The 6th Day (2000)

Arnie gives what may be his worst performance since Hercules in New York (1969); he was dubbed in it and it would've improved matters had they followed the same tactics here. He's awful.
The script probably read like a Philip K Dick adaptation on paper, specifically Total Recall, and I suspect it was exactly that kind of kinetic, twisty sci-fi experience the producers wanted to replicate. Instead, they got two hours of bad acting and bad one-liners from the King of bad one-liners.
