Duplicity Review
‘Duplicity‘ is an enormously entertaining Hollywood escapade, cramming in enough upscale locations, narrative switchbacks and romantic intrigue to keep an audience rapt.

MI5 agent Ray Koval (Clive Owen) and CIA operative Claire Stenwick (Julia Roberts) shared a night of passion in 2003 before she double crossed him the next morning. Five years later they cross paths again when they’re both working for corporate CEO Richard Garsik (Paul Giamatti), stealing business secrets from Garsik’s rival Howard Tully (Tom Wilkinson). But it turns out Ray and Claire have their own plan to screw over both companies so they can make off with millions, and each other.
The buzz: Writer-director Tony Gilroy’s follow-up to his critically acclaimed Oscar nominated debut “Michael Clayton” also marks Roberts’ first leading role on screen since 2004’s “Closer” (which happened to co-star Owen in a role that landed him an Oscar nomination). Add in reliable character actors Giamatti and Wilkinson and you seem to have a can’t miss proposition for discriminating adult audiences… [MetroMix]
