Using technology to get a second chance at life is one of the great themes of sci fi, from Frankenstein to Charly to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. But sometimes it's the movies themselves that need a second chance! Tonight we take a look at two films that came with great pedigrees, but somehow failed to find their audience, and ask if they deserve another shot! First up is George Segal in Micchael Chrichton's The Terminal Man, followed by Matt Damon in Alexander Payne's Downsizing!
