Movie Reviews
A fairly astute comedy. The laughs come not from jokes so much as sharp jabs of truth (…) Stearns keeps the surprises coming.
Peter Debruge: Variety
This is definitely a ‘wavelength’ film: you either get on board with the heightened choices early, or you’ll be distracted all the way through.
Ben Pearson: SlashFilm
[It] bears an outstanding premise and mixed execution (…) [It moves] forward without having much of an emotional jolt. ‘Dual’ instead finds comedy and sweetness in its smaller moments.
