Okay I stand corrected... this is the worst movie of 2019 so far!!!

Replicas is a new science fiction movie starring Keanu Reeves. Like him or hate him, he’s been in some good movies (Speed, Bill & Ted, The Matrix, John Wick), and he’s been in some really bad movies (Dracula, The Day the Earth Stood Still, 47 Ronin). So I guess somewhere Keanu took a break while working on John Wick Chapter 3 or whatever. Here he plays as a father and a scientist who lost his whole family in a car accident. But then he gets the idea to put his family’s consciousness into robotic clones, and that’s our movie apparently. Oh, and there’s this extra bullshit where he has to keep it a secret or else the company he works for will do nefarious things, and it’s all a fucking waste of time.

Just... fuck!

This movie was a disaster from start to finish. First off, the acting is terrible. Keanu Reeves, especially, was the worst. I mean, what happened to him? Don’t get me wrong, I always thought of Keanu Reeves as a blank slate ever since the release of the first Matrix movie. But then I finally saw John Wick and I thought he was awesome again. Now’s back to that same blank slate that he was before in this movie. And it’s not helped when the rest of the cast is phoned in too. Nothing felt authentic. Everybody was there just to get a quick paycheck.

The plot is just a mess too. It’s too different stories crammed into an hour and a half flick that 5 people in your neighborhood would see because there’s nothing better to do. This honestly felt like it was a movie made for the 1990s. Not just that, a bad movie for the 1990s. Hell, scratch all of that, this felt like a bad episode of The Twilight Zone or The Outer Limits, or just bad science fiction writing in general, in the 1990s. I mean shit it does feel like it was made with a TV budget, especially when it shows the robot in this movie and it looks terrible. One of the worst CGI moments I’ve ever seen.

I wish there was more I could say about this movie, but there’s honestly nothing else. I don’t have anything good to say about it. This movie is going to be forgotten real quick and it’ll turn up somewhere at your local Wal-Mart or Target in a $5 movie bin. Shit, I’m gonna completely forget this movie existed or that I even wrote a review for it until I do my Worst Movies of 2019 list by the end of the year. This was just a terrible movie. Actually worse! It’s a fucking terrible movie released in January, the month where people don’t give a shit and let their movie projects die horrible, painful deaths instead of giving them euthanasia.

I know I’ve stated before that these reviews are just my sole opinion and you should go judge for yourselves to see if you like it or not. But I’m straight up telling here and now DON’T go and see this movie! Waste your time doing something better!

Just... DAMMIT! GOD-COCKSUCKING-DAMMIT-TO-FUCKING-HELL!!!!
