Double Take does pack an enjoyable performance by Griffin, but its confusing plot is bogged down by too many characters and unexciting action sequences.... Full review

Apparently some people DIDN'T like this movie, but its hard to see why. While certainly not destined to become a film classic, the miscellaneous plot holes are CERTAINLY no worse than most Hollywood fare, and as an overall movie I... Full review

This movie was very well written. The casting was excellent. Orlando Jones is perfect for the part of Chase, but without Eddie Griffin it would've been not nearly as interesting. Maybe only Martin Lawrence could have come close with Tiffany's role.... Full review

It ain't War & Peace, but Double Take is easy to like and never less than entertaining. While the plot unfolds and unfolds and unfolds, Griffin and Jones move things along with increasingly funny dialogue and a handful of inspired comedic scenes. ... Full Review

the few amusing moments they are able to create here.....a far worse film than "Double Take," mind you, but at least there he wasn't required to rein in his more profane (and more effective) comic instincts.....Eddie Griffin, stand-up comic and star of the defunct UPN sitcom.... ... Full Review

Baffling because "Double Take" is not a badly made or designed film. Unfortunately there's no such easy explanation for "Double Take," a bafflingly unfunny comedy. ... Full Review

Touchstone Pictures calls Double Take "a Trading Places for the new millennium." Sure, it's got a scene on a train, a prince-and-the-pauper switcheroo, a story that's more or less about investment-banking tomfoolery, and even a certain amount of urban edge. ... Full Article
