Watch The Topp Twins: Untouchable Girls For Free

Let's be realistic.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

A feel-good movie that captures one's attention from the beginning and keeps it riveted to the end. The story of the Topp Twins unfolds chronologically with humor. They share the stage with other New Zealand artists and activists, whom we don't have the pleasure of knowing about here in the United States. The movie tickles with gender shifts, positive political activism, music, family, respect, and love while imparting important messages about tolerance, class differences, human rights, and the power of enjoying one's life to the fullest. As an identical twin, I enjoyed watching the connection between Jools and Linda play out over the time period covered by the movie. The editing of the title song at the end is brilliant as it shifts from one time period to another. The movie is inspiring and uplifting and a darn good time!

I am a big fan of the documentary genre but I would not have chosen to see this film. I didn't know a great deal about the Topp Twins and I wasn't that interested. I went because my 60 year old mother wanted to see it. I am very glad that she did. I think this is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. I was immediately engaged in the story and I found the Twins themselves to be inspirational. I enjoyed the music, laughed out loud, cried a little and came away feeling a better person simply for having spent an hour and a half with these two wonderful women. And I wasn't the only one who responded in this way. I have never before been to a film where the audience clapped along with the music and applauded at the end as if they were at a live concert. I honestly enjoyed every minute.

Rarely have I been so moved that I roared with laughter, tears obscuring the screen. No-one objected as everyone was also in such a joyous mood. Mind you, there could have been a few tears for the tough times, but somehow these girls just let you enjoy their triumph over adversity. This is a documentary that feels like a good movie script with superb actors. Damn, they are good! How often does one instinctively clap the credits? This is a winner, believe me, no matter where you live. The twins are unique international comedians of the first order and have been directed with the lightest of touches so bringing forth all their artistry. A rare and great combination. Thank you all.

The older I get, the more moved I am by people who perfectly express who they are. The Topp Twins are "New Zealand icons": yodelling lesbian comic singers with (as one show-biz type acknowledges) zero commercial prospects but who are nonetheless approaching three decades into a career as peerless audience-pleasers with perfect entertainment pitch. This film tells the story (including the Topps' key role in the repeal of sodomy laws in NZ just by being more fun than the opposition) with no frills but enormous heart.But wait! You also get: the funniest lesbian joke I've ever heard. (Hope that's not a spoiler)
