Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
With Duplicity [Gilroy is] developing a nice body of work.
Gilroy keeps it all moving at a steady, stylish pace.
Duplicity is an enormously enjoyable hybrid, a romantic comedy set at the center of a caper movie.
It's a passably amusing brainteaser.
