Critics Consensus: With nearly every element ringing as hollow as the ersatz Elvis at the story's core, The Identical looks destined for a bright future on the ironic viewing circuit.

Where is all this going, you ask? Good question.
It's stocked with clichés, but they're arranged in such weird ways that the end result is both predictable and certifiable. If only any of it actually went somewhere.
Connoisseurs of the most wonderfully terrible cinema need to run out and catch this one early and often.
The music is so terrible and it is such a focal point of the film that it was difficult to get past it.
"The Identical" is ultimately too schematically sentimental, even with Liotta playing against type, to have much of an impact.
Trading strictly in visual and narrative cliches, The Identical is so solemn and silly that at times you could swear it was a lampoon.
Too goofy to take seriously and too heavy-handed to dismiss as a so-bad-it-is-good guilty pleasure.
Is it an Elvis movie or a Jesus movie (or a dessert topping or a floor wax)?
There's nothing that stands out about this film besides the music, which is fun and enjoyable, and sadly not enough of it.
The Identical's biggest problem ... is that it substitutes clichéd conflict between corny stock characters like a money-grubbing talent agent and a rooted-in-his-ways minister for real narrative development.
The Identical is a surreal kick to the head, a well-intended ham fest of unintentional comedy that the "Sharknado" guys only wish they could make.
This is [Dustin] Marcellino's first feature and it feels like a nervous first attempt at bringing a production together.
