A comedic classic
Ivan Reitman is a comedic genius and has an eye for talented actors, like Schwarzenegger and Devito. This film is a relic of its time, but it is also vanguard, even today, and continues to tell a story that is vital to our time: finding oneself in others, choosing and not choosing family, love and sex, genetics and personal history, abandonment and privilege. It presents these ideas, although in small, digestible doses, with artistry that is to be enjoyed and appreciated. Well done!

Great overall Blu-ray release for a terrific, ageless comedy!
This review is focused on the picture and sound quality of the new Blu-ray release from Shout! Factory, released in early December, 2020. The quality of the story has been reviewed extensively by others here, so I will just discuss the brand-new Blu-ray version.I bought this as an Amazon pre-order, which arrived a few days ago, and I went to view it with trepidation, because I think Shout! Factory generally makes inferior products. However, this TWINS Blu-ray was a pleasant surprise! The picture quality is the best I've ever seen for this film, and I've seen it many times; I own the DVD, and I've rented it on Amazon Prime Video in supposedly "high-definition," but their high-definition version of this movie just isn't that great; it was quite soft in both the focus and the colors. Not so this new Blu-ray disc, however! It has a vivid picture, with bright colors that make this film look fairly recent, although it would not be confused with a movie that was shot with high-definition cameras as they do nowadays. But it's a really good high-definition rendering of what is a 32-year-old,1988 film, after all, and the focus is quite sharp, the colors are wonderful as already noted, the sound is excellent, and there is just nothing to fault in regard to the video or audio. I've seen some other movies from the same year that had even better Blu-ray pictures-- but very few-- as TWINS is an excellent Blu-ray. And it also has English subtitles for the hearing impaired, which I really enjoy, and it has four extras, including 2 interviews done in 2020, one with Ivan Reitman, the other with Herschel Weingrod, one of the writers; also, there is a theatrical trailer and a stills gallery.As much as I can't stand Shout! Factory for the way they butchered the ALL IN THE FAMILY, season 7 release, Shout! Factory's first seasonal release for that classic TV series (the first 6 seasons were released by Sony Pictures), plus the fact that they have refused to fix the problem they caused there (they butchered the picture in every episode), but the fact is, their TWINS Blu-ray is a winner. It has a fine high-definition picture, which is really all I was seeking, and is a nice, full, Blu-ray offering for this outstanding comedy. I recommend this Blu-ray highly.
