A movie that deserved a more mainstream release

This was a pretty big flop when it came out, it's actually better than half of Arnie's movies, the storyline is very unique & has some credited actors, such as Michael Rapaport as his best friend, the movie is a little harder to understand than most Arnie movie's but makes perfect sense at the end, this is not a great movie & its certainly not a bad movie. There are a few similarities to "Total Recall", both sorta in the near future but at the same time they cover different issues, but the subject of Human Cloning is probably a little more realistic & actually is becoming an issue in the world now. If your an Arnie fan you should like this, even if your not a fan of the Big man you probably would appreciate this. A fairly decent movie that deserves a second viewing. 7 / 10
