  Didn’t expect this to be an absurdist comedy going in, but I didn’t mind it overall. The comedic timing was solid for the most part, the biggest flaw with the film is that it has no focus. I was hoping for a character study featuring Robert Pattinson as the focus dealing with the morality and consequences of being reprinted and having a clone of himself, and it starts off just like that, but again through the lenses of an absurdist…

Unfortunately, the film focuses more on the conflict and less on the characters themselves, making it hard to connect and feel for them when the crap hits the fan. There are plenty of YA tropes abound (pointless lingo, 30 year olds pretending to be teens, shallow relationships, characters set up as…
