Attention les dégâts

Firstly I would like to confess that I love the duo comic Hill-Spencer since my teenage years, here in Brazil they are absolutely famous and quite often their movies were aired at TV, even in my widest dream I never supposed one day has all movies of them to watch anytime that I wanna do, this time they living in America and with strong similarity with two Brazilian odd millionaires, who are in trouble with their contenders there, so they offer a million bucks plus an additional of 500 thousand to accomplish the mission on Brazil during just one week.

Those cousin seemingly are sissy and snnoty as always they really are, the job is a piece of cake for ours heroes, at Rio de Janeiro they are treat like kings, however has an unexpected side effects when they went at low degree harbor area, where they had a fight that appears on newspaper, scratching the acquitted reputation of their sponsors, also with harsh social behavior, further attending football match, samba school having attentive with those rolling samba girls, worst when Hill deflowers a platonic love of his clone, priceless moment.

Apart the main casting, has many old acquaintance Brazilian actors in small roles, following the successful formula of previous movies, with tons of punches, slapping, breaking all around and beating the bad guys, car chase and even eating black beans, awesome second last picture of Hill-Spencer!!

Resume:

First watch: 1993 / How many: 4 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7.25.

"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.

What's better than Terrence hill and bud Spenser? Terrence hill and Bud Spenser times two.

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.

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
