The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

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.

This is one of those movies you watch because you have seen everything else. However, there is some entertainment value to this movie. The bad lines that makes you chuckle, poor acting, and fight scenes that border on comical at times kept me watching. The movie did hold my attention. I kept hoping for an explanation of key events at some point, but it never came, and made the whole thing fall flat for me. I was trying to figure out the direction of the movie because it all seemed so muddled. By the end I felt like the whole point was like one of those Saturday morning cartoon specials, the silly ones that slap you in the face with some kind of moral message. Their was no explanation of main events, and the characters reacted in such unnatural ways, one might mistake them for the clones. I would not watch it again, but I've seen worse.

I was not getting my hopes up on this film, as I think this kind of film has been done before, and it is nothing really new, but in some ways it is. But I thought it was entertaining enough for me to give it a positive spin, don't view this for blood and guts, titties, as it is not a horror film, and sorry no nudity scenes.If you watch this with a light hearted approach then it is not bad entertainment, it flows just fine, no real slow boring moment, but no flash bang pace either.The acting is OK, and a solid enough story line, but no Oscar winning performance either, give it a go, you can watch a hell of a lot worse.7 out of 10 for me

This movie is so much fun! I didn't know quite what to expect going into the theater, but I really enjoyed myself. Recreator played on all my fears of the woods and camping...irrational fears, you may say, perhaps not!! I loved the setting...it all takes place on an isolated and wooded island (filmed in upstate NY). So creepy...and yet the house on this island is AMAZING! It's a gorgeous cabin, but more like a cabin mansion...the kind of place you think of when you hear the words "dream vacation home." I'd love to spend a weekend there relaxing, swimming, reading...though maybe not after seeing what happens on that island in the film...ha. I don't want to say too much, because it will give away half the fun. But I can say...I'm glad I'm not a twin. Buy a big tub of popcorn and go with a few friends!
