Enemy (2013)
Directed by Denis
Villeneuve this film inspired by the novel The Double by Jose Saramago
stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Melanie Laurent and Sarah Gadon. A history
professor discovers there is an actor that looks exactly like him and
becomes obsessed with meeting him.
Leaving behind a web
of confusion this film offers little in the way of explanation
leaving you scratching your head which is good or bad depending on
what you like. Interpreting this slow burning, Kafka style film might
not even be possible but it is certainly interesting and unnerving to
say the least. The performance from Gyllenhaal is really good and you
will find yourself asking plenty of questions after seeing this film.
5/5
