Our Score

by Joanna Berry

Here's one of those rare things: a one-joke comedy that actually works. Danny DeVito plays the dim-witted scuzzball who discovers naive, intelligent Arnold Schwarzenegger is his genetically engineered brother. Comic moments abound as the odd couple team up to find their long-lost mom, with Arnie's first awkward attempt at romance with Kelly Preston one of the highlights. DeVito is on great form and Arnie shows that he can handle comedy, although when the pair (and director Ivan Reitman) teamed up again for Junior, the result wasn't quite as successful.

Summary

An unlikely pair of brothers, who were born as the result of a one-off genetic experiment and separated at birth, are reunited in adulthood. They set out on a cross-country search for their unknown mother - fending off vicious loan sharks and a professional assassin along the way. Comedy, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, Kelly Preston and Chloe Webb.
