SlidePocket 707 Posted June 16, 2015 This was the Grease reunion that nobody asked for. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John reunite in this abysmal rom-com involving fate, God and fallen angels who look after our two leads. By the time of its release, Travolta just put out Staying Alive earlier that year and Newton-John's last film was Xanadu so when these two came back together, the critics and audiences soundly rejected them. So please give out your thoughts about Two of a Kind! 1 Share this post Link to post
CommentsFromMyPocket 53 Posted June 16, 2015 This was the Grease reunion that nobody asked for.

By the time of its release, Travolta just put out Staying Alive earlier that year and Newton-John's last film was Xanadu so when these two came back together, the critics and audiences soundly rejected them. So please give out your thoughts about Two of a Kind! Â Currently available on HBOGo. Â Â First off...The first scene looks like the original cut of this film was damaged terribly and thus we only have a terrible quality cut to go with. That or their concept of heaven is not compatible with any attempt at color balance. Also, laziest angels ever. "There's a kid! There's a guy!" No due diligence. Think about this! God will END HUMANITY! You might want to do more research into your horse before placing the bet. Â Some other thoughts: Â What was the point of giving her giving him a fake number? The restaurant scene... Â Worse best friend tandem ever. Â The sexual chemistry between them is tangible. As in I can feel myself beginning to dry heave. Â How did she lose the part? She's been there for 8 whole months! No parts for an Australian? Shit, if there was only some way for a person to change their pronunciation and inflection and tone of their voice! Â Oliver Reed is a fucking marvel. Â I've never seen a movie where the soundtrack is the first thing listed in the credits. 1 Share this post Link to post
SlidePocket 707 Posted June 17, 2015 And guess who voices God? None other than Gene Hackman, who chose to go uncredited because even he knew that Two of a Kind was going to be a stinker. Share this post Link to post
wyldride 285 Posted June 17, 2015 Soundtrack is probably listed first because it's the best thing in the movie. Frankly the video for her song made it seem like a better movie. There were a few things in this movie that were not bad, but mostly in the non-Newton -John/Travolta stuff.  It almost seemed like they made one movie with Newton-John and Travolta and either they didn't have enough material or it just didn't work, so they wrapped aròund it with another plot.  Still, overall, kind of a fun watch.
