Console best movie i've ever seen.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
john in missouri If you look at it as, a regular guy had a couple thousand bucks and wanted to produce his own TV-movie-type science-fiction thriller, then it's not a total waste.In fact, I'll agree with others that it all began with a decent premise. But it quickly went downhill from there.Don't waste your time with this one. The acting is below average, the script is below average, the plot is below average, the directing and execution are below average, even the sound quality is below average. Like others, I was fooled by the cover...Incidentally, virtually nothing happens during the entire first half of the movie. Yes, folks, it's that bad.I want to be sympathetic, but honestly I'm stretching to give it a 3 out of 10. It's one of the most unwatchable movies I've ever seen. Sorry.
Claudio Carvalho In Los Angeles, the journalist Karen Addams (Tiffany L. Paige) is investigating a mysterious case happened twenty years ago, when the owner of the Mansfield Theater, Kyle Mansfield (Harold Cannon), shot twice with a shotgun, killed his dog, and he was found covered of his own blood, but without any injure. She convinces her editor to have an interview with Kyle, who is bankrupted. Kyle gives a key of a room to her and says that he is the watcher of the place. Karen decides to open the door, and sooner she finds that somebody is using her identity, efficiently working for her and living at her place. She is promoted in her job when the criminal Greg Johnson (Trey Hardy) is arrested with her apparent support, but she claims she had never seen him before. When Greg meets her, she realizes that apparently they have been duplicated, and their evil doubles have opposite personalities."Deuces" is a low budget movie with very promising story that keeps the attention with the duplication mystery but the development is weak and the conclusion is a great deception. When the mystery is disclosed, the explanation is very silly; when the doubles are eliminated, the resolution is simply corny and conventional. I regret that the director / author has been so commercial and careless with the conclusion of his screenplay, otherwise "Deuces" could have been a great film. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Dublê do Medo" ("Double of the Fear")
gazineo-1 First of all, it's hard to define in which genre (horror, sci-fi, thriller?) we could insert 'Deuces', because the movie worked all the time with some elements of all these kind of movies but with an absolute incompetence. The story of a woman who suddenly discover that she has a double, a twin 'persona', living by her side and doing odd things - including violent acts and even murder - is not a novelty. In fact, you must remember 'Doppelganger', with Drew Barrymore, another bad movie with the same theme. And that is all the story here, punctuated with some not gripping moments of shooting, cold blood murders and eerie scenes, especially the scenes taken at the Mansfield theater, the place where the doubles seems to appear after twenty years of interval. It's very difficult to be awaken during the movie, because you'll find that the problem here is not just a problem that affects the lady in distress, the journalist Karen Adams (played with a wood faced performance by Tiffany Paige. The movie tells us a story about an evil double creature with double boring style. A complete waste of time.
lovehorses I was actually in pain while watching this movie. It made little sense, and the acting was not by any means good. How it got a 4.2 rating is beyond me. I thought that it would be good judging by the cover. I soon found out that they spent all their money on the cover and therefore couldn't have a decent script. Thats makes about as much sense as the rest of the movie ie. none. Avoid at all costs!! 0 out of 4 stars. I would rather sit though a Power Rangers/Gigli/Glitter movie fest for the rest of my life than see this movie again.
