Leave your thoughts about Double Whammy.
| Boxoffice MagazineAnnlee EllingsonTries too hard, forcing off-the-wall dialogue where it doesn't belong. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyDespite some funny visual gags, this is one of DiCillo's disappointing comedies, also suffering from an unappealing turn from Elizabeth Hurley. |
| Cinema GothamGil JawetzIt doesn't always mesh perfectly, but DiCillo is working with a broad palette and his ability to mix comedy and drama is shown at full effect. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumJoBloNothing particularly exciting or boring about this movie. |
| Film Freak CentralBill ChambersPerhaps if DiCillo's last two pictures weren't so clever, Double Whammy would stand on its individual merits a little more stably. |

| User ReviewWalter PA slow, witty comedy, Tom DiCillo style. If you like Buschemi and/or DiCillo, you'll like this one, too. If you don't, you won't :) |
