Ayoade has crafted a smart, high-concept puzzler with a keen sense of comedic timing and a fine cast littered with familiar faces.

Bleak dark comedy about contemporary urban alienation.

"The Double" is a striking piece of work, but it's nostalgic for a kind of paranoia that may no longer exist. There are different things to frighten us now.

Ayoade brilliantly pulls off his film's mix of queasy paranoia and off-kilter comedy.

There are many hilarious gags and performances (the TV show within the film is spectacular), but the film is also full of devastatingly sad moments of loneliness that will leave you feeling like a wooden Pinocchio.

The Double doesn't get very deep, but it does get interesting.

The film's bleakness is almost satirical. It's Brazil drained of the daydreams.

"The Double" has a theatrical, self-conscious quality to it; the performances feel stagy and its production design looks like a grimly monotone Wes Anderson movie.
