'Enemy' is a(nother) good example of pretentious twats left alone with generous financing for fledgling film outfits such as Canada's. It's cool, OK? Those within this review thread crying 'Lynch', for example. I'm cool... I called Lynch. B.S Not sure what's worse: Funding for rubbish such as this film, or the actual film.

This movie was neither suspenseful or scary. It did hold you interest for a bit hoping that something was going to make sense, which it never did right up to the nutjob ending. Take some acid, make a movie, and it will be promoted by Hollywood as a "masterpiece." And every critic will jump on that train so as not to be known as someone who didn't get the art. Crap I say. Jake is a great actor. Why you accept crap movie, Jake? Don't waste your hours on this POS.

Did not like it, I understood what it is about but was exciting as watching a movie on how to tie shoelaces, totally not my kind of "psychological thriller". The $3.4M collected at the box office was probably Jake's pay, everyone else worked for free?

If I could, I'd give this a 5.5 because that more accurately represents my take on this film. I wanted to love it really badly because not only am I a Jake Gyllenhaal fan, but the film take place in my home of both Toronto and Mississauga. I'll admit I was on the edge of my seat and intrigued just waiting to find out how in the hell the writer was going to explain how this was possible, but to my disappointment there is no payoff. The ending is symbolic and despite many theories, there really is no concrete reason for that spider ending. This whole film felt like a fever dream, but it was different so I'll give it that.
