Tomatometer rating: 82%Gross: $1.7 million Somehow, Richard Ayoade's relatively star-less Welsh coming-of-age drama Submarine did better business ($3.8 million) than his follow-up. That would be The Double, a more star-studded affair (Jesse Eisenberg, Mia Wasikowska, Chris O'Dowd, plus the returning Submarine cast) that got a much bigger promotional push than his first. The Double's lack of financial success could be down to the fact that even the jaunty trailers couldn't mask the film's highbrow aspirations: this was a dark comedy, based on a novel by Dostoyevsky, that looked like it'd taken inspiration in visual oppressiveness from Terry Gilliam's Brazil. It's still an excellently made and thought-provoking film, though, and in a twin role - a downbeat office worker and his cooler, rebellious doppelganger - Jesse Eisenberg is at the top of his game. It's not the funniest comedy ever made (it's best to think of it as a satire in the vein of Orson Welles's The Trial), but it is captivating and visually striking all the same.
