Spoilers, if you care..
She doesn't remember him well, but he does. Looks like he cares about her, and she can't understand this. She doesn't kill him, she sleeps with him. For this, he's consider a traitor by his 'congress' and she's a traitor for her rebellion's friends.
It doesn't matter. She learns that every person that dies is cloned again. They are all clones. Years ago the cure stopped the people from dying, but made them sterile. He has cloned himself teaching the younger self over and over the story and his research to find a definite cure, because the cloning can't go on forever. Unfortunately his brother (Jonny Lee Miller) likes this life, and sabotages his experiments by killing people and now trying to kill him too. Aeon secures the help of one rebel, her friend Sithandra (Sophie Okonedo) and survives. At the end, she wants to destroy that floating apparatus so coreographic, that keeps cloning them, and the keeper (Pete Postlewaite) inside. So I guess that all the people that died in this last battle are dead forever, there is no change for them anymore. Impossible they might have been cloned in such a short time, they actually needed a woman to make pregnant with the cloned Dna, so as I said: impossible. They're dead forever.
Now, my problems: aside from the little annoying thing that when Aeon and Trevor are talking through a glass she has one expression when you look at her, but a different one is reflexed on the glass when you look at him. Annoying yes, but not too important, if it was the only thing. No, there's more.
- She was so hurt because her sister Una (Amelia Warner) had been killed, but she finds out she has been cloned, and already reborn, which is quite fast actually. It seems like she just died a few days ago, but Trevor explained that the procedure is to make a woman pregnant with the cloned dna and then 'nature follows its course' ... well, it's not natural at all that only a few days go by from when you learn you're expecting and when you have your baby at home...
- Would she have destroyed the keeper had her sister Una not been reborn yet? Apparently her sister was everything she had in the world, and she was able to cool down a bit only after learning the truth while holding little reborn Una in her arms. What if Una had just died and not yet reborn?
- What about if Trevor had died, at the end, would she have done the same? A lot of people were killed in that battle, but only Sithandra meant something for her, but not enough to stop her. Aeon was full of big words, that lead to
- the fact that Aeon says they can't keep coming back, each time it's a little bit worse, but Keeper said she had not been cloned all these years. Only now he cloned her, so how can she say that since this is the first time she's reborn? How can she have the same dreams, visions, unsettling sensations or whatever it is that they have?
- Now that keeper is gone there won't be clones anymore, and new babies will 'probably' be born. I mean, very likely yes, but not for sure. She can't be sure since she just heard that Oren killed all the pregnant women?
- Even if we agree that humanity will go on, there will be new babies, no more clones, her plan was a success... so what? Is that it? People didn't know about clones and cures, so how can she know the rebels will stop targeting her and Trevor?? Especially since Sithandra and three others died after being sent to kill Aeon. Now she's alive and they're not. Why shouldn't they try again? It's absurd, is what it is.
Pretty images, nice actors, both Csokas and Theron, and also Jonny Lee Miller, that being completely shaven it took me a moment to realize he was the new Holmes in America. :-)
Aside from them, the rest is meaningless. Totally absurd. Pretty images with no real story.
