Duplicity

2009 · 2h 5m · Romance, Comedy, Crime

IMDb 6.1 Metacritic 69 RT 65%

Skip it. Duplicity is a convoluted corporate espionage rom-com that tries to be clever but gets bogged down in its own twisty plot, and despite Julia Roberts and Clive Owen's charm, the chemistry can't save a movie that can't decide if it wants to be funny, romantic, or thrilling.

Plot

Two romantically involved government operatives Claire Stenwick and Ray Koval team up to manipulate a race between opposing corporations to corner the market on a medical innovation that will reap huge profits and allow them to lead an extravagant lifestyle together. They find themselves on opposing sides as corporate spies; however, as they each try to outdo the other, neither one can decide how far to trust the other in this high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse.

Director: Tony Gilroy
