Critic Reviews

  • Robert Cashill, Newsweek

    The studios should enact their own '6th Day Law' prohibiting the carbon-copy duplication of elements from scenario to scenario.

  • Todd McCarthy, Variety

    A mostly standard-issue latter-day Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner.

  • Gemma Files, Film.com

    Far smarter and more airtight than almost any other Ahhh-nuld project since James Cameron's Terminator series.

  • Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star

    If replicating the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger was truly a pressing possibility, we'd get superior knockoffs of better days than this.

  • Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel

    Some of the action scenes here are among the best of the season.

    LOL, must I say how bad this movie is? I remember my mom told me that Koreans were thinking this would be "Terminator 3".... nope. Terminator 3 was better than this garbage. This is the literal tagline to the movie: "You've cloned the wrong man." LOL HAHAHAHA… More

    Just an all around bizarre movie. It felt a lot like Blade Runner, but obviously couldn't live up to its expectations. The main reason to watch it of course is the double Arnold Schwarzenegger performances. It's double the destruction and madness of one iron pumper.… More
