Ok i so did not understand this movie please help explain.
So DeNiro's Character put his evil sons genes in with Adams, right. So the bad kids genes kept coming through? So at the end what happens does Adam come through totally or does the other kid ( When he gets snatched in the closet) And if Deniro's son was so evil why would he want to keep bringing him back? So wierd.

wrong he didn't actually put Zach's genes in Adam if you watch it again...
this is what was said: "manipulate certain genes"
he manipulated some of Adam's genes to fit Zachary's personality traits...
which is why they dind't look alike at all physically...
It was my understanding that Dr. Wells didn't even clone Adam, but cloned his son Zachary instead. He manipulated certain genes of Adam's, such as looks, smile, his eye color, etc. so that his parents would be none the wiser. But, in actuality, he was the perfect clone of his own son.
shareDr. Wells used Adam's genes...
personality wise after the age of the real Adam's death, it was a perfect clone of
Zachary...
however the cloned Adam physically loooked like the real Adam, and nothing like Zachary...
i think he manipulated the personality traits of Adam to match Zachary's...
his son Zachary died a long time ago, and he wasn't able to save Zach's DNA...
He said he was able to save "pieces" though as a map(?), when it was mentioned that he couldn't clone Zackery because he burned up so bad he couldn't get a complete cell. (nitpick: Um...unless the fire was so hot that it burned his body to ash, wouldn't he have been able to get cells anyway, from organs or bone marrow? Burns are usually superficial. Silly writers) To me that implies that he was able to resurect part of his dna sequences, but not a whole cell's worth so he put those genes into Adam. They do that sort of DNA splicing in real life, for silly reasons like that bunny they made that glowed in the dark (they added a type of jelly-fish dna) and to treat a couple of diseases, like that one that causes little kids to look like old people because they age too fast.
Here's an article about Alba the glow bunny (may she rest in peace, and not be cloned with an evil rabbit's cells) http://www.ekac.org/gfpbunny.html
remember they said something like those cells are only viable for 2 weeks or something like taht... taht's what he told the couple about Adam after he died...
shareI can understand the the crazy doctor would save his son's dna, and I can understand that he would lie to Adam's parents and say they only had two weeks in order to get them to make their decision immediately. But I don't understand where he got Adam's dna. I got the impression that the boy was already buried when he approached the parents, so where did he get the dna?
yes this movie was nothin to write home about and had plot holes (good call MIMIB, Adam was clearly already buried at that point!) but I will throw in two cents:
The Doctors son Zachery dieds around age 8. He had evil tendencies. But I think The Doctor wanted to see what would happen had the boy lived PAST 8. Maybe there was something they could do about those tendencies: I dont think he wanted the kid to wreak havok on Adams family.....(but then again maybe Im wrong....I really didnt give the flick 100% of my attention).
I also wanna say what others had said:If Adam II was part Adam part Zachery why would he look only like Adam???

The kid's hairbrush? You can do a dna test from a hair sample, but I guess that wouldn't explain the two weeks thing... But when they do an autopsy, don't they sometimes keep tissue samples? Maybe that's how they got it. (or the writers forgot he was in the ground, or they meant for it to the wake, not the funeral he accosted them at or...)
