Robots go mental and investigators try to figure it out.

Great world building, but everything is monotone and it goes totally crazy most of the way through. It would have been better if it stayed grounded in its initial location as the world-building was great there. Ultimately disappointing.

Corporate and terrorist factions fight over the technology to resurrect people shortly after death.

Even-toned from acting, to pace, to the subtleties of world-building; excellent.

A couple moves to a quiet and friendly town, but the wife, with no job and her kids grown up, has enough free time to be unhappy.

I didn't like it compared to The Stepford Wives - (1975 movie).

A couple moves to a quiet and friendly town, but the wife, with no job and her kids grown up, has enough free time to be unhappy.

Many movies build very slowly, and this one comes from a time when that was acceptable. So if you can handle have the patience to not fidget while you wait for "the big reveal" then you will definitely like this.

After losing his wife, a scientist goes mad and begins cloning her.

I can't comprehend how anyone could deal with the conflict of tones in this movie. It's definitely not light-hearted or a romance; it's main focus is dark as all hell. Definitely not recommended.

possibly coming later

Don't watch this, see Star Wars II.I - Attack of the Phantom - (2001 movie) instead. Even at a lower quality it's.. well it's better I guess.

Make sure you have Star Wars - Episode III - Revenge of the Sith - (2005 movie) lined up to watch immediately after.

A government assassin learns he has been cloned by a rogue lab bent on raising an army of perfect soldiers.

A fair movie. It brings nothing new or interesting, and has generally uninspired writing and action. Thinking back on it, it does seem derivative of so many other movies.
