxophonist. They are also exact doubles of two Brazilian cousins who are trying to sign a deal, but whose lives are being threatened. The first two are offered a million dollars each to impersonate the latter two for a week, and an additional half million each if they can figure out who's doing it. So they fly down to Brazil and turn the staid, stuffy, effete lives of their doubles upside down.
It's certainly not a novel idea for a comedy movie, so the question is how Hill & Spencer's comedy character make use of situations, as well as the amusement of seeing them playing characters so far from their wheelhouses. It's all very well handled, with lots of the usual low-brow gags and boisterous fight scenes with thugs; Hill & Spencer are, of course, invariably victorious in these.
This sort of slapstick fell out of fashion long ago. For those of us who enjoy old-time comedy, however, will find a lot to take pleasure in their movies in general, and this one in particular.

This was sadly the last good movie Bud and Terence did together, but even then it was obvious Bud Spencer was no longer as fit as he used to be. In previous movies you could really believe that the power in his punches could really have the effect they did. In this one though, he appears sluggish and seems to lack that power he had in previous movies. Age was surely taking its toll on him physically, which is probably why we only got one more movie after this one before they called it quits.
Both men played dual roles in this movie set in Brazil and I have to say they were surprisingly delightful as two toffee nosed, upper-class wimps. It showed just what comedy skills they had and they could do more than just play tough guys.
Classic line in this movie by Bud Spencer "I AM my dietitian!"

Bud Spencer and Terence Hill are well known as a couple of tough guys, but also as an always loveable and truly relatable comedic duo. I love all of their movies, and in my view, this is the very best of the 15-20 (!) movies they made together.
Brilliant, laid-back humor, light hearted but relatable, with a subtle undertone of social commentary (the tough, poor and streetwise characters vs their cowardly, overly anxious zillionaire counterparts).
The sarcastic jokes are also what make this one of their many great comedies my favourite. The absolute gem is when they are ready to have dinner when Tango (the bad guy) and his gang arrive and want to provoke a fight, when at one point which Hill's character says: "The fact that he calls himself Tango in the land of Samba, tells us what a complete idiot he is." - and then, of course, the usual "Spencer & Hill vs 50 other guys" fighting breaks out..... GOLD!
If you're a fan of their movies, this is an absolute must see! If not, this is your best shot of becoming a fan for life. Great humor, pure unspoiled FUN. What more could we ask for from such a movie? 10/10, no question.

"Double Trouble" is actually not a masterpiece of film-making. But especially in Europe, a whole generation grew up with the movies of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill - so if you like them and their kind of movies, you will LOVE "Double Trouble" it is one of their last movies together: you can see that the main characters are aging, but the dialogs are fast and funny and of course you have a lot of brawls. If it is this what you want to see, your expectations can be fulfilled. But if you are interested in really good movies with an intelligent plot and good acting, this is definitely the wrong movie to watch. Although the movie was shot in English, in my opinion it would be better to watch it in Italian or German, if you understand the language - dialogs often do not work in English.
Abbott and Costello, Laurel and Hardy. Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. You may not have heard of them as a double act and that's your loss. No its unforgivable. This film is hilarious. The two meet up by chance after they come to New York having been offered money to go there by two crooked millionaires. Both too stupid or greedy not to sniff that something is very wrong with such a generous offer.
Even more dumb when they asked to pose as them, big bucks prevent their brains from locking into thought mode. The openly time a stranger offers you a lot of money is because something precious to them is at risk and you are going to cover for them. Here its the millionaires lives. The comedy goes into overdrive as they are unaware of the various attempts on their lives, thinking it is only accidents that are surrounding them. There's also the clash of social status. People confusing them for the millionaires who have expensive tastes and know quality and decorum, whereas the look alike are oafish and unsophisticated

- WissenswertesThe script is based on a planned 5th "Flatfoot" movie(this time in Brazil) that never materialized. Instead it was changed to become this movie.
- PatzerWhen Eliot Vance and Greg Wonder are talking in a soccer stadium, they are with the "Vasco da Gama" crowd. After the the goal (footage) they all cheer. But that goal happened in the 1984 Brazilian Soccer Championship final (May,24 1984 at Maracanã Stadium, Rio de Janeiro) made by Vasco's oponent team: "Fluminense".
- Zitate
Eliot Vance: The fact that he calls himself Tango in the land of Samba, tells us he's a complete idiot.
