I went into this movie blind after it was recommended by Claressa Shields (the boxer) on her social media. Pleasantly surprised to discover a mix of comedy, social commentary, sci-fi and horror.
Now the comedy was done well enough so as to not destroy the sinister undertone which courses throughout the story. Quite a hard feat to pull off, but they managed it very well, so despite some of the zany comedic moments there was always that sense of foreboding in the background. (I won't go into specifics about the story to avoid spoilers.)
The acting was top notch by the entire cast. Directing and cinematography very well done. Wonderful funk-inspired soundtrack which was used to great effect. The script was also very good, both the story and the dialog between the characters.
Overall, They Cloned Tyrone is a great sci-fi/comedy which I'd definitely recommend you check out. Not the funniest movie in the world, not the most science fictiony, just a perfect balance somewhere in between. I'll give this one an 8.
