For someone who wanted to pick up my feet and run out of the cinema during that first scene in the car, I ended up enjoying the film. In fact, if Kohák had been silent the entire time during those first few minutes, it would have been funnier. Believe it or not, before the transformation, the life of a teacher and his music-playing wife was a lot funnier than that of the thief Simona herself wants to get into the yoke. After the transformation, it's fun on both fronts. Sokol is having a blast and comes across as a natural. Etzler scores points too, giving me probably one of the biggest fits of laughter since I was a teenager. I'm just not sure about Nárožný. A stronger 3 stars. (02/04/2016)

J'aime bien Monsieur Nárožný, mais lui confier un rôle de dangereux mafieux était l'erreur de casting de l'année. Sinon, la réalisation et le scénario ne peuvent être décrits que comme de l'amateurisme. Tout, des performances d'acteurs au montage et à la musique, est désolant et je ne peux penser à rien que je puisse souligner comme étant même légèrement positif. Peut-être Messieurs Čtvrtníček et Šteindler. Mais leurs quelques minutes de présence ne peut sauver la situation que difficilement. (22/12/2016)

Je m’attendais à un film de divertissement et c’est exactement ce à quoi j’ai eu droit. J’ai pas mal ri et, bien que Dvojníci n’échappe pas à certaines maladresses, j’en ressors avec une impression générale positive. Le thème des sosies et de la confusion d'identités est idéal pour le genre comédie, donc avec un minimum de compétence, il y a moyen d'obtenir un succès. J’aime bien Ondřej Sokol surtout pour ses prestations théâtrales au Club dramatique de Prague, mais il se défend plutôt bien dans les films et comédies également. J’évalue Dvojníci à trois étoiles et demie, mais comme j’ai passé un excellent moment, je vais arrondir vers le haut. (29/10/2016)

This seems to be an authentic Czech controversial film because the ratings of the users I follow cover almost the entire scale. A one-star rating was missing, but I quickly fixed that, and now it's complete. The humor was there, but the creators pushed it too much, to the point of wearing it thin. However, there were still moments here and there that made me laugh, so the film wasn't a complete flop, even though the screenwriter tried. Jakub Kohák has become a symbol of low quality for me; however, Ondřej Sokol balanced the situation. I didn't like him until recently, but I have become quite fond of his cheeky face. / "Those who won't bring anything tomorrow won't see the Big Bang." / Lesson learned: If you want to see mind triumph over matter, you will like this film.

It's neither fatty nor salty, but it's actually quite an average comedy that just shows we don't have many good ideas for stories anymore, this is pretty cliché, but we still have a sense of humor and there is definitely something to laugh at in this film. Koháka is sometimes a bit too much, but here his stupidity is quite fine. (30/11/2016)
