WARNING: SPOILERS GALORE. Directorial debut for Michael Brandt, who wrote 2 Fast 2 Furious and Wanted, and adapted 3:10 to Yuma. Opens September 23, 2011.
In THE DOUBLE, the mysterious murder of a US senator bearing the distinctive trademark of the legendary Soviet assassin “Cassius,” forces Paul Shepherdson (Richard Gere), a retired CIA operative, to team with rookie FBI agent, Ben Geary (Topher Grace), to solve the crime. Having spent his career chasing Cassius, Shepherdson is convinced his nemesis is long dead, but is pushed to take on the case by his former supervisor, Tom Highland (Martin Sheen). Meanwhile, Agent Geary, who wrote his Master’s thesis on Shepherdson’s pursuit of the Soviet killer, is certain that Cassius has resurfaced. As Shepherdson and Geary work their way through crimes both past and present, they discover that Cassius may not be the person they always thought him to be, forcing both to re-examine everything and everyone around them.

I hate how trailers are now ruining big twists in upcoming movies. This one and the new Daniel Craig movie ‘Dream House’ both give away a sweet twist in the trailer. That would be like if the trailer for ‘The Usual Suspects’ gave away who Kaiser Soze was. Stupid stupid people.

The one good thing that the script probably had going for it … and they blow their wad right there in the lobby?

This looks kind of like if they took Kaufman’s fake movie from Adaptation, The Three, and made it into a real movie.

I love thrillers like this. If done right, this could be a modest hit.
