They cloned Tyrone is a creative and thrilling ride, with several twists and turns. The trio of John Boyega, Jamie Foxx and Teyonah Parris are bursting with great chemistry, confidently leading this movie. The brilliance of this movie is mostly tied to this trio.
They cloned Tyrone's biggest flaw is its plot. It's bold and expansive but needs ample explanation which isn't always done satisfyingly. The movie starts well but as the twists and turns begin to unfold, it losses its cohesiveness; plot holes and untasteful cases of convenience show up. In a world of other recent blaxploitation flicks like Jordan Peele's Get Out, They cloned Tyrone pales in comparison solely because of how its plot is wrapped up, but it's a good entry for the genre especially with the performance of its leads.
