Although it's good to see Julia Roberts back, doing something other than an 'Oceans' film, it's not much of a departure really in roles, and she's in danger of being type-cast. Having said that she does do it well and although she has seen better days, it's still great to see her on screen. The film has also gone some way to restoring my faith in Clive Owen. Also will he ever stop looking good in a suit? I think suits were invented, and have evolved over the years, specifically so that Clive Owen can wear them in movies and look that good. It's frustrating. From a males point of view. Anyway, I digress. I thought Duplicity was a smart, funny film, thoroughly enjoyable if taken in your stride.
