Leaves of grass (2009)

In this comedy Edward Norton plays two roles, twins to be exact. He’s not the first actor who does this, example are Nicholas Cage in Adaptation, Jean-Claude van Damme in Double Impact or Arnorld Schwarzenegger in Twi…forget about that last one. Norton manages to show two very different characters with different accents.

I always try to keep my review spoiler free and tell as little as i can about the story (always hate those type of things when reading other reviews) so I’ll keep it to a minimum.
On brother kept living in the little town he grew up in (think redneck country), while the other one has a succesful academic career. This last brother has to return back to the little town. Because people mistake him for his brother this leads to some strange situations. The movie is filled with funny moments, an occasional action scene and is definitely recommended.

Score: 8
