sree-howlett Double Take is nothing but a great movie. I first saw the movie in flight. And guess what, I saw it all 3 to 4 times, before the flight landed in LAX (from Asia). Eddie Griffin and Orlando Jones, such great actors who put up one hell of a performance. They became their respective characters which is why the movie turned out to be great. Every part of the movie is a double take, something's going on and you might/may not miss it or you wouldn't know whom to believe. So you clearly experience what Daryl Chase (Orlando Jones) is going through. Over all, the movie is brilliant, if you are looking for quality action and comedy then this is a must own (DVD) or you can always rent it (but the movie deserves a lot better than a rent). I have the DVD since 2004. And been watching it often, till today.George Gallo is awesome incarnate. This man is the brainchild behind some of the massive action/comedy/adventure/crime/thriller genre movies. MIDNIGHT RUN and BAD BOYS to mention.

jeremy3 I really like Orlando Jones and Eddie Griffin. Orlando Jones was hilarious in MAD TV, and Eddie Griffin has such character. The movie was at times a little wandering, but basically the two comic actors held it together. There was a lot of social commentary beneath the plot. First of all, there was both race and class. The movie showed through the differences in class between the two main characters, that they are treated very differently. One is a banker (Jones). While the other character (Griffin) appears to be a street hustler. The movie showed that the two could learn to get along with each other, despite their different personalities, and to find out the truth. The movie was pretty funny, but at the same time showed how racial/class politics really work with a pretty good degree of accuracy.

Ozyre Cekda Whenever this movie comes on Starz, I try to watch it (you know, to be open-minded) and I always end up turning the channel. The plot: stupid (hell, was there ever one!). Eddie Griffin's character was so blatantly annoying and unnecessarily ignorant. He would've made a great understudy for either Amos and Andy or Steppin and Fetchin. Take your pick. His performance was a send up of the typical minstrel characters from the 30's and 40's. As bafoonish as he was in the movie, it's so incredibly hard to believe that his character is ***SPOILER*** actually some sort of FBI agent. Orlando Jones was okay. He has the potential for greatness, he just needs to be more wise in choosing roles. But hey, for $500,000 I probably would've starred in this jackass of a movie too.

Threeman Director George Gallo penned MIDNIGHT RUN, one of the very best action / buddy-buddy pictures ever to have graced our screens. More than ten years on, and this feels like an ill-advised and incredibly anaemic imitation. The lead characters here are marginally appealing, but as the script races on at breakneck speed and virtually collapses under the number of twists, they are given precious room to develop and engage our sympathies. It all feels so very daft and inconsequential in the final analysis. A time-filler at best, but in the context of MIDNIGHT RUN, also a considerable letdown.
