Schwarzenegger may not be the most talented actor out there, but he certainly is an iconic one. Those huge muscles and distinctive accent really make him stand out. That is probably why I grabbed "The 6th Day" when I was bored one night. Sometime in the future, the world discovered cloning and then banned it under the 6th day law. The 6th day refers to the day God created man on Earth. Anyway it's illegal and cloning has been banned. After a little mishap that I don't want to spoil, Arnold finds that he has been cloned and the company that mistakenly did it is out to kill him before his other half sees him. Arnold has to figure out what is going on and save his family. It's a pretty run-of-the-mill sci-fi action flick even if it creates a few interesting ethical concerns about cloning. Bruce Willis' recent "Surrogates" draws quite a few parallels. Anyways, it isn't a bad film. The action is decent and it is super funny to see some Arnold on Arnold action (Don't tell me you didn't want to see that). Plus, it has one of the best action one-liners of all time, when you hear it, you'll know what I'm talking about. If you're bored and have netflix, check it out, if you don't, do whatever you want.
