JamieWJackson The thing about this dumb movie is that they never tried to pretend you wouldn't notice that it's dumb. They just opted to have fun anyway and you get to watch. Occasionally the acting is almost OK, but that never gets in the way of this being a dumb, but fun, movie. Obviously there are plenty of plot holes and practically everything is contrived, but they never give us a reason to care about that.Two Ali Landrys? Nice! Ali looking yummy while chugging beers and burping? Of course we want to see that!! This is the kind of movie that probably came from a couple of friends making each other laugh while brainstorming at a party, or something. It never gets much above that level, but it doesn't try to. It's fluff, but it's fun fluff. If that's what you're looking for, you'll enjoy it.Be warned that it does get somewhat raunchy. While there's not quite any actual nudity, there is plenty of "adult situation" material.

Mattias I really didn't expect much when I sat down to watch this. After all, what can you expect from a movie that has "National Lampoon" on the cover or Eugene Levy in the cast? And to a extent I got was I expected: a "Weird Science" for the 21st century with a silly script and lame actors who has a problem with timing their lines.The surprise was Kate herself or rather Repli-Kate, played by Ali Landry. I loved how she played the manly Repli-Kate, burping and guzzling beer, a big contrast with the sweet Kate the journalist. I wish the movie would have gone more into the aspect of male and female stereotypes to poke fun at them, unfortunately the producers preferred to have Eugene Levy running around shouting "penis" to everyone.

colfersean My God. This is an awful film. How anyone thought this would be a success is beyond me. Landry looks like a fish out of water (a fish with a good body, I'll have you, but a fish nonetheless), and the direction and script are frankly laughable. A definate no-go for anyone who does not wish to undergo the same horrible experience as yours truly. 0/10

Victor Field There are movies which go directly to video in the UK (and the US) without deserving such a fate. And then there are movies like "Repli-Kate," which was apparently billed as coming from the producers of "American Pie," but also comes from the writers and directors of movies no one's seen.Anyway, this so-called comedy has two university genetics assistants working on a cloning project under arrogant Eugene Levy; one of them, through circumstances I just can't be bothered to go over, gets a few drops of a "Popular Science" reporter's blood onto a glass slide and replicates said reporter. Does said reporter look like Vanessa Feltz? No, of course not; she looks like the Once and Forever Doritos Girl - no one would watch (or finance) this movie if she wasn't fanciable.As the reporter and her clone, Ali Landry isn't the worst person in the history of film to play twins; it has to be said, though, that her remarkable looks are among the movie's few real plusses among a whole ton of minuses, from its stereotyping of both men and women to some painfully crass humour (though not quite as much as there could have been) - even Eugene Levy can't get much laughs out of a script that includes such gems as a genetic research firm based in Rome called "GenItalia," and excludes anything resembling sense. But what finally dooms "Repli-Kate" is its stunningly obvious "lessons," i.e. Be Careful What You Wish For, You Might Get It; Men Changing Women Is Never A Good Idea; etc. Even the games it plays with stereotypes are fumbled because all the characters are stereotyped themselves - the movie tries to have it both ways and ends up pleasing nobody. But if your idea of fun is watching Ali Landry belching and wetting herself, knock yourself out... and I pity you. Of course, if your idea of fun is watching Ali Landry running around in lingerie, which she does on several occasions in this movie...
