King of Clones Reviews
Rolling Stone
Chris Vognar
Were revere scientific progress... We also fear that progress, its capacity for transgression in a field that the layperson struggles to understand. The new Netflix documentary King of Clones presents a smart look at this dichotomy.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
A primer on the rise and fall of Hwang, a former superstar who currently plies his genetics trade in the United Arab Emirates.
Decider
John Serba
King of Clones is an admirably concise and potent condensation of complex material. It tackles a thorny, thorny topic with assured confidence, although it ultimately leaves us wanting a little more.
Common Sense Media
Sabrina McFarland
The film, with its oftentimes high-tech premise, can be an educational and enlightening view of clone technology. "Some say cloning is wrong," notes Dr. Hwang Woo-suk in King of Clones.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Mr. Thayi doesn't tell a straightforward version of the Hwang story, because he's after more -- the story of cloning itself, which will be enlightening for those of us on the fringes of science.
