Spencer Olham is arrested because Major Hathaway believes he is a cyborg posing as a human, set to explode when he gets close to the chancellor. The human race has been at war with the Alpha Centauri for decades, and there is a climate of fear many are willing to kill first, and ask questions later. The cyborg replica is perfect, after all. It even has Spencer’s memories. So the fact that he knows he’s a human means nothing. His protests mean nothing.
This was a fast-paced sci-fi action thriller that had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. There were details I could nitpick, but I willing suspended disbelief for this exciting story with such an ominous question at its center: Is Spencer human? He himself begins to doubt as time goes by.
I thought I had the ending figured out and I was *almost* right. But it did surprise me.
This movie was chilling, thought-provoking, and fun to watch. An easy 4/5 stars and a fun evening watch. If you have Netflix streaming, just queue it up and click play!
I found it thick with torture and inhumane treatment. I couldn’t finish it, but in the end was he a cyborg?
It would be tough to handle if you’re sensitive to violence. I am a bit myself, but in this case it was plot-relevant, so I was okay with it. I don’t know how to answer your question, though. There is a simple yes or no answer to it, but ultimately the ending had more surprises than just that. If you really don’t want to see the middle, I suggest skipping to the last five minutes or so and seeing for yourself what happened. You’ll probably find it shocking!
