It Takes Two

From what the IMDb reveals, "It Takes Two" was pretty much thrown away during its scant theatrical release despite being a major studio production. If you ask me, it shouldn't have been released at all. Actually, it shouldn't even have been made. I've tried to think of at least one point of merit to be found, but I can't think of anything nice to say about the movie at all. It goes wrong in every way you can think of. None of the characters in the movie is the least bit sympathetic, and with that in mind you can probably understand why there isn't the least bit of chemistry between the two leads. The script is a real mess - although the movie only runs 79 minutes long, there is a ridiculous amount of padding. Maybe if the movie had been funny such problems could have been overlooked, but there's not one laugh to be found. It'll take two minutes watching the movie to realize you're watching a stinker.

Well I'm not living in Arizona... though my IQ exceeds the room temperature.

I think it is a matter of Your own preferences if You like this film or if You don't. Sure, this film is not comparable to films like Titanic, Gladiator, Star Wars or something else like that.

In my opinion this is a real good piece of entertainment in the way it has been done in the eighties... You can damn it or love it.

I would say this film is a road movie, surely the story is somehow strange but nevertheless funny.

At least I would say You could take a look at it if You like cars like the Lamborghini Countach and if You can understand what it's able to do with a young man.

It's a comedy about starting a life as a young married couple. Formulated by 1980s comedic writers to be a safe look in to a wedding from two distinct view points; his desire to not be his Dad and her desire to marry for love. Exotic car and trip to big city mixes with sleazy car dealer and sexy saleswoman equals coming of age for our hero. See past the critics and negative reviews. See the pair come together to fulfill their need for each other.

Let's see...

dude wants a sweet Lambo, 'cause like Lamborghini is like too many syls, y'know?

dude wants to marry totally hawt chick

dude gets into bogus trouble, did NAWT see that coming, fer sher.

*sigh*

This movie proves that great writing talent is not hereditary. Compare Mathesons father and son yourself.

George Newbern is sexy but wasted in this. I kept wanting to slap some sense into his character.

Anthony Geary, wasted in yet another oddball role.

Nobody to root for. Skip this one.

This movie is absolute garbage. You will hate Travis unlike any character you've ever hated. He basically treats Jonni like a whore and receives a wedding and a car that he doesn't deserve in the slightest. I hated this guy and it ruined what could have been a fun and interesting adventure involving the lambo from hell. Give this one a skip.
