GEMINI MAN - A Visual Delight !



Henry Brogan, a government assassin who's on the brink of retirement suddenly finds himself being targeted by a killer who seem to know his every move. Turns out the killer is a younger clone of himself. Will Smith stars as  the titular character who must run from himself.


Director Ang Lee shot the film in HFR (High Frame Rate - 120 frames per second) which makes crystal-clear images even in 3D format. The action-pieces are the stars of the show. I loved the hand-to-hand combat scenes and I especially enjoyed the two-motorcycle chase scene between the old and young Will Smith. The de-aging of Smith is very impressive.


Critics are panning the story which has been tossed around Hollywood studios for two decades, making the dialogue quite icky. But what saves the film from further ridicule is the strong performances of its lead actors - Will Smith and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.


If you're looking for an action-packed movie which is quite innovative with technology, you will enjoy this one. To enjoy the full visual experience, better watch it in IMAX 3D. We had our advance screening at EVIA Lifestyle Center, IMAX with laser which made it hyper-realistic. It was a visual delight. Rated PG-13. From Paramount Pictures. Distributed by United International Pictures.
