Duplex
Dream Home. Nightmare Neighbor!
Stars Ben Stiller (Meet The Parents) and Drew Barrymore (Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle) in a hilarious comedy CNN calls "deliciously funny." Danny DeVito directed this comedic tale about a young couple and their elderly tenant whose resilience brings the new homeowners much more than they bargained for!

If you've ever had a neighbour from hell, or ever been a landlord to a problem tenant, then you'll enjoy this movie.
The film starts off with a very nicely-done animated cartoon that depicts all the hopes and aspirations of young house-hunters. Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore are perfect playing the idealistic and unsuspecting young couple who buy a character home in a nice neighbourhood just outside Manhattan. The only hitch is the eccentric, noisy, annoying old biddy who lives above them as a tenant, only pays $88/month and causes them no end in grief. Like so many neighbour or landlord/tenant feuds, things start off very civilized but quickly turn to rage and homicidal impulses as the tension escalates. The film handles the scenario with lots of gags and humour and it ends with a nice surprise twist.
If you've ever found yourself with a problem tenant you can't get rid of, there's no need to try and evict or even murder them, the best solution is to renovate the hell out of their apartment until they get fed up and move. Guaranteed to work every time!Good stuff - Allo

I knew when I added Duplex to my ziplist that this wasn't going to be a great comedy on the lines of 40-year-old virign or Wedding Crashers, but everyone needs a little laugh every now and then, and that's what Duplex offers. It's not a horrible comedy, and it's more dark than low brow and one can't help but give sympathy to the young couple.
A great movie to show to your friends who are looking to buy their first home.
