    The movie was a rather sad depiction of cloning and organ farming. A sad and uncompromising story. The story of ethics and the human dilemma.

    This is the first review I have ever written because I found this movie to be very disburbing on so many levels. Why would any person knowing that they are organ donors just hang around waiting for the next body part to be cut out. Why don't they just leave? Why do they keep giving body parts up until they die to some stranger that feels they are deserving of these organs? If this is a touching movie about love and coming to terms with one's fate, as one reviewer stated, I would rather live in a hole and eat dirt.

    Depressing. Gets progressively sadder and more depraved and disturbing. Especially don't watch this if you are newly in love--it will rip your heart out. Believe me when I say "Sadder than Titanic". And get that "organ donor" icon off your drivers licenses!! You are worth more dead than alive. No they can't buy your organ, but transplant surgeries make facilities rich!! To Mike and Helen R: So there are depictions of organ harvesting that are NOT sad?? Watch Turistas for a more realistic look at illegal organ procurement bec that's what it's called these days.
