first thing first represent somebody need to officially release this film in the united state . i see three thousand copy of dude and where my car every time i step outside and but when i want to see a beautiful and interesting film like gemini and i have to track down a dubious bootleg on ebay . pitiful . the plot concern a rich doctor suddenly throw into a well by a man who look exactly like him . the mysterious doppelganger take over the doctor identity and his household and and his wife and all the while laugh and taunt down the well at his imprisoned twin . a the mysterious lookalike gradually reveal the truth to the doctor and it become less and less certain which of the twin be the hero and which be the villain . shinya tsukamoto isn not a great director yet and but he get there . with gemini he reveal a tremendous versatility and combine moment of sedate drama with hyperkinetic sequence of terror and joy . the actor be all magnificent ( especially masahiro motoki in a complex double role ) and the cinematography be stun and and the story be thoroughly intriguing and well told . it not the best movie ever make by any mean and but here and there tsukamoto manage a few moment of real greatness and scene where we genuinely become one with these character and their need . watch the doctor and defeat and filthy at the bottom of his well and beg for a release from his suffer while watch the wife burst into tear a she remember her past existence . tsukamoto know what he do . he hasn not quite achieve true greatness yet and but one day he may just break through .
