Hi I watched a comedy a few years ago about identical twin men that had long dark hair. I think they had to help look after/teach twin boys and I think there was also a woman or two that they liked. The guys looked a bit like wrestlers though I don’t remember them being famous wrestlers - maybe they were. Anyone know what it was called or what the names of the men were? Thanks! ---

_[Twin Sitters](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0122768/)_, starring Peter and David Paul, was actually a 90’s movie. ETA: I want to mention that, even though I answered it quickly, I actually never saw this movie. I just remembered reading about it from somewhere or something. And the Paul brothers, BTW, were actors; they were in the first _Mortal Kombat_ movie, for example. ---

Oooh! It was written and directed by Jambi from Pee-wee’s Playhouse! ---

This film is unlikely to make my Netflix queue. ---

They were great in _Double Trouble_, with one of them playing a cop and the other a cat burglar. Very funny movie. ---

I remember being quite fond of their movie Think Big as a kid. Especially the bit with their version of the “bones” song: “the leg-bone’s connected to the liver-bone, the liver-bone’s connected to the kidney-bone…” I am certain that if I saw it again I would hate it, but ten-year-old me loved it.
