I came out of the movie thinking the exact same thing... The "geopolitical landscape" is just so poor. The US is somehow the only superpower and a whole half of the world (the "east") is like a single poor SEA country even though they are the ones who have been heavily investing and working with mature AI for decades. Where's China and Russia in this world for example? This lack of a coherent "backstory" or just setting in general really makes me believe it was written by ChatGPT.

The AI aren't responsible for the nuclear denotation, as the movie stated, it WAS just a coding error by the opposite side of the US and they were blaming the AI as if they announced to the world that THEY just simply screwed, it would have been embarassing and made them look incompetent so they needed a scapegoat.

As is, it FEELS like that world is vast and interconnected with an enormous history to it all, because the author took the time to craft HOW EVERYTHING IN THAT WORLD WORKS, even when it was barely mentioned in the story itself. The presence of those world elements are still all there, in the background, filling in all the gaps in the 'simulation', so that it feels like a world that COULD exist. Frankly, we have too many fanfic self-insert writers in Hollyweird, and very few TRUE AUTHORS.

I watched the creator because i heard a lot of good things about it, but got disappointment even more due to that. It wasnt only very predictable if you watched a lot of movies, it also had logic errors. The giant spaceship that can only fire below itself until the last scene where it can suddenly fire around the globe. the human officers looking in the car, clearly seeing the metal parts of the child and not caring about them. The east being able to construct something so powerful that it can turn off the power all around the globe, but arent able (with AI aswell to do the the heavy work) to construct a big rocket to just shoot it. If they can construct the highest form of ai, why that instead of a way easier constructed weapon. they dont even have to aim far since the nomad always flies straight above the target anyways.The west appearing everywhere with no explanation how they found him is another thing. And if they knew where he was, why not instantly send the nomad and just bomb him and the child. Even if the tracking is not accurate enough, the nomad has enough firepower to just bomb the whole area. It feels like a lot of things are just how they are because it is convenient for the plot at that specific moment The entire movie looks beautiful, but thats kind of it.

However the plot seemed rather weak especially after the reviews started coming in. It reminded me of Prometheus, which obviously cost substantially more but had the same problems. Beautiful to look at without having any real substance. Such a shame since this movie had so much promise.

I think my least favourite plot hole in this movie occurs when Josh jumps into the water after escaping and Harun just looks at the water for five seconds, erroneously determines that Josh is dead, and then commends the ship continue on to the base. Like maybe take a couple minutes to search the hull of your floating ship to see if he’s stowing away. Human corpses float, so if he was dead you’d be able to see his body. Also why did they even keep Josh alive to begin with? It would seem logical that he’d have a tracker on him. Him being alive does nothing for New Asia.

The fact that this movie was made in current industry state, and looks so good within this budget should be considered already a success in itself. Yes, the writing and story could be better, but acting was mostly great, visuals were top notch and it was engaging to watch and experience. Calling it a failure strictly by box office numbers is unfair in this case - if they had pumped some extra money into marketing this would surely earn better money and a different story in the end.

"Lets do the anti-war trope that every other sci fi movie these days does. and we'll give it ties to Vietnam, Afghanistan, and war crimes and stuff" modern sci fi seems to be all about taking what you liked from older sci fi and seeing what different settings/characters/macguffins you can put them with. Its the kinda shit a middle school fanboy would do The creator was a beautiful movie, but it didnt do enough with its components to make it feel original. The NOMAD is just another death star, the magic kid saves the day, the protagonist realizes hes on the bad side and turns, then becoming one of the most useful assets against the real enemy.

