Although Existentialism is out of fashion these days, I think a lot of people will be able to identify with Simon's plight in this film. It works as both absurdest comedy and as social commentary.

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

Despite its pleasures, the film proves ultimately little more than an echo, forgoing a thorough exploration of its themes for a more literal approach that treads close to lip service.

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.

Bleak dark comedy about contemporary urban alienation.

"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.

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

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

"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.

Most of the time, "The Double" feels less like watching a book than reading a movie.

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

The Double invites second looks and close examination. As Simon finds when peering into mirrors, what we see is often unexpected.
