Reviews
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
DubyaHan The movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
Bryan 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.
Claudio Carvalho In Texas, the naive Travis Rogers (George Newbern) quits his job to marry his beloved Stephanie "Stephi" Lawrence (Leslie Hope) and work with his father-in-law. However he decides to buy a car with his US$ 5,000.00 savings in Dallas before the wedding. He goes to a car dealer and the sexy saleswoman Jonni Tigersmith (Kimberly Foster) convinces him to buy an expensive fully-loaded Lamborghini-type car after the test drive. But soon Travis finds that his car is a piece of junk. When Jonni sees the car, she has an argument with her crooked boss since it is not the test drive car and is fired together with the mechanic. She meets Travis and they have one night stand. They team up with the mechanic and decide to retrieve the car he bought. Meanwhile Stephi is waiting for travel for the rehearsals and finally for the wedding. Will Travis marry Stephi or stay with Jonni?"It Takes Two" is another funny comedy from the 80's. The misadventures of Travis with his brand-new car and the situation of Stephi alone in the rehearsals are funny and Kimberly Foster is sexy and gorgeous. The conclusion is conventional but adequate for Travis' behavior. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Com Qual das Duas?" ("With Which One of the Two?")
Wizard-8 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.
froggybottom this is one of the great movies of the '80's. travis and stephi will get married in a few days but before travis gets married he wants to sow his wild oates by going to the big city (dallas) and buying an "imitation lamborghini". at the dealership he meets sex vixen sales rep jonni tigersmith and she convinces him to buy all the options but the extended warranty. once he drives off the lot the cars goes ballistics and conks out. all the while he's trying to get the dealership to repair his lemon but no extended warranty means no service. so he and jonni team up with the recently fired chief mechanic to break out another car from the dealership firebomb it and race the crooked manager in a chase scene. back in his home town stephi is still waiting on word on when he's supposed to return so they can get married...you can't take this movie to seriously, it stacks up great to other great movies from the '80's and '90's better off dead, one crazy summer, men at work, the chase, buffy the vampire slayer, i'm gonna get you sucka, mannequin, the first and maybe the second police academy, etc.
