Review by Steve G 💚

One of the few Arnies I'd never seen, mainly due to its dreadful reputation and the fact that I don't think much of Roger Spottiswoode's films.
And it's not at all good, is it. The concept is quite good but is used to, at first, try and resemble Total Recall, and then used to just bore the crap out of me during an endless third act. Cannot believe how long this film felt, nor why they made it this long in the first place.
Even Arnie doesn't seem much bothered by this, and nobody else is really making the effort or taking this at all seriously, aside from Robert Duvall, who's seemingly acting in a different film to everyone else.…
Review by AJ Black ★★½ 1

Let's be honest, The 6th Day would like to believe its quite a clever cautionary tale about the perils of human cloning, of playing God, but the reality is that it's built around the gimmick of two Arnold Schwarzenegger's in one movie and being able to get away with it - surely an action junkie's special kind of dream? The only problem is that Roger Spottiswoode's film is so hokey, so cheesy, and so desperately trying to trick us into believing it's got something to say, that it rarely can escape the schlocky, B-movie dumb action theatrics that the script and direction often fall back on - yet unlike Arnie's best, it's not half as much fun.
To the movie's…

one of the great modern b-movies. 5 nacho bananas out of 5.
Review by Waiching Liu ★½ 1

The 6th Day was released 10 years after the release of Arnold Schwarzenneger's Total Recall; however, circulated at a period when his Hollywood blockbuster status made less sense as it continued to drift further away after 1994's True Lies (IMO, his last best movie), the film is directed by Roger Spottiswoode, of whom but for the 007-based Tomorrow Never Dies (seen by many as one of the weakest and forgettable Bond movies, ever), and Turner & Hooch - which I enjoyed, has always been a lacklustre filmmaker, whose approach lacks cutting edge and boldness, as exemplified in the 1986 sports comedy, The Best of Times starring pre-Hollywood stars, Robin Williams and Kurt Russell.
Adam Gibson (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a family man…

part of midnight movie madness
Ok, so this is what you get when you watch films sleep drunk.
Thought this was about clowning.
Thought it was one of Ahnold's lost comedies or something.
Well, actually, that isn't too far from the truth......
Laughably bad.

Cool premise, boring execution. Also only two Arnie-isms in the movie smh
Review by dangigernes ★★½

Acceptable "you get two for the price of one Schwarzenegger" film as he plays a man who's life is invaded by a clone. As in all Hollywood clone movies there is seem to be a magical element involved that gives the clone the memories and personality of the original when recreated. At least the film is fun and has some good additional villains but the action is forgettable and that is actually the big downfall of this film and not the magic DNA.
Review by Lagerlout ★★

The best thing about this film are the MANY Startate SG-1 cameos. Can I say Don S. Davis was WASTED in this hellscape of a film.
Review by James Alioth ★

The most 2000's-y bad Arnold movie you could cook up.
I don't even know where to begin with this movie. I don't know if it's kidding or not, but I hate every second of it. Not fun hate, or get drunk and watch with friends hate, I want to wipe this embarrassing movie from my memory, and the face of the earth if possible.
It has one star instead of half, only because I have to give it more credit than my most hated ever.
Review by Richard Gallon ★★

What could be an interesting take on the action film genre with a hot science topic woven into the premise, is actually hindered by this as it expects its rather underwhelming cast to spout dialogue on the subject they are just unable to convincingly do, especially under Spottiswoode’s poor direction and frustratingly choppy editing.

lol, the director's name is spot his wood
Review by martinenelpais ★

This film is hilariously awful and silly. I don't know if they really meant to dig deep into questions about human cloning, and the meaning of life and death, but I do know that, aside from presenting a morally devious future where cloning is possible (although not yet legal on humans), it also predicts that the near future will be very unpleasing aesthetically, and dolls for little girls will be interactive, human-sized and they will look like scary-as-fuck, overgrown fetuses.
Review by Akerker ★★★

經典複製人題材，劇情發展沒有太大的驚喜
但為何IMDb才5.9分也太低XD
Review by Nice to Meat You, I'm Todd ★★½

Arnold Schwarzenegger wants his life back after being taken by an illegal cloning process. This futuristic action movie covers the ethical concerns of cloning. It starts with pets, but cloning humans is strictly forbidden. Despite a promising premise, the execution is all paint by the numbers. We've seen the evil corporation uses technology storyline before. Entertaining but not ground breaking. Recommended only for Arnold action fans. The rest may not want to bother.
