If I can make a doll exactly like me, is there a need for me to exist?

I flipped through the synopsis in advance, and saw the introduction to the Doctor (BOSS) like this - "The founder and operator of the clone project, his attitude towards clones is outrageous, and he can use any means to achieve his goals." ( From Baidu) This is good, the stereotype has fallen. But by the end of the film, my hatred for the Doctor was not as strong as I had expected. why? I couldn't help but think. what! Because I feel the fear of clones in this movie, the unexpected fear balances my sympathy for clones. There are several scenes in the movie that made me start thinking about things from a human standpoint (in the early part of the film, influenced by the synopsis, I stand on the moral high ground and have sympathy for clones), which is the beginning of my fear of clones. First, the cloned Lincoln can easily enter the encrypted house of the employer Lincoln Technology; secondly, the clone's ability to learn quickly (of course, it is explained in the film that this is because the cloned Lincoln has the memory of the employer). On the one hand, Clone Lincoln quickly mastered the Scottish accent of his employer; on the other hand, when Clone Lincoln stood with his employer and it was difficult to tell the truth from the fake, he put the bracelet on his employer's hand when he was not prepared, which directly caused his employer to was shot. After that, he talked to the mercenary who was following him as if nothing had happened. At this time, the clone Lincoln showed not only "smart", but more "cunning". Compared with the innate quality of "smart", "cunning" can only be obtained after being tempered by human beings. At this time, Clone Lincoln has only escaped for less than a day (no research, it is not long anyway). You might say that he inherited the memory and humanity of his employer Lincoln, but as a result, when the two are indistinguishable, it is the employer Lincoln who dies in the end. With the above two points, clone Lincoln quickly replaced its employer. Here, the uniqueness of man is denied. It reminds me of the sentence Aozaki orange said in "The Realm of the Sky: The Cave of Garan", "If I can make a doll exactly like me, is it necessary for me to exist?" What do you think? I don't know your answer - "it's not necessary", A equal to B, there is really no need to repeat it; "it is necessary", I can't find a reason to convince myself. In the film, Clone Lincoln said he would do anything in order to survive. This is understandable, but when he said this, his azure blue eyes were dormant with murderous intent, which made people scared. Fear is fear, think about it, this is also common sense. A creature deprives another creature of the right to live in order to survive, so is it not the case with humans. It's just that this kind of thought took root in the cloned Lincoln's brain at such a rapid rate that it was terrifying - I thought that clones were the vulnerable group in this movie, but I didn't expect it to take the opportunity so quickly. Anti-kill! In short, if the plot of this movie was to escape the clone island - return to the clone island - liberate the clones, it would not make me repeat my position; the wonderful thing is that its plot is to escape the clone island - kill - Return to clone island - kill - liberate clones, which adds a lot of controversy and possibility to this film! By the end, the cloned Lincoln became Lincoln. I can't help but wonder if being human is the destination for clones? If so, which is the smarter option than killing them or using them as a tool? The film came to an abrupt end, and I felt it wasn't fun enough. It would be better if there was more discussion about the future of human clones.

    In 2019, there will be such a high-level clone society. The entertainment effect is very good. The ideology is still a lot worse. There are also many unreliable points in the plot. It seems that McGregor has been smiling and taking photos too long.

    Can I say that the so-called Island is actually the promised Communism. . .
