Replikator is a science-fiction film released in 1994, directed by Phillip Jackson and starring Michael St. Gerard, Brigitte Bako, and Ned Beatty. The movie follows a reporter named Max Green (played by Michael St. Gerard) who investigates a high-tech laboratory and ends up being drawn into a dangerous conspiracy. The film is set in the near future, in a world where cloning technology has advanced to the point that people can be replicated on a molecular level. A company called Centrus uses this technology for their own purposes, including creating "replicants" for military applications. However, Centrus has also secretly developed a new type of replicator that can clone living beings, including humans.

Max Green, who works for the Metro News Network, is assigned to investigate Centrus and their activities. Along the way, he meets a scientist named Eva Soderstrom (played by Brigitte Bako) who has been working on the replicator at Centrus. Eva is being blackmailed by her boss, Dr. Viallini (played by Ned Beatty), who wants her to use the replicator to help him take over the world.

As Max delves deeper into the conspiracy, he discovers that there are people willing to kill to keep the replicator a secret. He is captured, injected with a tracking device, and sent on a wild goose chase across the city. With the help of Eva, Max manages to escape and ultimately, he uncovers the truth about Centrus and the replicator.

Replikator is a fast-paced, action-packed thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The movie features some impressive special effects, particularly in the scenes where the replicator is used. The performances of the lead actors are solid, with Michael St. Gerard delivering a convincing portrayal of a tough, street-smart reporter who is willing to go to any lengths to get the story.

Brigitte Bako is also impressive as the brilliant scientist with a conscience, who struggles with the ethics of her work. Ned Beatty, as the villainous Dr. Viallini, is suitably menacing, delivering a satisfyingly evil performance.

The movie's plot is well-crafted, with plenty of twists and turns to keep the audience engaged. The subplots involving Max's relationships with his colleagues and his estranged ex-wife add some depth to the character and help to humanize him.

One of the strengths of Replikator is its attention to detail in creating a believable world where cloning technology exists. The movie explores the ethical implications of replication, including the possibility of cloning human beings, and raises questions about the limits of science and the role of corporations in technological progress.

Overall, Replikator is an entertaining film that will appeal to fans of science-fiction thrillers. It has a well-conceived plot, impressive special effects, and solid performances from its cast. If you're looking for an action-packed movie that explores the darker side of science and technology, then Replikator is definitely worth a watch.
