Double Dare Trailers

With being thrown off buildings an occupational hazard, professional stuntwomen Jeannie Epper and Zoë Bell (the alter egos of Wonder Woman and Xena, respectively) would seem well-equipped for any challenges Hollywood might dish out. But finding roles -- and respect -- in a male-dominated field can prove more harrowing than dodging punches.

What a great movie! These two women, Jeannie Epper and Zoe Bell, are some awesome ladies and the movie is truly inspiring. It's great that a movie like this exists for people, like me, to get a hint of what life is like for women in an underrated career such as the one of hard working talented stunt women. They are a talented few who represent the bigger picture of what it's like to be a woman in a career that is male based. Miss Jeannie and Miss Zoe make it possible for us to believe the danger that exists in the stories written for two of the most strongest woman heroes on TV. They help us feel what is happening to the characters they play, and since it's their job not to get noticed, and they do their job so well, it's easy to not realize that these stunt women doubles exist! So again, I am very happy to have seen this film about them. They are great!

Director Micheli weaves a compelling story of two stunt women from different generations that's gripping, funny and a unique story you're not going to see anywhere else. I highly recommend this fast paced fascinating documentary. Jeannie Epper and Zoe Bell really pour their hopes and dreams out. Quentin Tarantino and Steven Spielberg make an appearance because they care about what stunt women bring to the table. See it.

The storyline of the two stunt women in Double Dare was compelling and fun. It was well paced: up, down, sideways and all with outrageous stunts going on as a side dish. The main course here is seeing two people trying to break in, and stay in this brutal business.

In case you didn't already know, Double Dare is a documentary about two Hollywood stuntwomen--the Xena and Wonderwoman who really encounter danger (within five minutes of the film, one of them is lit on fire... on purpose.) I don't know what it was about this doc, but it really hit home with me. I got the feeling that the filmmaker really wanted to let these stuntwomen tell their story, and you could feel the trust between the subjects and the crew. These women not only aren't afraid to jump of five story buildings, but are fearless in their fight against the sexism that is evidently still rampant in the film industry. Without Hollywood romanitcization or cheesy glorification (or a big budget it seems), Double Dare brilliantly tells the stories of these captivating stunt women.
