    • Alternate versions
      The Miramax US version features new English dubbing, music, and is cut by approximately 15 minutes from the original Hong Kong release. Missing scenes include, but not limited to the following:
      • Tyson decides to call Barbara before he and Boomer leave for the mainland. Boomer remarks that Tyson doesn't have her number but this doesn't bother him as he produces a phone book.
      • In the hospital scene, the henchmen bring in a "healer" to try and cure their boss. The healer only succeeds in creating chaos and fed up, the doctor (Lau-Kar Leung in a hilarious cameo) "thunder-punches" him into a wall.
      • During the scene where John is showing Barbara how to play the piano, she has a dream sequence where she is singing a Cantopop song to a receptive audience.
      • Rocky mistakes John for Boomer and begs him to take him on as his student. Trying to get rid of him, John tells Rocky to go "buy a piano" to "stengthen his fingers".

    In 1991 Jean Claude Van-Damme played separated twins in "Double Impact." The two were from different worlds and different countries, the only real difference between "Double Impact" and "Twin Dragons" is that in "Double Impact" both twins could fight.

    In "Twin Dragons" a set of twins get separated as babies. One baby was taken to the U.S. to be raised where he became a world reknown pianist and orchestra conductor. The other baby stayed in Hong Kong where he learned to fight and was always running afoul of the law.

    The two came together in Hong Kong when Ma Yau (the American raised twin) had a performance in Hong Kong. With the two in the same place at the same time all kinds of comedic mix-ups occurred.

    "Twin Dragons" could've been better had the plot been a little less convoluted and the subtitles slower. These were the fastest subtitles I've ever seen. The movie wasn't quite as acrobatic or creative as the last Jackie Chan movie I'd seen titled, "Operation Condor." That one was directed by Jackie and he had a big hand in the fight choreography as well. "Twin Dragons" is not bad, just not up to level I began to expect from Jackie by the 90's.
