Movie Reviews

Cinemole - 10/10 by Alistair RyderOnly a truly talented filmmaker can take an oft-told story and make it feel original. By succeeding, Ayoade establishes himself as one of the best filmmakers in Britain today.
The Guardian - 10/10 by Henry BarnesThe Double isn't an original idea. It wasn't even in Dostoyevsky's time. But it's a great story. And Ayoade has produced a brilliant copy.
Screen International - 10/10 by Allan HunterThe Double does offer some dark amusement along the way but is more likely to baffle than beguile.
Indiewire - 9/10 by Eric KohnThe story arrives at a satisfying emotional conclusion with wonderfully thoughtful ramifications.
The Playlist - 9/10 by Kevin JagernauthTotally bonkers, hilarious and wickedly clever, The Double is special and singular filmmaking at its best.
Salon.com - 9/10 by Andrew O'HehirAs a pure head-trip visual and auditory experience it feels like one of the biggest discoveries, and biggest surprises, of 2014.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Betsy SharkeyIt is the interplay between Wasikowska and Eisenberg that gives "The Double" both its tension and its charm... Their struggle captivates, the resolution shocks, and you can't help but wonder what windmills Ayoade will tilt next.
NPR - 9/10 by Bob MondelloThis workplace-as-hellscape is not new territory, exactly — the story's based on Dostoevsky, plays like Kafka, and looks like an Orwellian nightmare. But who'd complain, since it lets Jesse Eisenberg offer what amounts to an acting master-class.
RogerEbert.com - 9/10 by Sam FragosoWithout being masturbatory or drowning in emulation of "Brazil", he manages to craft a harmonious confluence of hypnotizing panache and wry wit.
Compuserve - 9/10 by Harvey S. KartenA nightmarish tale with considerable comic undertones about a nebbish who imagines life as a bon vivant.
