Summary: Save this one for a rainy day..
Review: From out of nowhere comes "Duplex" a somewhat funny comedy directed by Danny DeVito, it stars Ben Siller and Drew Barrymore. This movie must of had a short life in theaters, because I never even knew of it to be on the big screen. Perhaps I blink'd and missed it. Anyway, I said it was somewhat funny a moment ago, let me explain. It was funny, but only a few scenes were laugh out loud funny. The movie as a whole was more of a crack a smile comedy with an edge. A dark ("wanna murder your sweet faced yet annoying Irish old lady neighbor") kinda comedy with a dash of uninvited satire. If your fans of Stiller or Barrymore the movie will most likely be more enjoyable than if your not. I liked both stars and was on their side the whole time. I'm not going to go over the storyline for you, there are a number of other reviews that do that. I will recommend "Duplex" for a rainy afternoon movie.

Summary: A Good Hearted Funny Movie
Review: This is by no means a hollywood blockbuster, or deserving of an oscar, but a fun movie about a newlywed couple getting the house of their dreams, with the tenant from Hell. I recommend this movie!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dont Waste Your Time
Review: Please don't waste your time or your money on this movie. Luckily, I did not wast my money in the movie theatre on this motion picture. I didn't even waste my money at the movie rentals, but that's besides my point because I wasted my time. If I could give this movie an infinite amount of negative stars, believe me I would. Giving it one star is bad enough. This movie shouldn't even be rewarded one star, let alone five. What seems like a seemingly funny movie about a little old lady who gives her tenants hell turns out to give the viewer hell instead. I laughed two times, but even then it was a forced laugh. Sure it is funny when the little old lady is choking on a chocolate, or when a hit-man is hired to kill her off, but not funny enough to spend twenty dollars on. There was no substance and a lack of humor, which I am disappointed about. The old lady asking for help is just too much to handle. If you have had to deal with living with an old grandma who wants her grandson to do everything for her, no matter what the task is or what the time is, then you pretty much have seen the movie and do not want to relive the experience. If you are the type of person who gets irritated quickly, I strongly do not recommend this movie. For all the people who give movies a chance, this is an exception. If you want to see some real Ben Stiller comedy, rent Something About Mary and Meet the Parents. Trust me, this movie was a waste of my time and don't let it be a waste of your money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Entertaining
Review: This was a cute and entertaining movie. It was nice to see a movie that did not contain vulgar language or too much sex!!!!!

Summary: Lame
Review: Not as cool as the hype. There is a reason this went quickly to video without much hype. I like Devito and Stiller but this just was not that great of a comedy it was simply average and I expected more given all the prais reviewers have given it.

Rating: 2 stars
