Double Take (2001)
Not very funny, but it was entertaining
14 August 2001
It had its moments that were genuinely funny, but there was not a whole lot of knee-slapping going on in this flick. It's entertaining, as some of the plot twists had even a movie veteran such as myself confused at times. Eddie Griffin is funny, but he doesn't sell as a sensitive caring undercover FBI agent. Orlando Jones doesn't sell as the "Uncle Tom" type which is originally portrayed in the beginning on the movie. He holds that persona for maybe the first 5 minutes of the movie, but it completely disappears after that. It's not a non-stop laugh riot with no plot or acting, which is one would expect when they see Griffin and Jones are the stars, but it has its moments. It won't win any awards, but I was not disappointed. But it's genuinely entertaining although you won't be rolling around on the floor.
