20256.8Sci-Fi, Kaland

"Bong Joon-ho delivers one of the most anticipated sci-fi films of 2025. The story follows a future space-colonization mission where so-called disposable humans are sent to deadly tasks and then cloned again. The protagonist is one of these clones who slowly discovers his own value and identity. The film combines dark humor and philosophy while building a visually striking futuristic world. Robert Pattinson gives a standout performance by playing multiple variations of the same character. At its core, the story examines the value of human life and the moral limits of technology. Intelligent and thought-provoking sci-fi."
