ENEMY: 5.7

Well, this movie had one of the things that I love in movies, already baked in. I will not hide my love for Jake Gyllenhaal, but I think I found his worst movie. Denis Villeneuve is a top tier director. I think together this is both of their worst movies ever. The acting is okay, but over the top. No visuals, hard to stay engaged, the plot is very loopy. The issue I had was it had the potential to end with an amazing twist that blew your mind open but it didn’t. It just kinda ended. Props to Jake for playing two roles at once, but they were basically the same person. I also didn’t find the ending to be any thought provoking at all and found it more confusing. I actually googled what the ending meant, I was so confused at what the fuck they were trying to do. If Jakes worst movie is almost a 6, he’s doing things fine. But, I would never watch this movie again. It is slow, does not set up the story great, leaves you confused and you walk away thinking you could have spent your time better shooting hoops in the back yard or gambling on the local MLB team. I think this movie absolutely STINKS.