You're completely wrong here in this statement because you're saying ONE type of AI that you want to see, in fiction you see VARIOUS types, and that stems from them being equipped with emotions. Just because they're a super computer, doesn't mean they have "advanced processing power" that lets them do everything perfectly right when the situation calls for it. They're clearly not terminators as they're WAY more human than that. Like I said to someone else. Lol you seem to think that AI can do everything just because they're AI, no bro, that's not happening at all in EVERY story featuring them as most narratives don't have AI doing what you're saying at all even though the internet has full around to it's recognizable form for at least over 25 years now, and most media don't portray Ai as this all knowing being that can just do everything perfectly, ESPECIALLY when they have emotions. They were just restricted to their bodies and couldn't just inject themselves into the web to take in every information out there or do whatever you seem for them to badly think they can. You have to LIMIT the A.I.'s capabilities in stories if you plan to overall balance in conflict between humans and AI unless you just want the robot AI to just destroy all the humans easily which they could if you portray them in their realistic capabilities like in terminator, and just because they're AI, that doesn't mean they can do everything. Every sci-fi story that's made has their own version of AI that has rules to them, and not every AI in a story can just absorb the information in the internet JUST because they're a machine, lol that's nonsense because by that logic EVERY machine can do that in a story and it would break the narrative of humans even coming CLOSE to winning anything at all. AI robots ARE naturally smarter than humans in a realistic sense but they can't do everything because they are AI, they are limited by their resources just like humans are, and most of the AI don't have all the right resources to do whatever they want, and they're in with the eastern humans who want to live in harmony in them in the opposing side of the war.

That statement applies perfectly to MTV when it launched. They needed videos and even bad music can have good visuals.

You hit the nail on the head. Story elements that don’t reflect our lived reality ring hollow. That is probably the truest critique of modern cinema.

honestly that game couldve been GREAT, the robots in the rice field actually made me want to get up out of my movie seat and walk closer to the screen... they shouldve just added maybe 5 or so more millions, and invested in a REAL story... the TENET joke went too far though i love nolan and john washinton

I strongly believe that Neill Blomkamp would have been an excellent choice to direct this movie, even though I am a fan of Gareth Edwards. I believe he could have set this story in the slums of South Africa, drawing inspiration from films like District 9 and Elysium.

What's really frustrating is that when the background details in environment end up sparking more questions that have a more interesting concept than the story we end up following throughout the film. Like the faceless robot defending the village alongside Harun. We don't get his name, but his personality comes through in the short amount of time he's on screen. Or stuff like the idea of robot monks, or robots becoming parental figures for kids in rural parts of the country. How many interesting ideas could you approach just with those images alone?

i went to the cinema for this one and i felt soooo bored, i predicted every single step of what would happened, even the ending midway, the lack of worldbuilding (example, everywhere had robots, in everywhere and everyone had one or had to interact or was part of their life, after all AI was implemented for frikin nuclear weapons, what happened with societies that rejected AI after the bombs? Dunno, sshh dont ask, what would happen to our societies if rn internet disappeared, or oil?) and of course the thing that really infuriated me, all this situation happened, what started all, because an AI decided to nuke the center of a city, why? dunno, a code error. WHAT?! so the thing that started a whole ass world war and a full 180º in most societies and they just said its an error and brushed it off. I really liked the visuals, but visuals arent a movie, this was a tech demo. (and to add, i still wonder why like 85% of the humans were absolutely atrocious people, meanwhile the robots behaved more as humans than most humans even the MC) Machines with that advance tech wouldnt fail a shot, if this happened humans wouldnt be the ones winning, Terminator or Matrix are good examples of fiction with that (just Terminator 2 showed how a "worse" terminator could stop a shitton of police officers with 100% precession)

I actually really enjoyed this movie even with some of the stupidity that's in it I still really really like it a lot. It also was very beautifully shot and I thought the access scenes were pretty good and I thought the story was pretty good yes it has some plot holes what movie doesn't have plot holes for fuck's sake. Is it the greatest real number? No it's not but when you find out that it only costs $80 million for him to do this it pretty amazing. So I would give it a 8 out of 10 for what it is. It was a very enjoyable sci-fi movie that will be a cult hit later on

Genuine question I didn’t understand from the movie. How did the nomad work? Like, throughout the movie we’ve seen it physically get to each place he wanted to destroy, scan it, and then firing the missile. In the end tho we see that it fired all of his missiles directed to different parts of Asia distant from each other while it remained still. Did I miss something?

