In time every sad ending will become happy. The sad ending is only because the author stops telling the story. But it still goes on. It's just untold.

Quite a unique piece about conjoined twins. The brothers' acting was remarkable and the film was somehow warm. Slowpaced and awkward at times, but left a good impression.

This film is more like a daydream shared between two brothers than a film. The conjoined twins appear, they walk around all day on Halloween acting normal, and the end is as predictable as an ending can be. Who is giving this flop good reviews? If you want to fall asleep watching a movie, watch this piece of crap...

What a beautifully told story this is.....not overly sentimental and yet there are scenes that can't help but have an emotional impact. The Polish brothers are brilliant and Michelle Hicks very impressive in her role as Penny.

The Advocate

Clichés abound, but the film comes from a genuine place (these guys know their material), which gives emotional weight to its quiet lessons about love, acceptance, and separation.

What makes it so haunting is the sensitivity to its lead characters and their unusual plight.

Eye for Film

shares its themes with Dead Ringers and A Zed & Two Noughts, even if it is not as disturbing as the former, as downright weird as the latter, or as intelligent as either.
