The poster made me think this would be like Scarface.


Anyone look at the poster and think the Devil's Double would be like Scarface? This was a very good film, I just thought going in that it would be ultra violent like Scarface, plus I already knew Uday's story, and he was so over the top crazy that I just thought Tony Montana in Iraq.

I thought it was far more violent than scarface, it's been a while since I saw scarface, but the only violent part I remember was the chainsaw part.

funny, i thought this was exactly like Scarface. In fact I was reminded of that film constantly as I watched "Devil's double." and I found the violence in this one to be nauseating, and brutal.

Seeing the poster made me really want to see this movies. After watching it, though, I am disappointed the movie did not live up to the hype of the poster.

ner 98 excellent point, even though the film was good, the poster made you believe that you were in for a non stop action film with a lot of violence. I give the film a b-.

There are definitly similarities, both about narcissistic pieces of crap and both take place in the 80's

The plan is you drink a nice tall glass of shut the *beep* up.
