Day of the Clones

A very poor attempt of filmaking , from acting to score it was not good at all. I gave it one for the storyline potential but it looked like a bad school project thrown together pointlessly.

The acting was atrocious as was the locations and I've never seen the same car drive down the same road or a burnt out car shown so repeatedly in a single movie before.

The effects were also very poor and it's safe to say this is one of the worst movies I have ever watched and although the message it trying to portray was viable it could have been done a whole lot better than was given here.

If your looking for a sci fi/horror extravaganza you will be bitterly disappointed.

Don't waste th 90 mins.

Well worth a watch! This is a great film. From start to finish this film oozes creativity and has an excellent storyline.

As far as I know this is the only movie made entirely in lockdown! Interesting seeing the buildings and streets deserted. There are lots of images in this film that you will never see again and it was quite eerie seeing a very busy city centre without any pe pole bustling about and the Manchester Trams all at a standstill.

It kept my attention from beginning to end with a few surprises along the way and a little twist!!

A talented cast and very well filmed especially in the fog and snow. Very atmospheric!

For a film made on a budget, this is very clever indeed!

No redeeming quality beyond the concept. A group of friends with £50 to spare, an editing app and free time. Cannot recommend for any other reason than ideal for students on the pitfalls of making a movie without any prior knowledge of movie making. I truly wish I could give some praise beyond, 'Well at least you tried.' But even within the constraints of a severely limited budget, no special effects, no costumes (unless gaffer tape and work-wear count) and no lighting except your mums least favourite lamp this is the sci-fi equivalent of a damp lettuce and ham sandwich that cost less than £1. Can't wait for the sequel.

I'm surprised this film is not more widely known. It's the only film I've seen that documents the pandemic lockdown and tells an action sci-fi story on what is obviously a very low budget. Sure the robot looks a bit dodgy, but the acting is good by pretty much everyone and the musical score is excellent. There are some tense moments here too, like when the clones attack. I thought it was really well done and highly imaginative for such a small budget. There are some great visual imges here, like the snowy and foggy streets, and the story really makes you think. The film starts with a chilling warning. In the future human clones that are used as slave labour rebel and try to create a perfect society by destroying mankind. This will be more and more relevant as time goes by. The scenes of the empty city streets are eerie. The filmmakers are to be commended for making a truly unique film. I don't know if any other film that tried to tell a story like this during lockdown. Watch it but don't expect a normal film.

This film really captured something essential and special that's lacking in so many bigger budget films. At first I was thrown off a bit by the indie quality of the special effects make-up/props that appear early in the film. But soon I got into the story of the plight of the main characters, the survivors they come across, the threats they face and the underlying intrigue and I pretty much forgot about any low budget constraints that troubled me early on. I really enjoyed the acting, the concepts and the overall feeling of claustrophobia and threat the filmmakers created.

One really cool thing happened as I continued to watch. I got to experiencing that great nostalgic feeling of watching independent sci-fi, post-apocalyptic films in my youth at the drive-in or on late night TV in the basement where my mind could freely wander and enjoy the escape that only an independent vision made by passionate people can offer.

Honestly, it's a real shame when I see the hateful reviews of a film like this, that has so much heart, thought and sweat of real people put into it, so much authenticity that the vacuous, mass marketed products on offer can't even come close to. Bravo for your achievement!
