Don’t. Waste. Your. Time.
Tyler Perry’s Duplicity sets itself up as a suspenseful psychological thriller but ends up being a frustrating, incoherent mess that leaves you more confused than intrigued.
From the very beginning, logic takes a backseat.
Let’s start with the basics: the acting. It’s truly abysmal. The performances feel stiff, emotionless, and completely lacking in depth. No one seems to know what they’re doing, and it’s almost as if the actors were directed to overact every moment, especially when it comes to the emotional scenes.
Then there's the terrible script, which is filled with clunky dialogue and zero natural flow
The women in this movie - why do they all have a full face of makeup in every scene, even after a workout? The widow character, in particular, is supposedly grieving and burning his things in one of the film’s more emotional moments, yet her hair is flawless, her fake eyelashes are on point, and her makeup is pristine. It’s like they forgot she’s supposed to be in the middle of a breakdown.
Spoiler Alert Below -
The ending, like everything else in the film, makes little sense. It's a rushed info-dump of “Oh, here’s everything we forgot to tell you, none of it makes sense, but we’re out of time, BYE.”
To name but a few 'makes no sense moments' :
Out of the 12 bathrooms in this man’s sprawling mansion, she somehow manages to pick the exact right one. Not through logic, not through clues, just sheer plot convenience. This is where she find the fully charged phone - that was there for 4 months, still charged even though no-one knew about it.
The “big reveal”: Tony is Kevin. But not Kevin Kevin… a different Kevin entirely. We’re supposed to figure this out from a blurry 30-second phone video you can barely see, and it only gets one throwaway line of explanation at the very end.
The characters begin explaining everything to each other at the end, here's what we did and why, and we would have got away with it if it weren't for....a flare gun, pulled by that lady you drugged who isn't drugged anymore, who heard everything and swims in high heels. To top it off, you’ve got people who carry guns everywhere, walking around fully armed, yet when they’re actually faced with mighty flare gun, nobody pulls theirs. Honestly, what?
It’s as if the script was a jigsaw puzzle made from three completely different boxes. And just when you think you might finally get some clarity, the credits roll, leaving you staring at the screen, wondering what on earth you just watched.

(CASTELLANO) No todas las películas tienen que cambiarte la vida, pero hay algunas que ni siquiera consiguen que aguantes despierto. Duplicidad es una de esas. Se vende como un thriller con mensaje, pero lo único que entrega es una sucesión de escenas planas, sin alma ni rumbo, que ni enganchan ni emocionan.
La sensación general es la de estar viendo una de esas películas de sobremesa de Antena 3, pero sin la gracia involuntaria que a veces tienen. Aquí todo es gris, predecible y mal contado. Ni el guion tiene fuerza, ni los actores parecen creer lo que están diciendo. Hay giros de guion, sí, pero todos llegan tarde y mal, y más que sorprender, confunden o simplemente aburren.
Si alguien te la recomienda, sospecha: o tiene un gusto muy raro o no te quiere mucho. Porque cuesta encontrar algo salvable. Incluso poniéndose generoso, apenas alcanza para pasar el rato. Y eso si estás con fiebre y no encuentras el mando.
En definitiva, una de esas cintas que uno olvida incluso antes de que terminen los créditos.
(ENGLISH) Not every movie has to change your life, but some can’t even keep you awake. Duplicity is one of those. It tries to sell itself as a thought-provoking thriller, but all it delivers is a series of flat, soulless scenes that fail to engage or move you.
The overall feeling is like watching one of those lazy Sunday afternoon TV movies, but without the unintentional charm they sometimes have. Everything here is dull, predictable, and poorly executed. The script lacks punch, and the actors don’t seem to believe a word they’re saying. Sure, there are plot twists, but they arrive either too late or too clumsily, and instead of surprising, they confuse—or worse, bore.
If someone recommends this film to you, be suspicious: either they have really strange taste, or they secretly dislike you. It's hard to find anything redeemable here. Even being generous, it barely qualifies as background noise. And that’s if you have a fever and can’t find the remote.
In short, one of those films you forget before the credits even finish rolling.

Actors were mediocre but the script tells you WHO the killer is from day one! Too many scenes unbelievable such as attorney and boyfriend parked right out in clear plain view with no other houses around right in view of the killer's house and killer "just happens to drive up right in front of them"; this well known attorney REPRESENTING the wife who's had tv press conferences shows up at a seedy hotel to meet journalists and none of them have NO cover with all kinds of people outside the hotel; attorney goes to the restroom in killer's house and runs in heels clunking on marble floor, rambles through drawers are if no one is home making all kinds of noise and then hides phone in her scantily clad pant set of which once knocked out, NO ONE FEELS THE PHONE AS SHE IS CARRIED 100 FEET to a boat....not to mention the attorney is thrown UNDERWATER "WITH A WEIGHT" forever and a day to get herself untied from CHAINS AND A WEIGHT to swim onto the boat and shoot a flame gun into the 3 killers and they NOT hear her🤦🏻♂️and the unbelievable scenes go on and on). Tyler needs to spend more money and GET SOME EXPERIENCED WRITERS! His ONLY movie I liked was "Acrimony" and that was mostly to Taraji Henson playing the heck outta her part.
