If you’re one of those people who think Keanu Reeves can’t do nothing wrong then you probably haven’t seen Reproduction-To one of the funniest sci-fi movies inadvertently that even John Wick himself could not save from specific destiny. With a conspiracy with more holes than that old pair of socks you refuse to let go, Reproduction is the sloppiest sci-fi thriller that I’ve ever encountered, which is a shame because it has so much potential to be a comedy of the highest quality errors if it didn’t try so hard to play straight.

Have you ever watched a movie that feels trapped in the wrong genre?

For me, that movie ReproductionAnd you can stream the title on a tubi if you want to see for yourself what I mean.

Innovative that breaks down quickly

Keanu Reeves portrays William Foster ReproductionAnd it’s a kind of mad scientist who has devoted his life to finding a way to transmit human consciousness to Android bodies. Using the same kind of transparent floating touch screen technology Tony Stark uses in the McuWilliam is stopped with his latest failed prototype, subject 345. Thinking he is close to innovative development, William becomes an obsession with the prototype solution of the prototype intuitively self-destructing in awakening, but his employer, Bionyne Corporation, is ready to scrap the entire project (to reappear, to re-contribute, to re-contribute Restate, to re-contribution, to re-contribute, to reconvenive and break what has been triggered, sprayed ”middleditch).

Knowing that the time he spends at work causes his life to fall apart on the home front, William takes the weekend away to take his wife, Mona (Alice Eve), and his three children, Sophie (Emily Alyn Lind), Matt (Emjay Anthony), and Zoe (Aria Leabu) on a boat trip.

As you would expect, the boat trip is getting terribly wrong in Reproduction Because William’s family was killed in a car accident before they could never sail.

Alone with his clones

At first William is hooked when his family is killed ReproductionBut he quickly has a moment of clarity (read: madness) when thinking about subject failures 345, and suddenly has access to four fresh bodies that need to be resurrected.

And how does William decide to see if he can successfully turn his family from Corps into functional reproductions, you ask? He steals all his extremely expensive and unwieldy tools from Bionyne. Now operating out of his basement, William Jerry-brigging three cloning codes with car batteries only to remember that he has four dead members of the family who need to resurrect. Drawing names from a hat, William, whose moral and ethical compass declines as he becomes increasingly obsessed with his work, decides that Zoe has removed the metaphorical short straw and will be left to spoil.

Successfully in his restoration of the rest of his family, William determines the “eternal sunshine” of his reproductions of Mona, Sophie, and Matt so that they do not have memories of Zoe in regaining awareness. In the meantime, everyone in Bionyne is sitting there, neating their thumbs, wondering where the hec William went, because he has not physically shown to work in weeks and they really need to know where he is with the whole humanity with cybernetics the thing he receives an egregious amount of money to achieve.

Should have been a comedy

Reproduction Suffering is immense to play it straight away, and all the time I was watching I was shouting at TV to be funny. All elements for comedy are of quality errors are just below the surface, but are smoked by severity.

William’s lack of alarming qualifications for playing God with his dead family would have landed completely if his character was waunted like Christopher Lloyd’s Brown Dock Back to the future franchise or rick sanchez of Rick and Morty.

The idea of ​​a mad scientist Hayn’t Slept in Days and Isn’t Thinking Right Would Have Made This Disaster of A sci-fi Effective excitement and comedy if I had to weigh.

Or even better, he forgets to hide the body of Zoe and must explain to the rest of his family the dead little girl lays on the floor of their living room because he forgot to drop her body off at the heap.

Unfortunately these theoretical situations of these morbid I have just made for my own madness never play out ReproductionAnd we get an unattached mess of a story that makes little sense.

From this writing you can stream Reproduction Free on a tubi.
