Russell C.

I have no idea why this film is in the Sci-Fi thriller section, because it is a straight up drama and the Sci-Fi bit is just a small part of the plot. This movie is an extremely touching movie about love and coming to terms with ones fate. It is a very absorbing film with amazing performances I highly recommend seeing it. So this movie is NOT a Sci-Fi thriller in which clones run for there lives, if you want to see that then rent The Island.

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.
