Review of The Double

The Double (2013)
7/10
Jesse Eisenberg is great in this stylish thriller

Warning: Spoilers
This film from Richard Ayoade was a joy to watch due to its stunning visuals. Everything about it looked great and its unique style worked well. It is quite atmospheric and thought provoking with tense thriller music throughout the film. Also nice to see a little cameo from Richard Ayoade's IT Crowd partner, Roy (Chris O'Dowd).

Jesse Eisenberg is great in the lead role. He plays two different characters, they look exactly the same but have completely different personalities.

It is quite a strange film with an interesting premise but ultimately the story overall isn't overly satisfying. It's very well made but I have no desire to watch it again.

I would say its a 7/10.