@@Gadget-Walkmen my friend, the concept of AI in this movie might as well have been written in the 1950s. Right now, we already have AI that’s on the verge of being smarter than humans BECAUSE IT HAS ACCESS TO ALL HUMAN KNOWLEDGE VIA THE INTERNET. These robots were literally stupider than most humans. Also how about *poke* *poke* *poke* in the girl’s head, stands up “dude, I’m about to deliver to you the entire plot of this movie in three sentences because I just poked inside her head. Suddenly I know everything about her. Turns out she’s the greatest threat to mankind.” 😂😂😂😂 Time to send the slow running bomb robot at the enemies so they have time to either escape or destroy him from a distance before he blows them up instead of just firing a f*king missile at them. I don’t mean to be mean, but narratively speaking, this movie is an absolute joke. Gareth Edwards did a fantastic job getting fresh visuals with his style of VFX integrated filmmaking, but he is certainly not a writer.

@@ChristopherCopeland No, just NO! Completely against most of EVERYTHING that which you're saying here. The concept of AI in this movie was NOT "might as well have been written in the 1950s." in the slightest as you just seem to believe that AI can do everything just because they're supercomputers. No, they're sentient beings that can reason AND have emotions as seen in this movie. When you give an AI full on emotions, than it's starting to be a person who can full think for themselves and make logically and rash decisions like any other human being. The robots were NOT "literally sTuPiDer tHaN mOst HuMaNs" AT ALL, they were just restricted to their bodies and couldn't just inject themselves into the web to take in every information out there. Lol you seem to think that AI can do everything just because they're AI, no bro, that's not happening at all in EVERY story featuring them as most narratives don't have AI doing what you're saying at all even though the internet has full around to it's recognizable form for at least over 25 years now, and most media don't portray Ai as this all knowing being that can just do everything perfectly, ESPECIALLY when they have emotions.. You have to LIMIT the A.I.'s capabilities in stories if you plan to overall balance in conflict between humans and AI unless you just want the robot AI to just destroy all the humans easily which they could if you portray them in their realistic capabilities like in terminator, and just because they're AI, that doesn't mean they can do everything. Every sci-fi story that's made has their own version of AI that has rules to them, and not every AI in a story can just absorb the information in the internet JUST because they're a machine, lol that's nonsense because by that logic EVERY machine can do that in a story and it would break the narrative of humans even coming CLOSE to winning anything at all. AI robots ARE naturally smarter than humans in a realistic sense but they can't do everything because they are AI, they are limited by their resources just like humans are, and most of the AI don't have all the right resources to do whatever they want, and they're in with the eastern humans who want to live in harmony in them in the opposing side of the war. This should be obvious here as the AI aren't trying to rule everything, they just want to live in peace in nature with the humans they are with in the war. That's it. "Also how about poke poke poke in the girl’s head, stands up “dude, I’m about to deliver to you the entire plot of this movie in three sentences because I just poked inside her head. Suddenly I know everything about her. Turns out she’s the greatest threat to mankind.” 😂😂😂😂" What? What are you even saying right now? You're not making any sense in this statement at all here because I have NO idea on what you mean AT ALL here as what you're saying didn't happen in the film. "Time to send the slow running bomb robot at the enemies so they have time to either escape or destroy him from a distance before he blows them up instead of just firing a f*king missile at them." They DID have missiles and they WERE firing at them with it, they were just using a bomb robot as well to get close in range to target all the people in closed groups. This is obvious if you were actually paying attention to what's going. The bomb robot can't be easily destroyed at all, it's a running tank of a machine, this is made clear but they didn't know that the child would shut down the bomb robot they already had PRE-made. This is also obvious here. "I don’t mean to be mean, but narratively speaking, this movie is an absolute joke." Disagree entirely so as it's FAR from an "abSoLuTe JoKe" at all. While the movie DOEs pull from other influences in it's narrative pretty clearly as it does have a "yeah we kinda saw this stuff before." The plot and writing of the movie is well executed enough to be coherent for the most part. "Gareth Edwards did a fantastic job getting fresh visuals with his style of VFX integrated filmmaking, but he is certainly not a writer." He IS a writer whose competent enough to write out an engaging enough story that people are interested in seeing that's heavily elevated from it's fantastic visuals and great set-pieces with compelling enough characters you want to follow and see through. The movie isn't perfect, but it's nowhere NEAR as problematic as you are making it out to be or what filmento has said either. A movie doesn't to be ENTIRELY original for it's story to have a plot that no one has EVER seen before, it JUST needs to be well done and well executed for people to want to see in the big screen, which the movie IS and does very well.
