It's nice to see the big man back
First of all, this is NOT Total Recall and strictly speaking it's not better either, but don't let that put you off! Arnie plays his usual good guy (but he's getting slighly better folks!) who plays an old fashoned pilot that fears even cloning pets takes away some of our humanity. He then ends up having to fight for his identity, as usual there are chases, fights and some great special effects. I thought that Arnie checking for wrinkles in the first scene was quite funny, obviously a side joke hinting that he might be getting too old for this s**t. The bottom line is that this is the best Arnie flick for many years and proves that there is plenty of life in the ol' dog yet.

Somehow this is one of the best films of 2000
I really do think that this is a great film or at least very good, great plot, entertaining, smart, but confusing and a bit exagerated, but this is a very good one, it also has great acting,I really don't give it five stars i give it ****1/2.

Could've been better
Schwarzengegger's return to action didn't fare much better in this clunker about a regular joe named Adam Gibson who co-runs a helicopter business. Gibson learns that he's been cloned and the "replacement" that is living out his life, means he must be exterminated by a prophetic businessman and his group of dastardly cohorts. This film, while not bad, just seems flat and uninspired. Schwarzenegger's return to action doesn't do much and it seems that the standard action sequences take place with at least one mandatory car chase. The only real amusing scenes involve the continual cloning of the businessman's henchmen, and a scene involving two Arnolds at once, but rather than that, it just seems out of place.

The 6th Day
THE 6TH DAY is science-fiction action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold plays Adam Gibson, a professional helicopter pilot who has a loving wife and a daughter. The time period is "the near future," and there are laws that ban the concept of cloning human beings, but the cloning of animals and household pets is perfectly legal. The action and the fun begins when Adam Gibson comes home from a seemingly normal day of work on his birthday, and see's a clone of himself eating his birthday cake with his wife and daughter in his house. It seems that an evil corporation has illegally cloned Adam for reasons unknow to him, but Adam is very eager to find out, so he arms himself with some weapons and goes out to kick some human-cloning .... This movie turned out to be way better than I expected, and I recommend it to all action and Arnold Schwarzenegger movie fans!

Good movie, bad DVD!
This is a great film. It is very funny, but the dvd has really no features at all (trailer, scene selections). they could've made this dvd great. All the actors are great in the movie (especially Elizabeth Berkley!). So, buy the movie...but do not expect to get a great dvd. That is why Igave this 4 stars, because of the dvd. ... Read more

Better than you might think.
This is actually on the par of those made for Cinemax or Showtime movies, actually better. There's a degree of comedic interplay between Dudikoff and Howard that's entertaining enough to raise the basic material. I liked it enough that I went out and bought the first Hard Bounty and found that just as good. ... Read more

Movies this bad are sometimes funny -- not in this case.
From the opening credits, where LAPD police cars race down huge empty straightaway streets I was wondering where they found huge empty streets in LA in broad daylight. But still, I had high hopes; Dennis Hopper & Michael Madsen -- it's got to be worth watching, there's going to be some seething, twisted intensity somewhere.

Well, there wasn't...There was, however: cut-and-paste characters, all of them one-dimensional, all of them saying things that seem right out of other movies; a multitude of short, pointless scenes that don't add to the plot; some strange pre-adolescent ideas of how relationships work; and a 'surprise' ending that isn't.

This is a very amateurishly written and put-together little mishmash.

The story is: Good guy cop ("Steele" --just the name gives you some idea of how much thought went into this) in a new, tough division discovers all his new workmates are corrupt. Does he report them to internal affairs? Does he take the money and become one of the gang? Or does he think about it for just long enough to fill out a movie?

(choose #3...which includes a large number of hasty, moronic talks with his dad, Charles Durning, a retired cop who really shouldn't wear trousers with pleats).

Dennis Hopper as Captain of the division puts on a worried/angry expression and leaves it there. Michael Madsen who plays leader of the baddies is so relaxed--no matter what the scene may call for--that he seems to be relieved that he's paying off his credit card bill, or whatever bizarre reason he had to appear in a terrible film like this.

I think the filmmakers were trying for something like "The Choirboys" that had a good amount of comedy and camaraderie to lighten its drama and violence. Here, though, there's no comedy, the camaraderie is false, the drama is silly, the violence is gratuitous, the characters are laughably simplistically drawn, the plot is old and overused--and with nothing new brought to it.

Low budget shlock
You would expect an action movie with good stars like Hopper and Madsen to have something going for it...NOPE! This video is a serious letdown. The plot is amatuerish and hackneyed, the dialogue is pathetic, and the story on the whole is dissapointing and BORING!!DON'T waste your money on this piece of low budget trash like I did. Shame on Madsen and Hopper!! ... Read more
