The synopsis given by AmazonPrime is a lie, claiming that the clone baby's birth causes the husband to have "a supernatural ability to see the future". This is not true except in the most incredibly vague sense, to such a degree that you could interpret it as meaning the exact opposite.
The concept the movie is selling is one that feels intriguing but is not particularly interesting on its own. So a lot will depend on how this film delivers in as many areas as possible (acting, writing, dialogue, directing, sound, costume, etc).
This film delivers on very little of that. The setup gives us the idea that a woman gives birth to a baby that is supposed to be a clone of her comatose husband who is expected never to recover. He then suddenly recovers and he and the baby seem to have violent psychological reactions to one another.
Right at the start of the cloning idea, the wife, Josie, asks about implications regarding souls, whether the clone baby would have a soul of its own or have the same soul as her husband or whatever. The clone doctors dismiss it since there's no way of knowing, and the husband, Leo, starts having psychedelic visions about the clone baby.
For about the first 20 or 30 minutes, this is what the film focuses on. Then as it skips ahead 23 years, it becomes an almost completely different film altogether, completely dropping all of its philosophical navelgazing about cloning and souls, and starts to make less sense, culminating in an ending almost stubbornly insistent on abruptly following through with its initial setup despite having abandoned it after the first 30 minutes.
As such, we basically get a movie that feels as though it were filmed in two distinct pieces; the first 20 minutes and last 5 minutes, and then the rest, and then made to tie in together.
It feels disjointed and like a waste of a perfectly decent sci-fi concept, but the worst sin of it all is that it is just flat-out boring.
