The 6th Day probably won't win any awards for originality, and it doesn't have to. The sole purpose of this movie is entertaining its audience. After viewing the film, I'm pleased to say that I was highly entertained. Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as a man who has been cloned. We tag along with Arnold on his journey to find out why he's been cloned, and why he's being hunted by Michael Rooker and his group of laser toting assassins. What's unique to this movie is the fact that it's set in the not to distant future. Some of the technology that is shown in the film, may become reality within the next ten to twenty years. Cars that drive themselves, appliances that inform you when you're in need of milk and cloning procedures that would've only been considered science fiction twenty years ago. The action set pieces are exciting and there is some good humor in the film. Particularly one very funny sequence that involves a doll called a Sim-Pal. Arnold has his one liners to throw around, and it's good to see him back in form. He's been absent from films like this for too long. Another good thing about the movie is the rating. The PG-13 rating allows just about everyone to enjoy this movie. There are a few choice words here and there, and some people getting blasted by lasers, but that's about it. The 6th Day is good entertainment. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.
