Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTony Scott and Curtis Hanson were attached to the movie in the '90s when Disney was producing the movie. Because computer effects were not advanced enough at the time, the studio cancelled the project.
- GoofsSince Will Smith played both characters they have an identical accent. This is a common error in fiction with clones -the clones of Jango Fett all speaking with his accent, for example. Since accent is not a genetic factor but is influenced throughout a person's life and develops based on environmental factors it is impossible for these two characters to share an accent so perfectly. The same is true for personality, likes/dislikes and moral imperatives.
- Alternate versionsThe Indian theatrical release received some verbal cuts (4 cuss words) before being given a U/A rating. An anti-smoking disclaimer was also added.

Featured review
Clearly this movie is fighting itself, same as Will Smith fighting himself.
Action, pace, scenery, photography, fight sequences are above par, but why didn't anyone have a thorough look at the story...?
This could have been a great movie with a proper scenario that would engage into the characters and their conflict...but its not.
I suggest you watch the film. It is not a waste of time, but it will leave you with an "off" taste or feeling at the end when you realize all the lost potential.
5/10 because Ang Lee is a great director and could have done so much better with this.
