Largely boring

The synopsis given by AmazonPrime is a lie, claiming that the clone baby's birth causes the husband to have "a supernatural ability to see the future". This is not true except in the most incredibly vague sense, to such a degree that you could interpret it as meaning the exact opposite.

The concept the movie is selling is one that feels intriguing but is not particularly interesting on its own. So a lot will depend on how this film delivers in as many areas as possible (acting, writing, dialogue, directing, sound, costume, etc).

This film delivers on very little of that. The setup gives us the idea that a woman gives birth to a baby that is supposed to be a clone of her comatose husband who is expected never to recover. He then suddenly recovers and he and the baby seem to have violent psychological reactions to one another.

Right at the start of the cloning idea, the wife, Josie, asks about implications regarding souls, whether the clone baby would have a soul of its own or have the same soul as her husband or whatever. The clone doctors dismiss it since there's no way of knowing, and the husband, Leo, starts having psychedelic visions about the clone baby.



For about the first 20 or 30 minutes, this is what the film focuses on. Then as it skips ahead 23 years, it becomes an almost completely different film altogether, completely dropping all of its philosophical navelgazing about cloning and souls, and starts to make less sense, culminating in an ending almost stubbornly insistent on abruptly following through with its initial setup despite having abandoned it after the first 30 minutes.

As such, we basically get a movie that feels as though it were filmed in two distinct pieces; the first 20 minutes and last 5 minutes, and then the rest, and then made to tie in together.

It feels disjointed and like a waste of a perfectly decent sci-fi concept, but the worst sin of it all is that it is just flat-out boring.

There Is No Armor Against Fate!!!!

Okay the first half of the movie was interesting but then it became exactly that, the first half of the movie. Basically the movie totally splits in half You will spend the whole '2nd half' of the movie trying to figure out how the two halves are going to connect, if at all.

Some people might find that story line interesting but I found it quite annoying.

-1 Star for the movie broken in half gimmick

-1 Star for the HO-ING involved

+1 Star for there being nudity in the scenes that should have it

-1 Star for being way too predictable and really really not in a good way. I mean the prediction was God I hope it doesn't turn out that Blank Blank Blank happens, and then it does!!!

Really there's not much good to say about this one. Not recommended.

Interesting approach

Leo Kingman, a very famous architect, is in a coma, and his wife Josie, is devoted to him, and desperately wants to have his baby. He is in an obviously expensive place and is thought to have no chance of recovery. His sperm simply has no value in creating a baby. One of the doctors at the clinic suggests to Josie an approach that will give her a baby, but it is secret, and illegal, and involves cloning. He assures her she will get a baby that is exactly like Leo, and after she is implanted with the cloned cells, Leo suddenly comes out from the coma state. But he also has terrible visions, and they center around the baby hating him, and it grows to the point where he cannot have the baby around him, so the only choice is to bury the baby in a woods. We then flash forward 23 years, and Leo and Josie are at their very wealthy home, and are needing to get a well capped, and the company hired doesn't do the job. But along comes Eddie, who offers to do the work. And there come the complications. The movie is not particularly good. It is really a movie of two parts, and the second part is not handled well, leaving the audience wanting something original.

Gripping story

Interesting film that kept me on the edge of my seat. Good production value even though it was low budget film. Loved the saturated colors. Original plot.
