Advantages: Cast, Comedy, Narrative Disadvantages: Same old Arnie character, far fetched action.
...is even more annoying. In the last week I have watched a lot of films. After visiting town to have a look around we came across four DVD’s for £10. We thought this would save us money from going out and keep us occupied. One of the films my boyfriend chose was The 6th day. I wasn’t really keen on watching it to be honest, even tough I remember vaguely watching it before. However, since we had no other films left we put this on the other day. It was ... ...and his characters remain quite the same. This film Was released in 2000 so has been out for several years. I remember watching this on tele a few years’ back and thought it was ok; I couldn’t really remember much though. INFO Director- Roger Spottiswoode
I have no idea who this was when I saw the name come up in the title sequence so I was not sure of his reputation. After looking him up Roger is a Canadian director and has been directing since ...

Advantages: Humourous and full of action Disadvantages: End of film gets drawn out a little too much
...here is my second on the excellent Arnie film “The 6th Day”. I have been criticised in recent reviews for giving only information on the product, and not my personal opinion, I apologise for this and hope that this one is better for you! And thanks to those who have given me the advice!
Arnold Schwartzenegger (please excuse spelling, ill call him Arnie from now on!), stars in the film “The 6th Day” as a family man, living ... ...get his life back on the right track!
“The 6th Day” gets its name from Genesis in the Bible, chapter 1.31, where it clearly states that on the 6th day, God created man. Therefore the fact that within the film, people are actually being made, the title suits the film to perfection!
The film also has other stars, such as Robert Duvall, from Gone in 60 seconds among others, including the same director as the James Bond film, Tomorrow Never ...

Advantages: excellent visuals, lots of extras, arnie, action Disadvantages: storyline, arnie bit long in the tooth
...latest kill-fest is set in the not so distant future (2015 to be exact) where cloning has become more a reality than it is today. It sees Arnie as Adam Gibson, a decorated fighter pilot now running his own business doing ‘extreme sports’ joy flights for those that can afford them. Adam Gibson is the traditional family man who arrives home after a hard day at work on his birthday to see that….. he is already home, at least somebody ... ...launches the entire, slightly flimsy, story line that sees Arnie involved in laser gun shoot outs, helicopter flying antics, tonnes of stunts and general rough housing!! I usually don’t give away much of the story in my reviews so if you want to know what happens, read someone else’s.
The movie is the usual Arnie haul, slightly longer (118mins) but with a better plot than is usual for him. Think Total Recall on steroids and you are in ...

Advantages: Special effects Disadvantages: the resto of the film
...love it! You could imagine the thrill, when I finally got a DVD-player! The first movie I bought was " The 6th day"! Quiet evening, some fruits and comfy sofa - all in the right places and the movie starts. This is the point where all the fun stops!
You probably read previous reviews avout this DVD. I would not argue with them! Lots of special effects, additional stuff on the disk, cristall quality - everything is true! Then comes a disapointment. ... ...and a Hero having the last laugh at the end. I have seen it a lot of times! Clichees everywhere. Where have I seen the clones? "Judge Dredd", and they all can be produced in a day. Do the scriptwriters actually consult the scientists? I do not think so. For them all scientists are as in Hollywood movies - either mad or mad and dangerous. Most go for the second kind as more filmable. No suprise for this one!
Special effects. These days you can generate ...

...of his films on DVD. The 6th Day is one of his best films but little people seem to know about it.
The 6th Day is set some time in the future. While there aren't flying cars there are visible improvements such as you can order milk by clicking on your fridge door and your bedroom mirror says good morning to you.
Schwarzenegger plays a character called Adam Gibson. Adam works for a company which provides transport up to the mountains for ski-ing. ... ...Adam goes in search of the trurth but finds himself having to battle with people who don't want the secret that humans have been clonned to come out.
Robert Duvail, Micheal Rapaport and Sarah Wynter also star.
The 6th Day has a strong, well scripted story. Arnold is perfect in the part and completes the film. There are no slow scenes (it's an Arnie Film) with action in most scenes. If your not a Schwarzenegger fan It still worth giving this a chance ...
