Here is My Movie Review of Replicas

So basically what happens is that you have this guy named William Foster Who is that scientist who is trying to transfer human consciousness into a computer. Then he decides to Take his family out on a vacation however during a storm they And to this car accident which kills his wife and kids. So after that he decides to have his friend Ed help him bring his family back to life by cloning them into replicas and that is basically what the story is for this movie.  The story to this movie is really bad the way I can summon up it  Is a lazy rehash version of the storyline in the movie Chappie. But the only difference being that with chappie I was very entertained and I like the story. But with this movie I just didn't really care about the story. I just thought it was really bland and not really entertaining at all. 

The acting in this movie is probably up there with the movie Polar as one of the worst acted movies of 2019 Because This movie, much like that movie, has good actors. It's just that the acting from the actors is so boring and not really entertaining at all.

Now the only positive I do have about this movie is that I did think the actors do have great chemistry with each other. All of the acting is really bad. 

 The worst performance in the entire movie. I'm sorry to say Keanu Reeves is very bland and boring and not really entertaining in this movie. He plays the main character William Foster In this movie and I have to say This is probably my pick for The worst performance he has ever given. What's really disappointing is that Keanu Reeves is a fantastic actor. If you watch him in stuff like the Matrix and Speed you could tell he is having fun in the movies such as Neo and Jack Traven. Watch him and I just think he's really boring in this movie. Also I still think speed is one of Keanu Reeves's best movies. I have ever seen one before. But I have to say replicas is probably the worst movie I have ever seen. The character of William Foster is really bland because I didn't really care for either character because  his family did die in a car accident. Also that's why I cared more about Iron Man From the Infinity Saga than  I care about any of the characters in this movie because the Marvel Cinematic Universe was building up to Iron Man's death. Well in this movie it just suddenly happens with no buildup. The chemistry between him and Alic Eve, Thomas Middleditch, John Ortiz, Emjay Anthony Is really good. 

Alic Eve Plays William Foster's wife Mona In this movie. I have to say her performance is so bland and so average that The even forgot she's even The main character's wife that's how forgettable she was in this movie. Mona as a character. All she does in this movie is Question if William Foster is going crazy and that's all she does throughout the whole movie.  The romance between her and William Foster I just thought was really bland and probably one of the most foreign relationships in a 2019 movie. I much prefer the relationship between Jack Traven and Annie Porter From speed because only that's the way I actually bought their relationship throughout the entire film.  Also I still think Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock had excellent chemistry with each other in the film. The chemistry between him and Alice Eve Is  really decent. 

Thomas Middleditch Plays William Foster's friend Ed in the film. I have to say it much like I said With Keanu Reeves. Thomas Middleditch Is not really great in this movie. I Just think he is very stiff and very flat in the role. The character of Ed is rather boring because all he does in this movie is help William Foster with whatever he needs to do in this movie and it is just very generic and very repetitive to watch. Also the friendship between him and William Foster I just didn't really care about. In the film to be honest I actually bought Harry's and Jack Traven´s Friendship and Speed because they add to  spend time together in the film. The Twist reveal with Ed working with the villain In this movie it was very dumb and very cheesy and just came out nowhere. Also the chemistry between him and Keanu Reeves is okay. To be honest I much preferred the chemistry between Keanu Reeves and Jeff Dennis In the movie Speed because it was real and  I could tell the two actors had fun together in the film.

Emjay Anthony Plays William Foster's son Matt Foster In the film. I have to say much like the rest of the acting in the movie Emjay Anthony  is so Generic and so flat and the character of Matt Foster. Matt Foster as a character is rather flat and unmemorable because he is just there to be William Foster's son and he doesn't really have much of a personality. The father son relationship in this movie is not strong at all. I just did not believe them as father and son. To be honest I much prefer the father-daughter always except in the Ant-Man movies between Scott Lang and Cassie because I  actually bought them as family members. But  with William Foster and Matt Foster I just simply didn't care for their family or relationship. The chemistry between him and Keanu Reeves is fine. However I prefer the chemistry between Paul Rudd and Abby Ryder Fortson in the Ant-Man movies because I bought them as a real father and daughter relationship. 

 John Ortiz plays The main villain Jones in this movie. I have to say his performance is so Flat and so uninteresting that I actually forgot he was even the villain in this movie. That's how unmemorable Jones is as a character. He is probably the most forgettable villain of the 2010s. I'm going to say that Scar from The Lion King 2019 is a much more memorable villain because he actually has a lot to do in that film. Also Scar was really irritating and very dark as a villain. But Jones in this movie is so one-dimensional and really forgettable that He is probably up there with Kurse from Thor the Dark World as one of the most forgettable villains of the 2010s. The rivalry between him and William Foster is not very strong at all. I have to say the rivalry between Jack Traven and Howard Payne From Speed was a much better rivalry between two characters in a film because you understood why they hate each other in the film. The chemistry between him and Keanu Reeves is okay. But I have to say the chemistry between Keanu Reeves and Dennis Hopper in speed was much better executed because I actually bought their chemistry in the film. 

The directing by Jeffrey Nashmanoff Is really bad because he tried to make you feel sympathy for the main character William Foster but it just doesn't really work very well at all. Also I don't know what he wanted this  film to be, did he wanted it to be an action movie or does he want This to be a sci-fi thriller film. This is probably my pick for one of the worst directed movies of 2019 dare I say the worth directed at a movie of the 2010s.

So in conclusion I did not like this movie. I just think it is very boring and very generic. Keanu Reeves in this movie Is just really bad and very boring and again he is great actor I just think this is probably my pick for one of the worst Keanu Reeves movies I have ever seen and did it probably my least favorite performance from him. And what's worst of that this movie feels like a Netflix movie and I think it's probably up there with some of the worst Netflix original movies like Polar, TAU and The Open House as one the worst movies of the 2010s. Also I'm actually surprised this movie wasn't a Netflix original movie due to how bad it was. Just skip this movie Go watch Speed or any of the John Wick movies you'll have a much better time with those films. I give this movie a 1/10.
