A Cold War Themed Movie 20 Years After The End Of The Cold War
This is, at times, a very confusing movie. It can be forgiven for that – because clearly it’s intended to be. The opening scenes of the movie (a group of illegal immigrants apparently attempting to cross into the US from Mexico) are a bit disorienting. They don’t seem to fit with what you expect the movie to be about (I even questioned briefly to myself whether the video store had accidentally packed the wrong movie into the case!) Once it gets going, though, it’s compelling.Basically, the story revolves around the search for the person who assassinated a US Senator, with the prime suspect being a Soviet agent who everyone believed had been killed years before. So – yes – it was an interesting way of bringing back a sort of Cold War theme to a movie made more than 20 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union. There are two experts on this Russian agent known as Cassius: CIA agent Shepherdson (Richard Gere) and FBI agent Geary (Topher Grace). They get put together as a team to try to piece the puzzle together. The first twist to the story comes about a half hour through the movie, which leaves you wondering a bit what the point of the movie is, but there’s a later twist that was (to me, at least) unexpected. It’s pretty well done. Gere and Grace worked pretty well together. I haven’t really seen much of Topher Grace since he was the star of “That 70’s Show.” He’s matured a great deal as an actor.
There are some pretty good action scenes in this, but to its credit the movie doesn’t go overboard on action. It tends to focus mostly on the relationship between Shepherdson and Geary. It’s a pretty decent effort. (7/10)
Introducing the villain.
The fascination for depicting the criminal minds is an endless source of inspiration for studios trying to rise above the cliché that is usually present in most thrillers. And if you choose to unmask the villain at the beginning of the story, something else must hold the viewer’s curiosity until the end.“The Double” goes for the second choice and although I may have spent the rest of the movie trying to figure out what else could make up for the fact that the villain was already exposed, I must say the final surprise didn’t quite do the trick. Richard Gere may still have his charm, but I’m not sure he was the best choice for the character he played. There are some action involved, but in the end this movie feels like a meal that doesn’t taste as good as it looks.
