Replicas

My wife and I took a chance and went to see a sci-fi movie called "Replicas".  The synopsis of the film sounded very interesting:

"After a car accident kills his family, a daring synthetic biologist will stop at nothing to bring them back, even if it means pitting himself against a government-controlled laboratory, a police task force, and the physical laws of science."

Modern films in general often are quite weak in plot and so, the ideas expressed seemed potentially more interesting than a lot of films I have read about lately, so we took a chance on it. It stars Keanu Reeves, which was not really a good sign.  But, I have enjoyed his work in a few other films, so we went to the theater.

Well, as to be expected I guess, the film had a helluva lot of plot holes, and was utterly far-fetched in so many ways it would take hours of writing to mention even half of them.  BUT... both my wife and I found it to be entertaining and enjoyable.  And, it was just fun to be together too.  The plot holes were easy enough to overlook as the IDEA behind the story was pretty intriguing.  Critical reviews of the film have been savagely against the film... but we both ended up being happy we went to see it.
