Multiplicity (1996)
3/10
Had potential, but just dumb

Warning: Spoilers
We all know the situation, where we have too much to do. We can also imagine the buzz in a family where one person build houses and the other sells it.

So the idea of making clones is very good. And when you have a good actor like Michael Keaton - there are potential.

However, the film is dumb. The main character talk to a doctor, who miraculously is able to make a clone with perfect memory in matter of hours.

From there the film is dumb. A man clone himself, without telling his wife, not even just stupid, but under current rules illegal. He have not specific plan to keep it secret. Just letting his close live in a space the family don't use and let the clone do his work.

And of course it goes crazy, as the clones (yes, more than one) cheat on each other and makes a mess of all.

Typical "I am so stupid, I do not consider my actions" and have to be sooo funny in the awkward situations that occur.

Add a little more brain, make it more believable and please no doctor that do discount on clones of the week - it could have been great.
