Critics Consensus

Equal parts plot holes and unintentional laughs, Replicas is a ponderously lame sci-fi outing that isn't even bad enough to be so bad it's good.

Along with the messy script is some absolutely horrendous CGI.

Does the Keanu Reeves vehicle Replicas do anything new or different in the sci-fi genre, or offer up any impressive action sequences, or any unique CGI? No, no, and no.

Keith & the Movies

Even though I did find it strangely entertaining, it’s just too scattered and a little too goofy to get behind it.

Rated: 2/5

It feels a film student binged Brian De Palma and John Woo's work only to vomit out their most basic trademarks.

Rated: 1/5

[Keanu Reeves] plays at Sophie's Choice... [And] as if he were in Minority Report, Keanu moves his hands and performs air mapping. [Full review in Spanish]

I heard about the state of this movie a few years back and decided to give it a watch. I had to get my brother to watch this with me and it was worth it. The script and acting of this movie is shallow and soulless but damn was it not hilarious to watch. The director of this movie must of had some serious dirt of Keanu to get him to act in this diasterclass of a movie. It feels like a whole season of a terrible tv show packed into one.

Standby to initiate neural damage! This movie proves just how wooden an actor Keanu Reeves actually is. Astonishingly bad.

You have to suspend belief for quite a bit, but the latter half of the movie moves quickly and energetically and all ends up right in the end. Sort of.
