The 6th Day

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
Smile for the camera, Mr. Gibson!


Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, this Sci Fi movie takes place in a not-too-distant future where limited cloning technology has come into use for a number of things, from curing diseases to re-animating your pet to cloning fish as a food supply. However, cloning people is illegal. Arnie plays helicopter charter pilot Adam Gibson, a man who unintentionally gets involved with a human cloning cabal, who will kill him to protect their secrets.

The title comes from Genesis 1:31, "And on the sixth day God created man," which ends up being plot-relevant. The official title is "The 6th Day," not "The Sixth Day," changed to prevent it from being confused with another film that came out the year before.

Tropes used in The 6th Day include:

Natalie (Adam's Wife): "Is this because of the cigars?!"

Adam Gisbon and Adam Gibson: Cool.
