This idea, this cast, there is a better movie in there that was never made, it's not even somewhere on the cutting room floor.

From Silverman especially I for one was hoping this would be a return to his Weekend At Bernie's roots (remember when he used to work?) or along the lines of multiplicity. Instead he is semi-dark and obsessive but just doesn't pull it off.

Save your time.

...but in execution, it could have been a LOT better. It's one of those movies where the whole plot depends on science, but the science itself is wholly unimportant, so thankfully they elected to leave it out. Lucky too, as they would have botched it utterly. It's possible to enjoy this movie, watch out though, because it is dark. So very dark. In fact, both morally and ethically, this is a hot poker to the groin.

Also, if i misinterpreted this movie completely and it's actually a movie about how we trust white middle-aged men with a higher education too much, and forgive them too easily when they betray said trust - well, then i'm sorry. Contact me in this case - i will change the score to 10/10.

This movie personifies the debate of whether cloning is humane through a make believe story of a college professor who loses his wife and repeatedly trys to clone her. The film is very light hearted and tactful maintaining its family friendly theme but when things start to go haywire a beautiful message develops. Great pacing and enough comic wit to keep everything upbeat and in good spirits. I give this a Good movie rating when seeking something clean and fun.

Adam Slope (Jonathan Silverman) is a college professor and a genetics scientist. He has difficulty dealing with the death of his beloved wife Dawn (Jennifer Finnigan). With his student assistant's help, he tries to clone his wife but he has trouble recreating her love for him.

Adam's obsession is very uncomfortable. It starts off creepy and never gets pass it. The movie tries to be fun but the creepiness never allows it to be fun. The premise has been done before like in Creator. The Groundhog Day aspect contributes more surrealism than reality. I can live with all the awkwardness but the creep factor wins out in the end.

When you're watching a movie who clones his dead wife, you know what the premises are. The fun is that he needs her to be the same woman he fell in love with, but that seems more and more impossible. And his selfish motives to make her alive again serves up delightful situations and good plot twists. I had a good time, and yes, I would watch it again.
