Critics Consensus

This high-concept experiment only proves that a comedy actually can have too much Michael Keaton.

Gene Siskel

Chicago Tribune

Multiplicity is more concerned with its special effects of multiple characters than any satisfying conclusion to its provocative premise.

Great premise, great work by Keaton, but the script lets them down.

Ramble On With Buffa (Substack)

There aren't many actors who can portray four personalities this well, and I can only wish comedies made me laugh today as much as this one did.

Some sexy stuff in dated, but entertaining '80s comedy.

An extremely overworked contractor (Micheal Keaton) discovers a way to clone himself so he can spend at least a little time at home with his beautiful but neglected wife (Andie MacDowell). The clone eventually wants a helper of his own and clones himself - a copy of a copy. The clones then begin to destroy Keaton's life and repeatedly hit on his wife. It's very funny!

The most Michael Keaton thing Michael Keaton could do. I LOVE it. Don't sleep on this movie and let any negative reviews steer you away. Keaton's acting as different versions of his character is flawless. It's the whole reason to watch this movie. Great comedy watching the 4 "Steve's" different personalities. Please do yourself a favor, and enjoy a fun time watching this film.
