The man with two brains isn't a great comedy. Indeed it does make you laugh at times, is definitely a step up from the spoofs of these days, and is extremely quirky, with some strange scenes such as Steve Martin's character licking his palms so he is able to stick to the side of the building and Merv Griffiths being an "elvator killer" who injects people with window cleaner. But quirky is sometimes a good thing. Although this typical weird 80s comedy is strange it is entertaining. Whether or not it's genius or a completely shite movie is beyond my level of thinking. You can decide for yourself. Fans of such films as "Dr Detroit" or "neighbours", i recommend it to you. 6/10
