Pretty disappointed...

The plot itself is incredibly thin. A scientist has lung cancer and is dying, but that plot point isn't revisited at all, and she is constantly watching a robot clone of her mother constantly being killed and its clearly effecting her. So as the cloning project comes to an end, she tries to help her clone mother escape. That's it. And it's not fantastically entertaining either. Jung_E, the clone, is in about three scenes. The rest of the film is just a regular drama.

Additionally, the film was far too heavy handed on its exposition dumping, leaving almost nothing for the viewers to interpret and essentially insulting the viewers intelligence.

The CGI was so inconsistent, ranging from beautiful establishing shots showing the city theyre set, to clunky robots when live action and CGI is mixed on screen together.
