A world of the very near future in which cattle, fish, and even the family pet can be cloned. But cloning humans is illegal - that is until family man Adam Gibson comes home from work one day to find a clone has replaced him. Taken from his family and plunged into a sinister world he doesn't understand, Gibson must not only save himself from the assassins who must destroy him to protect their secret, but uncover who and what is behind the horrible things happening to him.

Souls can’t be cloned, but they’re still human. Kinda bad acting though

No amount of cool explosions and campy one-liners can hide the underlying dystopia this film exudes. From the jump, the lack of humanity made my skin crawl. I wasn't expecting that, honestly. It's a fun yet unnerving time.

Well that was pretty loony. And I loved it. Maybe the last movie before Arnie started losing enthusiasm for acting and started thinking about governating. There's laughs, both intentional and not, and some wonk-ass CGI with those helicopters that looked like left over Power Rangers props and ultra goofy edits throughout. But it all adds up to quality entertainment. What keeps it all together is the plot, which was honestly well put together and helps you buy in. I totally believed the why's. Everything was well set up, delivered enough surprise and stayed true to the universe that was created.

If you've already watched Total Recall about 5 or 6 times, and you should, then this offers a reasonably alternative for something a bit similar but different enough.

XFL! Oh movie, you sure picked it!

I don’t quite know why, but I really liked this movie…

Yeah, that’s right, I thought it was good, enjoyed, interesting, all that stuff. I am a sucker for Sci-Fi so maybe that’s why… ah, who cares, I liked it!
