Godsend

A genius geneticist (Robert De Niro) approaches a bereaved couple (Greg Kinnear, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos) with a limited-time-only offer to clone their deceased son: "This is extremely against the law." All goes well until the duplicate's eighth birthday, when he passes the age of his predecessor and becomes an overnight problem child -- a viable science-fiction premise strangled by bloodless photography and brainless plotting. The end brings us no nearer a resolution than the monotonous middle. With Cameron Bright; directed by Nick Hamm. 2004.
