In spite of a convincing make-up job and the best efforts of its cast, "Stuck On You" falls as far short of the mark as the Farrelly Brothers' "Shallow Hal" (2001).

This time around a... Following the outrageous comedies THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY, SHALLOW HAL, and DUMB AND DUMBER, the Farrelly brothers present yet another humorous romp with STUCK ON YOU. This time around a couple of conjoined twins (Greg Kinnear and Matt Damon) are the focus, and this premise provides for a relentless string of clever, absurd, and always-fresh jokes. Bob (Damon) and Walt (Kinnear) are living happy lives, perfectly content to be joined by a patch of skin that extends from armpit to hip and allows them to share a liver. Though they must do everything in tandem, they are best friends and treat each other as individuals with separate lives. Living on Martha's Vineyard, Bob (Damon) owns a popular local diner where he and Walt work as incredibly fast-moving short-order cooks with all four hands in perfect sync flipping burgers and slicing vegetables--this is one of the best gags in the film. However, as the brothers are shown playing hockey, fighting kung-fu style, cruising for babes in a bar, and taking on basically any other feat imaginable, the laughs only get better. Trouble comes when suave, confident Walt decides to pursue a Hollywood acting career, and Bob's stage fright, panic attacks, and shyness present a personality clash. Nonetheless, they get to meet Meryl Streep, they land a starring role in a television show with Cher, and they find some nice girlfriends. The Farellys keep their signature gross-out humor to a minimum with this likeable film, and provide some truly great, easily digestible physical comedy. [More]

Reviews for Stuck on You
When not overindulging in birth defect humor, this shock comedy divides its attention between two equally-annoying sub-themes: degrading females and prominent product placements.
Os Farrelly alcançaram um estranho resultado: apesar de não ter rido uma vez sequer durante o filme, confesso que passei a me importar com o destino de seus protagonistas.
An entertaining comedy that gets drowned in too much sap and fails because of it.
A lesser Farrelly brothers movie, but it's got enough laughs and kindness to call it a success.
...in trying to be too politically correct, the Farrellys simply make things too saccharine.
Lo que hacen los Farrelly es reírse de algo considerado “serio” pero como quien se ríe de algo de todos los días.
