Gemini man is a spectacle that lacks substance. Is it the worst movie ever created? No, definitely not.

Is it the worst movie ever created? No, definitely not. However, the story truly does not live up to the deep, thought-provoking epic that the marketing campaign lead us to believe we would see. The final product of Gemini man feels like a tech-demo starring Will Smith with about thirty minutes of script hidden behind some good action scenes. While the action is fun, and Will Smith does have some good one liners, the action lacks weight. As far as the tech showcase we were supposed to see with the deaging and the HFR, there really is not a noticeable difference between this format and regular high definition. This might be an okay movie to throw on in the background, but there was nothing here that grabbed my attention. Expand

I don't care for Will Smith-he is so insecure in all his roles, I think he has it in his contract that every movie must have 5 minutes talking about how great he is, same as Julia Roberts.

I was hoping this would be a fun movie, in spite of its lukewarm reception, but no. Not only is it one of the most wandering and pointless action movies I've ever seen, it's also just a badly shot, directed, edited, and written film.

Jumps to random locations without preamble. So many characters that other characters have to remind you of who they're talking about with nudges like "the bald guy". Real subtle. Meetings on meetings to rehash what we already know! And the CG looks like computer guy vs computer guy.

Save yourself the time or set your expectations to even lower than you thought.

Will Smith stars as Will Smith and Will Smith in Willsmithi Man. I liked this movie better the first time around with Arnold when it was called 6th Day.

A turkey! Strange movie, which starts OK but falls into ridiculousness. Looks like an old computer game, ans Smiths close looks like bad CGI. Owen and Winstead are good, but Smith is stale even when not a data animated younger clone.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well the whole film was very boring. The cript was cool for 2006, when star wars clone war has been released. Clone of a clone of a clone of a clone...
Maybe the film could get better rate if it could be at least 1 hour, not more. The script is written for 30 mins.

Boring, emotionless, lazy and above all else... A waste of your time. I wondered for nearly two hours how this abomination came to be... But then i saw David Benioff credited as writer, and suddenly everything made sense again.

The story:
Boring, emotionless, lazy and above all else... A waste of your time. I wondered for nearly two hours how this abomination came to be... But then i saw David Benioff credited as writer, and suddenly everything made sense again.

The story: Will Smith is a hitman, who is indoctrinated with the idea that he's 'the best', even though no arguments are presented to support that theory, nor are other assassins presented. Nonetheless, we watch a movie with over one hour of lazy and emotionless conversations that haven't been changed from the first draft of the script. Will Smith, who is usually such a good actor, has no emotional reaction to hearing that someone used his DNA to create a Clone before the first sheep was cloned... The ****

Some of the fight scenes are impressive by using high frame rate camera's, but can't elevate the movie higher than something that looks like it was filmed on a spare requisite set. Supposed soldiers die like flies, and the laws of physics only apply to those that aren't working for the government. Yuck.

I could go on about this abomination, but the fact remains that this movie is underwhelming and lazy in each aspect. Stay away from it, don't watch it on any streaming platform, and go watch Rambo: Last Blood. Sylvester Stallone is not a good actor, but his performance is Shakespeare compared to Gemini Man. I give this movie a 3/10. It is a terrible movie.

This one borders on being so bad that its good but it doesn't quite reach that level and instead ends up being a chore to sit through. Just another bland movie in 2019 with a generic, over done plot and boring action.

Piece of crap. Everything is bad in this movie. Script (ridiculous lines of dialog), plot, performances, CGI. Sometimes young Will is worse than #Superman's mustache.

Sometimes young Will is worse than #Superman's mustache. It is innovative and spectacular in how it was filmed, with 3d cameras at 4Kand 120fps, but at the same time that image is difficult to process in our eyes and brain, it seems like a soap opera format and not a movie.

As for the film he lets himself be seen. It offers good possibilities for the final speech #SeBattreCoisSeMe #Clonage #Ethique, but does not go far enough. Good action scenes, but the HFR does not help realism. It feels like being in front of a video game and all the problem comes from there. We do not believe in the young Wil Smith. We do not believe certain scenes and suddenly the end softens from minute to minute. In any case, I liked it.

Filmé de manière originale en saturant les couleurs et en utilisant le HFR (60image par seconde en 3D)... Je comprends pourquoi la presse française à détesté. Quant au film il se laisse voir. Il propose de bonnes possibilités quant au discours final #SeBattreContreSoisMeme #Clonage #Ethique, mais ne va pas assez loin. De bonnes scènes d'action, mais le HFR n'aide pas le réalisme. On a l'impression d'être devant un jeu vidéo et tout le problème vient de là. On ne croit pas au Wil Smith jeune. On ne croit pas certaines scènes et du coup le final se ramollit de minute en minute. En tous cas j'ai bien aimé.

Terrible script, terrible dialogues, mediocre action. The main character, Henry, is the best. The best of the best. Really, he is the top of the crop and the movie will not let you forget that.

Really, he is the top of the crop and the movie will not let you forget that. It's laughable how often someone mentions how Henry is just the best. It is hard to believe that this movie ran in the cinema. It feels like a typical direct to DVD / Netflix production from start to finish. Gemini Man would be Will Smiths worst movie but "After Earth" still exists. Expand
