The Duel

Masterfully shot. Great acting by a superb cast. Awesome sound. Innovative plot line for sure! And the complex ending toys with one's emotions. Funny and horrifying at the same time.

Warburton is phenomenal. Sprouse and Macaullife provide nuanced believable characters. Guttman is glorious. At any given point, any member of this large cast is doing the heavy lifting of carrying the movie!

Set in California and Mexico, with mysterious and opulent settings, this film was shot almost entirely in Indiana by up and coming Pigasus Pictures!

If you want to catch it on the big screen... it'll be on 500 screens nationwide on July 31 only! (Followed by a smaller number of theatres for a longer run). Will be a bit before it's streaming.

So put on your tux with tails and white tie (like the characters), grab a red Solo cup, and get to a theatre soon!

I was lucky enough to attend the premier in Indy. Knowing little about the plot, I was surprised by how much humor and heart was in this dark comedy. Warburton is fantastic in everything, and he shines alongside the younger cast members. The leads bring a lot of gravity to some of the more surreal plot lines, and there's a lot of tongue in cheek moments that play well to anyone who lives in Indiana and knows the landmarks where this was filmed. I highly recommend this film to anyone who enjoys indie films. It's smart, fun and you leave it feeling like you've had a great time with your crazy friends.

There are several reasons that I thoroughly enjoyed The Duel.

The storyline is solid and thought provoking. The cast of characters delivered this humourous dark story cleverly and intensely.

The film is stocked with unanticipated comedic situations and dialogue.

I am drawn to stories where morality and personal principles are battling the need for exact retribution. Its very amusing.

Hats off to the Creators, Cast, Pigasus Pictures and their on set crew, the cinematographers, lighting, costumes, and post production.

After seeing The Duel in the city with my favorite people, I am looking forward to seeing it again & adding The Duel to our physical movie collection.

At first I was hesitant to give this movie the time of day given the poor score. Now, I am glad I did, and what a time well spent! The story is built on a simple idea that unwound masterfully from beginning to end. There is no over-the-top action scene, no flashy CGIs, no pretentious idealistic message, or downright propaganda that plagues Hollywood today. It offer fun entertainment and that is IT! Kudos to the surprisingly talented and underrated actors here. Their characters were all charmingly unique that I was easily invested in what their outcome would be. And, the awsome musical score is the juicy cherry on top. At any rate, don't take my word for it. Watch and decide for yourself.

The Duel is a brilliant dark comedy about two best friends trying to settle an argument. This film is a perfect combination of dark humor, comedy, and drama. The performances are incredible and really have you fully engaged with these characters and their story. Denton, Love, and Warburton will have your sides hurting from laughter! The script is layered with commentary on friendship, love, heartbreak and will. Justin Matthews and Luke Spencer Roberts truly are a dynamic writing duo to keep an eye out for! It's nothing short of a good time. You will most definitely have fun watching this. It will not disappoint!
