The Devil's Double is a fantastic film that features a central performance so compelling, you'd be foolish to look away even for a second.January 26, 2012
Never develops into anything beyond a concept.August 11, 2011
The hero of "The Devil's Double" may get upstaged by the villain, but that's not exactly bad news for star Dominic Cooper, since he plays both parts.October 21, 2011
Some of the cruelty in the film is hard to stomach, but frighteningly believable.June 22, 2013
Cooper is great, in a great part. But for an actor, not for his audience.November 23, 2011
...a sporadically intriguing yet disastrously undercooked thriller.September 07, 2011
I'm not sure what it all adds up to, but The Devil's Double puts its hooks in you and keeps them there.January 14, 2013
Dominic Cooper is bloody brilliant.August 09, 2011
Even more tasteless than its main character's gold 'n' marble palace.September 01, 2011
Equally as offensive as the movie's smorgasbord of smut and violence is the lingering whiff of colonial-era orientalism, a Western predilection for regarding Eastern cultures as innately idle, lascivious, irrational, and thus ripe for intervention.November 17, 2011
Despite numerous pluses - Lee Tamahori's vigorous direction, handsome cinematography, outstanding production design, an impressive dual performance by Dominic Cooper as Uday and Latif - the film is more wearying than entertaining.August 17, 2011
It is a ghastly, riveting, dazzling piece of work.
