Ameaça Dupla

I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the entertaining movie. I was worried it was going to be yet another awful movie (like "Guns of Eden", but this was generally very well done with great dialogue and execution of the dialogue.

Yes, there were gaps regarding where all the bad guys were coming from and did they all have the same Ford Raptor black-colored trucks or were they always using the same one. It bothered me to see one of the AR15 rifles without any rear sight or carry-handle sight attached. The crime boss father looked a lot one of the Weather Channel meteorolists, without being that guy. The end between the crime boss and son seemed out of context or just a wasted ending and scene. I really liked the performances of characters Natasha, Jimmy, Ellis, and Ask along with, again, the dialogue.

Fighting scenes were generally very well executed other than that AR15 rifle sight issue I already noted. (Armorers/directors, please don't leave out details like that by shooting the scene anyway without a rifle's rear sight. Armorers, bring a spare sight or entire complete firearm.

Olivieri, I've a question for you, but it can wait for some other time or other platform (regarding the mole).

Garbage movie, feels like a really low budget movie. Acting is okay, story is below subpar. Many things in the movie do not make sense. Many loose ends. Horrible dialogues. Don't waste your time watching this.

I think anyone rating this movie 5+ are fake or paid.

Jimmy (Matthew Lawrence) is taken with convenience store clerk Natasha (Danielle C. Ryan). Suddenly, she's super-fighting a kill squad. She had stolen from a criminal mob and they are coming after her.

Ryan is not as funny as she thinks she is. She does have some charms. She is better than this movie. She is a hot chick who can kick. I did not recognize Matthew Lawrence although it's not like he's my favorite or anything. He is supposed to be an accountant. This would work better if he's dressed as a nerd. The writing is rather clunky despite being a simple premise. The split identity could have been interesting, but the acting is limited. This is a B-action flick with various limitations.

Suspend belief, enjoy the good dialogue, ignore the bad. The fight scenes were pretty decently done, reminiscent of Natasha Romanoff I thought. But the sex scene - really? In these days of freely available porn which is so much better (I'm told) these sorts of semi-modest scenes are a bit cringeworthy.

"Double Threat" had both an interesting cover/poster and synopsis, which made me sit down and watch this movie. I hadn't even ever heard about this movie from writer CJ Walley and director Shane Stanley, so I didn't know what to expect.

And there were aspects of the movie that proved interesting enough, but over all as a movie then it just failed to be overly enjoyable or entertaining. It was because of the majority of the storyline just felt irrelevant and pointless, and that made for a lousy viewing experience.

I wasn't familiar with the cast in "Double Threat", but they actually put on good enough performances despite of having little to work with in terms of script and storyline. And I will say that lead actor Matthew Lawrence (playing Jimmy) and Danielle C. Ryan (playing Natasha) were nicely cast for the movie.

If you enjoy a good action movie, then "Double Threat" is not really the best of choices. But hey, maybe this movie is just what tickles you in the all the right places.

My rating of "Double Threat" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
