Critics Consensus

Despite a good performance by Orlando Jones, the movie is ruined by a ridiculous, messy plot and fails to generate laughs.

I share the same dream with anyone entering into the crypto market, to make great profit and live the best of life. I met with a crypto broker specialist on Quora, we engaged in conversation, checked his review score and it was all great. I was given three packages to choose from, Amateur, Silver, and Gold Premium. I went for Gold since I won't be doing much work besides monitoring my profits. Beginner's startup amount was $5k which I did invest in quickly, within 5 hours I had not less than half a quarter million dollars in my investment account. That enticed me, and I hurriedly invested more, within 5 days, I had invested $385,000.00. Unfortunately, I had invested in a fake trading platform and was on the verge of losing almost half my retirement savings. It got to a point that after much pleading to this trader to give me even half of my initial investment amount instead, he kept insisting I pay more. I had already given up because it would be foolish of me to keep fetching water in a basket. Luck ran on me when I came across scammed victims of Cryptocurrency, Forex, and Binary trading. and how they have been able to recover their stolen money back. I did follow up on their conversation and realized it was all the good handwork of Cyber Genie Hack Pro. I got their contact info: and with all honesty, I will never regret reaching out to them, I will remember it as the day I was given birth again. Cyber Genie helped me recover my stolen money back within the short period of time I consulted them. They restored my smile and my financial stability by recovering all that was in my trading account without leaving a penny for those scammers.

Very funny movie. They try to switch clothes and become each other so one can escape the cops. It's just hilarious cause they try to take on each other's personality too.

Funny comedy with a lot of mindblowing twists and turns. Eddie Griffin as Freddy Tiffany was the person that made this movie amazing. His way of making the script funny made me laugh every time. Orlando Jones as Daryl Chase also played his role outstanding.

Double Take is so convoluted, so unnecessarily mind-boggling, it should be called Quintuple Take.
