A guy finds out he has an illegitimate brother, then maybe it’s a twin, and then maybe a clone– oh wait, that takes over an hour to suspect.

Fuck this movie; it’s awful.

Chaos is order yet undeciphered.

• 2:30 — What’s with this audio?

• 5:30 —

  • Dictatorship
  • Bread and circuses

  • Karl Marx [ 1 ]

• 19:00 — And so he contacts the studio to get a contact to the casting director to have their list checked. That person showed his face, and was therefore paid. Just say, and it’s provable, that you suspect you have a twin. Everyone will help with this; it’s cool. Roll credits.

  • Or just check imdb.
  • 19:30 — Or just check the credits. Fine, movie, make it easy.
• 29:15 — Volga Talent Agency is almost certainly fictional.
• 23:00 — Why is everything colored like this? I think The Matrix – (1999 movie) has messed me up.

  • Oh, it would later be revealed to be Saturday.
• 26:30 — I don’t think everyone would know that Mississauga is next to / part of Toronto.

• 30:00 — Did he not clue in that he sounds the same? He talked to the front door guy and everything.

  • “Hi, I wondered if I sound like him, and I think he’s my twin, can we meet?” and then turn this into a quirky romance.
• 35:45 — So she calls the police, says she thinks she has a stalker, hoops are jumped through for muh wahmen.. intriguing mystery movie.

  • 44:45 — “Oh my god I think you have a twin..”

• 53:00 — I wondered if they’d be bringing up his motorcycle ever since it was shown on the website that he had that license.
• 54:45 — That moment was brought to you by Listerine

• 59:15 — Still no plot detected.
• 1:10:00 — Possibly something interesting.

• 1:16:45 — No. I regret watching this movie. It’s awful. It’s fucking beyond awful.
