Enemy (2013) - 90 min

Country: Canada
Director: Denis Villeneuve
Cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Mélanie Laurent, Sarah Gadon & Isabella Rossellini.
Adam Bell is a history professor who follows the same routine of his daily lifestyle without doing much. His colleague recommended him a movie and In the evening he decides to watch it. One of the actors in that movie looks exactly like him and he wants to meet him personally.
"Chaos is order yet undeciphered". Like the two sides of a coin, it follows the same principle of good and evil or reality and fantasy. The background score from Bernard really makes you entirely stuck into the story. Even though Villeneuve gives you many clues at crucial points, still he misleads you into elsewhere. Gyllenhaal, the versatile actor portraits two entirely different roles with a calm and vicious personality. Overall, it's a mind blowing psychological thriller movie with a final trademark scene of Villeneuve.
Verdict: Good
