Storyline

A teenage scientist/lab technician named Max Fleming has just met the woman of his dreams -- beautiful, smart and sexy magazine reporter Kate Carson, who is trying to gain some scientific information from Max for an article she's working on about the lab where Max works. Unfortunately, a science geek like Max isn't Kate's type. One day, during an experiment, Max accidentally clones Kate. With the help of his buddy, Henry, Max takes advantage of the situation and transforms his Repli-Kate into a more mature and masculine-centered type of person -- a perfect mate. But when Max's maniacal boss, Dr. Jonas, has the real Kate return to finish her story on the genetic lab, Max is thrilled. Soon, Max realizes that the real Kate represents true perfection and love rather than the over-the-top Repli-Kate. Soon, the real Kate begins to fall for Max too, until she discovers Max's little secret.

Silly, but fun

Men always dream about a 'perfect' woman, a woman who likes football, drinking beer and sex. In this film, two scientists accidentally clone a beautiful reporter and program her to be the perfect woman. But the clone is more than they bargained for and soon they find out that having sex all day isn't all fun. Things complicate even more when the original woman turns up and the boys have to deal with both women.

Repli-Kate is to some extend a pretty entertaining film. The script may be predictable and the acting an directing are a bit tame, but the film manages to sustain it's charm al through to the end and provides some big laughs. I recommend watching this film with a big audience, best of all on a filmfestival. I'm pretty sure it'll only be half as funny on TV. Check it out, if you like it silly and a bit sexy. 6.5/10
