Gallo has delivered a clever suspense comedy that, thanks to a taut script, creative direction, and first-rate performances from its leads.

Double Take is the kind of double-triple-reverse movie that can drive you nuts because you can't count on anything in the plot.

Roger Moore Orlando Sentinel (Top Critic)

It's too violent, too muddled and too pat to be much more than an average evening's entertainment on UPN.

Geoff Pevere Toronto Star (Top Critic)

Piling double-cross upon deception at a speed that quickly outpaces the audience's interest in what's happening.

Andrew O'Hehir Salon.com (Top Critic)

If you doze or play your GameBoy for an hour or so in the middle of the movie, you might find it an agreeable time-waster.

As if to compensate for this lack of focus, all the spats are enacted at maximum volume, pitched so high that we often don't know how to take them.

I think Double Take would have worked much better as a simple buddy comedy, without trying to have the plot of a serious thriller.

About the best thing that can be said for Double Take is that the morning after seeing it you don't really remember much about it.

Suffers from a scattershot approach to rapid-fire jokes that usually miss their mark, though Griffin's comedic talents brighten the proceedings and Jones does his part to add his own flavor to the mix.

Not quite a dog of a movie, but it's certainly not worth barking about.

Tony Toscano Talking Pictures (U.S.)

Webster's Dictionary defines the word bad as: 'the opposite of good.' After seeing the film -- I am sure Webster will add Double Take to its definition.

Very slim pickin's.

Cynthia Fuchs Philadelphia City Paper

Irreverent and silly, it careens between being a not-very-suspenseful thriller and a broadly slapstick comedy.

Double Take is proof that we've taken the performer-as- entertainment train to the end of the line.
