Siddhant Adlakha Variety Soap opera-like in delivery, yet emotionally sanitized, Tyler Perry’s Prime drama “Duplicity” is a languorous affair. It’s a strange-looking, odd-feeling film that gestures toward mystery and larger conspiracy, but it seldom pulls on these threads. Mar 24, 2025 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media The largely Black cast members are styled as attractive but exaggerated archetypes (the dogged lawyer, the bad cop, the likeable news anchor, the investigative reporter, and so on), and their performances are overstated too. Apr 2, 2025 Full Review Korey Coleman Double Toasted The majority of Tyler Perry's Duplicity is dull and forgettable. The last act becomes a different movie that is insane. Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Joseph Robinson Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Tyler Perry bolsters his filmography with yet another barrage of dumb characters doing nonsensical things while drowning in an inane narrative that takes entirely too long to arrive at its ridiculous conclusion. Rated: 0.5/5 Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) Despite a title featuring a potential Freudian slip, Tyler Perry's Duplicity is yet another nonsensical, inane, instantly forgettable time suck from a filmmaker who disdains films with this latest rush job so arrogantly vapid Perry doesn't seem to.... Rated: .5/5 Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut The most charitable thing I’m willing to say about Tyler Perry’s Duplicity is that it probably won’t end up being the worst movie of the year. Rated: 1.5/5 Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

azeem h I keep thinking one day Tyler Perry will make a decent film as a director. Unfortunately this film is not it. It's quite a shame as there are some talented actors who are unfortunately phoning in their performances or just kind of meh. Some of the acting is pretty terrible if not all of it. Everything delivered slow dramatic pauses, just got me exhausted. The twist wasn't particularly clever and honestly by the time it's comes around you're just mildly interested in it. Watch if you're after something trashy. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/03/25 Full Review Audience Member Kat Graham shines as the lead in pleasantly surprisingly solid Tyler Perry script. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/29/25 Full Review LaMonte B Great guy, just bad at art. They didn't give us a reason to care about the husband; the TV stuff was unrealistic and wrong. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Ian M Very elementary writing and acting on behalf of Tyler Perry. Inconsistency and gaps in the story line. I understand the message, but one could easily understand politics alongside cinema don’t corroborate well. Use Snow White for instance. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Linda P Giving it a 3, surprisingly I was beginning to enjoy it cuz I already had the mindset not to. However, true to TP's writing, the ending was rushed and confusing, too many moving parts. This 3 is generous. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Jade H This movie was terrible, but it’s a Tyler Perry film, so I’m not shocked. The script was horrible, the acting was over the top and unnecessarily dramatic while also being extremely underwhelming, again, not a surprise. I don’t fully blame the actors, I blame the directing as well. The reason being that the vast majority of Tyler Perry’s films are acted the same way. I’m not sure what they’re telling the actors to do on set, but they need to stop. The script was predictable but also had a lot of unnecessary exposition. I think Tyler Perry thinks his audience is stupid, which makes sense, because only an idiot with zero media literacy would think this was a good movie. I only watched it myself to see if I could predict the ending and to see if it was as bad as people were saying. It was much worse. It’s an insult to the art form that Tyler Perry doesn’t care enough about his work to do a halfway decent job. I guess he figures the hard work is over since he’s made his money, and considering his audience is too air headed to see that he’s making a fool of them with these flicks. I guess I can’t really blame him for continuing to churn out these train wrecks. Tyler Perry doesn’t care about filmmaking, he cares about money making, and that’s about it. As long as his slopfests continue to make him a lil bit of cash, he’s gonna keep putting them out. It’s pathetic really, but in 2025 you really can’t expect more from this disaster “artist”.
