Gemini Man was a fun movie for me, but IMDb (5.7/10) and Rotten Tomatoes (26%) scores don't seem to agree. Directed by Ang Lee and starring Will Smith, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Clive Owen, the storyline is about...
"A retiring assassin, Henry Brogan, finds himself pursued by a mysterious killer that can predict his every move. Discovering that he's being hunted by a younger clone of himself, Henry needs to find out why he's being targeted and who the creator is."
Overall, it was a fun movie, if you want a fun popcorn kind of movie.
It's about Brogan (Smith) being a retired assassin, suddenly finding his ex-peers all getting killed off and of course, he's next on the list.
But the agent hired to take him out is crazy good, being able to anticipate Brogan's every move. The initial confrontations are pretty fun little skirmishes, but as the film carries on, Brogan finds out that his new, young enemy is a clone of himself. But to be made to be better than any other human.
As the movie progresses, Brogan works his way back to the mastermind of it all, only to be confronted by yet a a bigger, badder, faster version of even his own clone.

Like I said, if you like this kind of assassin on assassin kind of film, I think you won't be bored. If you're looking for the next Gone With The Wind, you will be sorely disappointed.
And that is m short, quickie review of Gemini Man.
