Real scientists, especially geneticists, would never use the word "evolve" to describe the development of an individual organism, as happens repeatedly in this film.

Species evolve; individuals do not.

When Elsa finds Clive and Dren in the barn, she stands in the wide-open door.

In the next shot, from outside, Elsa throws the barn door open and runs out.

When Dren hangs upside down from the rafter in the barn, her dress doesn't fall down around her shoulders.

In two separate scenes, an outdoor shot of the apartment building shows a gray snowy day, while the interior shot shows sun shining through the windows.

When Ginger and Fred meet in the case at the shareholders' meeting, they began to hiss and protract their claws and fangs.

From behind, Ginger's fang is already out, and Fred begins to push his out.

In the next shot, Ginger pushes her fang out for the first time.

In the first scene when Clive and Elsa take Dren to the barn, it is night, but when they go inside, there is sun streaming through the skylights.

Really good watch, will likely watch again, and can recommend.Warning: there is a sexual assault, so if that triggers you, then please don't watch.

I thought Canadians and Italians had more on the ball. This movie proves you do not need to be in Hollywood to make 'B' movies, think Plan 9 from Outer Space with immature executives and a M n F lab partners who should have been in jail for domestic violence.

No surprise that it found it's way to Netflix. It was either there or the DVD junk bin at Walmart.

From basically the first 5 minutes of the movie i hated the blonde doctor. Super annoying, super pushy, doesnt listen, and makes the worst decisions possible.

Well! It was definitely a movie, and I definitely did watch it.

Stupidity. These people are not believable scientists.

Aware that the nowadays Science Fiction is no longer is fully exploited with lowest production like this, the whole premise and concept already was born to flop, starting with one the most essential element, the lack of truthfulness, utterly utopic and flimsy indeed, a large laboratory with ultimate operating procedures is hard to believe in such preposterous, as fictional offer we can jump this for a while and look forward for what's coming ahead, the hybrid human falling in love by their creators, aside the ethical issues, letting the movie lame and hazardous, those facts blemish the science itself, of course it was done for pure entertainment purposes, but somehow spoils the whole project for overcame the boundaries that nobody dared to go, what's hell happened to Adrien Brody accepted such madness stays overcast by darkest clouds, my brother Pedro once more gave this movie, I 'll return to him with politeness due he gave me priceless movies and I want to keep our friendship for good!!

Splice starts out with a strong plot with an idea that could've really been more developed as the film went on. However, this movie slowly moves away from the scientific explorations of these 2 researchers, and goes into a weirder, and, honestly, uncomfortable story about love and emotion.

I don't know what the people who are hating this movie are smoking. This movie is really good.
