This movie was funny and relate-able in a good way. Most family guys will identify with Doug. His wife wants to go back to work, his job keeps getting larger and his family responsibilities just keep growing. What better way to solve this than to clone yourself? Except this movie also shows that the easy solution isn't always the right solution.
In the process of trying to juggle the consequences of his decision to keep cloning himself, Doug realizes some important facts.
1. Life may be hectic but it is more rewarding through the chaos: I promised no spoilers for those who haven't viewed this 90s movie. I'll just say taking the easy route doesn't always turn out the best route in the long run.
2. More time does NOT equal more fulfillment : this principle was underneath the whole movie. Sure his solution gave Doug more time, but it caused other complications that weren't worthwhile.
3. In Conclusion: Great movie to show the consequences of cloning human life in a funny way. I'm not in favor of cloning human life. God created life and I don't think cloning is His design even if we figure out a way to safely do it.
That being said, I enjoyed this movie and thought it made its point, wrapped up nicely and was a worthwhile watch. Some movies are stupid and a waste of your time. This movie was funny and illustrated some key truths that made it a fun movie to watch without feeling like I wasted 90 minutes of my life. If you haven't seen it (which most people probably have), you may enjoy Multiplicity.
