YMMV / Double Jeopardy

Go To

  • Critical Dissonance: Critics largely dismissed the film as a nonsensical, by-the-numbers thriller. General audiences were a bit more accepting, seeing it as predictable in places and occasionally silly but otherwise entertaining.
  • Critic-Proof: Reviews weren't great, but box office returns were. And it was one of the most watched films on Netflix in 2020.
  • They Copied It, So It Sucks!: Many reviews compared the film to The Fugitive and not in a flattering way. It has a similar premise of the protagonist being wrongly accused of murdering their spouse and going on the run to clear their name with Tommy Lee Jones in pursuit, but many feel Double Jeopardy doesn't pull it off quite as deftly as The Fugitive.
