 | GREAT CAST MEMBERS ESPECIALLY WHEN COME DOWN TO EDDIE GRIFFINS & ORLANDO JONES! IT MADE ME LAUGH HYSTERICALLY, MAINLY AT THE BEGINNING WHEN EDDIE/FRED T. WAS DANCING WITH THE HARRY CHRISTIANS (MY MAN WAS BREAK-DANCING)! I ENJOYED HOW HE & ORLANDO/DARRYL C. MET UP. EDDIE/FRED TIFFANY WAS ACTING A FOOL AT THE LA PEARLA PARTY WHEN HE WENT ON STAGE & DID A JAMES BROWN MOVE (TOO FUNNY). GEORGE GALLO GREAT STORY POINT...GALLO MADE SURE THAT HE MADE IT OBVIOUS TO VIEWERS 2 PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO BODY MOVEMENTS & EYE SIGNALS... IF YOU LOOK BACK OR PAYED CLOSE ATTENTION YOU CAN SEE WHO WAS CROOKED FROM THE START... THAT IS WHY G. GALLO CAME UP WITH NAME DOUBLE TAKE!
I WOULD DEFINENTLY RECOMMEND "DOUBLE TAKE" TO ANYONE WITH SIMILAR TASTE! |

| This move was amazing. Eddie Griffin(Freddie) made this movie amazing by his fast-talking and smart mouth. Orlando Jones(Daryl Chase) is the perfect man for the character for which he was portrayed. Combined, the two make a great cast of actors, and made this movie so likeable. However, even at the end of the movie I was left with a few questions about the plot. I could watch this moie over-and-over again non-stop! |

| The first time I saw this movie, I have to admit, I was about to fall asleep. That normally doesn't happen, so I didn't think this movie was my type. However, I rented it again to give it another shot because there were some funny parts. But- Double Take is a thinking person's movie. If you don't have time to think about it and figure it out, theres only a few funny parts. But, if you enjoy movies that make you think and laugh, then try it. It also has a good cast including Orlando Jones, Eddie Griffin and one of my favorite actors- Daniel Roebuck. |

| This movie about a wall street hot-shot named Daryl Chase, and a loud mouth "ghetto recipient" Freddy Tiffany has one of THE STUPIDEST plots you'll ever see. But this movie is just flat out hilarious! Eddie Griffin gives a great performance in this movie, and you'll be laughing till' the very end. Some of the lines are just so funny. Like when Freddy is in Chase' s office and he pretends to be on the phone he says stuff like " a broker is a smoker " and " is that Chloe kitt man I sure like to wax her draws" and as hes being taken out by security he says " hows yo mama we went out " Its a confusing movie but Eddie Griffin saves it. So dont listen to the critics, See this movie you'll like it its very funny! |

| It was HECKA FUNNY....
Some parts just hit my funny bone and I found myself laughing even after the movie ended.
Ok, so not a real deep plot. Rich black business man, Orlando Jones, discovers monies being laundered by a drug dealer through his bank, and in his innocence to clear up the matter and prove that he has nothing to do with it, is thrown into a wild and crazy mix up that gets him involved with the crazy man...Eddie Griffith (who is unbelievable as FBI by the way). I have enjoyed Eddie Griffith's performances since the sitcom Malcom and Eddie. He's a funny man.
This being my first time really seeing Orlando Jones since his 7-up commercials, I was impressed with his acting ability.
For a FUNNY MOVIE it gets my five stars easily. |
