Adam et ses clones

With everything he has to do, Adam Baker is a young boy running out of time. He has a crush on popular beauty Lori Collins. His wacky magician uncle arrives with a strange looking tanning bed. Adam gets stuck in it when he gets scared by his little sister. It turns on and duplicates him.

It's a Nickelodeon kiddie flick. It's kiddie Multiplicity or any other of those suburban cloning stories. It's mostly fine. The kids are fine. The lead kid tries. The film needs a bit more spit and polish. It's a kiddie TV movie. One can't expect much more than this.

This is a fine teenage film for all viewers to watch and enjoy. The crew did a good job in creating this teenage film. The storyline of this film was strong enough. It flowed nicely throughout the film. The cast selection was great and strong. They really committed to the storyline. The chemistry between the cast members was excellent and strong which really helped this film. I am a fan of the Nickelodeon teenage series and I was glad to see that the Nickelodeon celebrities are building their careers. I am a fan of them. It was great to see Jace, Isabela, Jack, and Tony working together. This teenage film reveals to viewers that no one nor nothing in the world of today is perfect. Everyone needs to accept that. This is a great teenage film for all viewers to watch.

Just for kids and pre-teens anyway, because it's really silly and boring, or I'm not into the vibe of these cute movies, despite being in love with them, this one didn't fit into my vibe...

I only watched part, so maybe kids will like it, but...

I could never enjoy it for one very simple reason: it's a total stealing of Michael Keaton's Multiplicity.

And we're talking outright stealing. So, so, so sad that a movie can take the very essence of another movie, make money off of it, and give no acknowledgment to (and most likely no money) the original.

Just call it what it is: Multiplicity 2 or something like that. That's my .02, anyway. Maybe that doesn't bother some, and they'll enjoy it. I'd prefer that - at least - a movie to point out that it's taken the whole concept of another one, so at least kids will watch the original movie.

Splitting Adam is another original Nick Kids movie which owes a debt to the Michael Keaton film, Multiplicity.

Adam (Jace Norman) juggles a lot of of things in a busy summer where he barely has a moment to himself. After accidentally stumbling into his magician uncle's mysterious tanning bed Adam ends up cloning himself. Not only that his clones have different personalities which leads to some slapstick and chaotic moments.

Adam thinks the clones will be the answer to his problems but once he starts feeling weak he realises that he needs to merge the clones back together.

The film is primarily aimed at kids who would enjoy it more than adults. It does have a decent soundtrack with recent hits but the special effects are below par and the film looks cheap.
