Plot outline
Stuck On You is a Farrelly Brothers comedy about a pair of conjoined twins. They use their unique gift as a means to gain acceptance and live as normally as possible within everyday life. Everything is going great until Walt (Greg Kinnear) follows his dreams of making it as a Hollywood actor, and persuades his hesitant brother Bob (Matt Damon) to go along for the ride.
The brothers also have to deal with the complications of dating as Bob meets and falls in love with May (Wen Yann Shih), a woman he met online, who is unaware that Bob has a conjoined twin.
Goofs and inaccuracies
- In the end credits, the song "Moonlight Feels Right" by Starbuck appears as written by Michael Blackman. The song was actually written by the lead singer, Bruce Blackman.
- Conjoined twins are the result of an incomplete splitting of an egg and therefore would be identical.
Box office
The movie was able to make back its production budget by grossing $34 million domestically and $32 internationally per boxoffice.mojo.com. In comparison to other Farrelly Brothers pictures; however, the movie considerably underperformed their previous hits. It only managed third place in its opening weekend box office (US) despite having the largest theater count of any movie that weekend (Dec 12-14 2003).
Music
The song "Human" recorded by Cher, who appears in the film, was included in the soundtrack. As there was no Official Soundtrack released, the song remains unreleased on any format. The song can be heard during the end credits of the film and is played during a scene in a club. This is the first Farrelly Brothers film not to have an Official Soundtrack.
The Kings of Leon songs "California Waiting", "Molly Chambers" and "Holy Roller Novacaine" are all featured in the film as well. All three songs appear in the bands first EP 'Holly Roller Novacaine'.
Greg Kinnear's version of "Summertime" is an almost note-for-note cover of Billy Stewart's version of "Summertime".
