What am I? Chopped Liver? BWAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Added 2/27/2010
One would think that a movie about conjoined twins would be incredibly stupid. Add in the fact that it's made by the Farrelly brothers, and it's a near lock. The truth, however, is that this movie is at times hilarious and heart-warming at the same time.
Walt (Greg Kinnear) and Bob (Matt Damon) are joined at the liver, living a semi-normal life in Martha's Vineyard. They've ingratiated themselves to the community so much that they're seen as normal, accepted by all. Equally independent (as much as possible anyway), Bob is the athlete and Walt is an aspiring actor, but both must deal with their linked limitations to gain happiness. Along the way, of course, they consider separation, but regardless of the surgery they will never be apart.
The funniest aspects of this film are the sporting competitions. Seeing the twins pummel opponents boxing, strike out unaware batters, and lateral to one another in football is brilliant. Their initial success, or lack thereof, in Hollywood is laugh out loud funny - especially their run-in with Rebecca Romijn Staymoist. HA! It doesn't end there; however, be on the look-out for the following scenes, which are all hilarious: the fight scene in a club, the Giant Teddy Bear dialogue with some serious tongue-in-cheek comedy, blue screen balancing acts, the obligatory gum sponsorship, and the rapid fire jailhouse puns.
Eva Mendes plays a boob looking for acting stardom, providing the movie's "heart," staying abreast of the brothers' difficulties and helping them get their secret of their chest(s). She pets puppies in one scene and looks like a Hooter's waitress throughout the movie. Also, tits.
This isn't for everyone, but if you like stupid humor, the Farrelly brothers, or a collection of the absurd - including a Meryl Streep dance number - then this is worth the time. I laughed nearly the entire movie.

One of the funniest movies I've ever seen. A classic!
Added 11/9/2009
I put this movie in the same class as Goodfellas, Now Voyager, Godfather II, Mildred Pierce, American Beauty and The Big Chill as a movie I feel the need to watch every few months. It never gets old. I love the relationship between the brothers. They believe in each other so much. They each think the other is really great. It's a very funny movie but very touching at the same time. There are lessons to be learned from this movie about believing in people, trusting them and looking at people without seeing just how they are different from everyone else.
And the cameos are hilarious.

Weird but funny, if you don't have a Carrot Top movie to watch...

Movie comedy with engaging cast (except Ms.
Facelift(s), Cher) about cojoined twins. Cute
lines in here like: "In case you hadn't noticed,
I'm aging faster than you, I only have 34% of
OUR liver. Don't miss the baseball pitching
or hockey goalie scenes. Not with the Stanley
Cup running now and another Wolrd Series in
Oct., as usual. Cher plays a stuck up b*tch -
just as we always knew she is in real life.
A new approach to comedy about a touchy subject.
Pick Up On It!

Get ready to split your sides laughing at the comical antics of twin brothers who not only share life but also share a kidney. Played by Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear the Farrelly brothers show just what a conjoined life is really like when Greg Kinnear decides to pursue his dream of becoming an actor and convinces his twin Matt Damon to go along with him. The situation unfolds in a most comical fashion which will tickle your funny bone until tears spring from your eyes. It is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face whenever you consider this film after viewing.
