thoroughly disappointed

I haven't seen it, or heard of it. Tell us more.

The story is about a family with an eight year old boy. The boy dies the day after his eigth birthday. A doctor approaches the couple and gives them the oportunity to get their son back...or at least a perfect clone of their son. They decide to do it and even give him the same name. Then after his eight birthday...he begins to change.

I won't give you anymore in case you want to see it.

The critics hated this film (3% favorable reviews with no good reviews from the major critics). I doubt I'd bother to waste my time:

Erm, I probably won't see it. The reviews sound horrible. I wasn't all that fond of A.I. though either.

"A.I." was far superior but even then the typical Spielberg sentimentality took over and could have Kubrick turning in his grave. The little boy was just a bit too sweet and demure and the mother and father were both very weak characters. What could have been poignant and profound verged on the maudlin. Jude Law stole the movie.

(I was waiting for Osmond to utter, "I see live people.")
