Critics Consensus

Equal parts plot holes and unintentional laughs, Replicas is a ponderously lame sci-fi outing that isn't even bad enough to be so bad it's good.

Along with the messy script is some absolutely horrendous CGI.

Does the Keanu Reeves vehicle Replicas do anything new or different in the sci-fi genre, or offer up any impressive action sequences, or any unique CGI? No, no, and no.

Keith & the Movies

Even though I did find it strangely entertaining, it’s just too scattered and a little too goofy to get behind it.

Rated: 2/5

It feels a film student binged Brian De Palma and John Woo's work only to vomit out their most basic trademarks.

Rated: 1/5

[Keanu Reeves] plays at Sophie's Choice... [And] as if he were in Minority Report, Keanu moves his hands and performs air mapping. [Full review in Spanish]

Don't know why everyone has been so mean, this was a straight forward story exploring human cloning. It was entertaining, good acting and just a strong story line. It is not a thinky film there was no exploration of the morals and ethics. I quite liked that they didn't. Was a straight forward good to watch film
