Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Leofwine_draca RECREATOR has potential but turns into a general mish-mash of ideas with way too much of the "teenagers running in the woods" type scenes to recommend it. It's a dimly lit adventure in which a trio of teenagers visit a remote island and take shelter in a mysterious installation when a storm beckons. Pretty soon they find themselves at the mercy of their own clones, which are set to destroy them.Cloning has always been an intriguing idea in cinema but the idea here is workable at best. Indeed so little is made of the originality of the premise that any random monster or human villain could have been the antagonist. Too much of it feels like a teen horror flick while the thought-provoking sci-fi angle of the story is swept aside.It doesn't help that the production values have led to a dim and gloomy looking movie with non-existent special effects. The thinly-written characters are rather trying and despite the best efforts of the actors involved none of them are remotely likable, so you end up having no interest in what happens come the end. It's a pity.

napseeker First of all, I went into this film expecting a b-movie not a major motion picture costing hundreds of millions, and so my high rating reflects the fact that for a b-movie, it exceeded my expectations and I can say that I enjoyed the experience. That's rare.Going over some of the criticisms posted by others on this board, I do agree with some of the points. In fact, one thing I didn't see anyone point out was how the clones would retain the memories of the originals (did I miss something? if it was explained, it must've been a quick throwaway line). I also think that having the real Tracy go from "No, let's negotiate with the clones" to suddenly chasing after her clone with bloodlust was a rather abrupt change in her personality that isn't explained well (it seems to have happened more to serve the purposes of the finale getting us to root for her clone).Now it's ironic that "Q" should be in this movie as I think if people can focus more on the character exploration that happens in the story rather than some of the plot holes, they'd enjoy this movie more. Star Trek TNG often requires its fans to make huge leaps in terms of suspending disbelief (e.g. the ability to speak to a new alien race in perfect English with no learning time for their universal translators, or some babbletech solution that saves the ship from blowing up).There's the scaffolding that sets up the core of the story e.g. crew flies into a wormhole landing them in a parallel universe where they meet their mirror-evil twins; then there's the actual core story e.g. what would Riker do if he found out there was a duplicate of him stranded for years and this version of him is someone he ends up resenting? The scaffolding is often where the plot holes and illogic lie; the core is where I think the story really succeeds or dies. TNG fans are used to putting aside the unbelievability of the "scaffolding" so they can enjoy the focus point of the story and the actions of the characters. I'd ask that people who watch this movie also try to do the same. Even the Twilight Zone had some ludicrous scaffolding let's not forget (man hops onto a train and finds himself transported into his own past when he disembarks)... yet Zone stories are nonetheless classics.I enjoyed seeing these characters confront their twins and the choices that they ultimately make for their own survival, especially Craig, who we see at the end, can be as cold as his clone. I look forward to seeing some more stories in this universe (it was fairly obvious that a sequel was being set up given the missing clone scientist). While I and I'm sure many viewers, could predict the ending when it came to clone-Tracy and Craig ending up together, the rest of the tale did nicely zig-zag here and there and kept me watching.

GotNoTimeToBleed I'm not giving away the complete ending, but Derek clearing wasn't the clone at the end. That was totally made clear in the house and woods after. So then why did he have the bandages on his arm? Obviously, either a case of bad editing or they changed the ending and missed that. If he was really supposed to be the clone, then they screwed up even more because it's anything but obvious, especially at the end at the hardware store. Totally not the clone character, therefore the clone is dead and the bandages are a bad mistake.And what the hell was up with the stuffed beaver with glasses? How many of those things are these on and near Baxter Island? There's a shot of one in the house along with deer. And then there's one in the hardware store by the door. Why? Is that some inside joke that we aren't supposed to pay attention to?The movie wasn't very good. It wasn't scary or even creepy really. It was actually kind of boring and the issue with the bandages just made things worse for me at the end.

Tommy Stints Out of the movies I have rented recently this was one I didn't have high hopes for. The kids wanted it, I got it, we watched it, and I was really surprised at how entertaining it was. Its more of a scifi thriller than horror, I think, but it had little horror elements in there too. It definitely wasn't a boring movie and when anyone died, it was at least for a reason rather than the typical knock-one-off-at-a-time for no reason approach.the movie actually brings up some interesting issues with cloning and science and brings the matter to the audience in a fun way.The young actors in the movie did a fantastic job especially considering their roles as themselves and their counter parts. the raange is there and was a pleasure to see. They top it off with a great little twist at the end, one some MIGHT have seen coming but was absolutely appreciated and leaves the door open for more (though the movie stands good on its own too). 8/10
