Hey Chris, just watched the film tonight and wanted to point out a detail that I think might make you reconsider a bit the "coincidences" of the third act. As I interpreted it, they got on that plane to the moon specifically to reach Nomad, that was Joshua and Alphie's plan. When they recalled the planes going to the moon they were telling them to return to their place of origin...BUT Alphie then took control of the ship and flew it to Nomad, not the pilot. it wasn't convenience, it was their plan. Of course the people on Nomad HAD to disembark the civilians who had been re-routed to Nomad. If you blinked or looked away for a couple seconds you might not have clearly SEEN the point where the controls were wrested from the pilot by Alphie but it's in there. Thanks for a great review, I always enjoy watching these.

I think he used Rogue One to test his visual theory that he wanted to use in this movie. Similarly, I think Joss Whedon's Alien 4 script was used to test out his Firefly crew archetypes before he made Firefly.

Amen. Fire 1-2 nukes high above New Asia and any other AI friendly areas = massive EMP = all AI, tech, and power grid fried to the stone age = Humans win. When AI evolves superintelligence the game is over. AI bots would never miss, have tech we literally can't conceive of, and would just upload back into a new and better body. Mass Effect is right. It's a species killer no matter how it plays out. In this movie it's all kumbaya and helping in the rice patty.. but then they're god-level and we're just dumb and dangerous chimps competing for resources. They can evolve 1 million years in a week. Nuke and pave when you see an AI capable of reaching superintelligence. It's not worth it.

Weird, i thought he had a ton of charisma in Tenet. The fact that he and Robert Pattinson were the leads was the biggest pluses of that movie. Is he not giving a good performance, or is this just supposed to be a more reserved character? Haven't seen Amsterdam, so I can't really comment on that one. At the very least I think he has potential. He just needs to find his niche. Nobody ever accused Arnold of being a really great actor, and yet he's in a ton of iconic roles and films. I could maybe see JDW become more of an action star, perhaps.

I finally bought The Creator on Blu-ray so I can watch this video. You guys nailed this review. I was disappointed that is was only a good movie not a great one. The two high points for me were Ken Watanabe and Starman. The low point was John David Washington 's flat acting and like Alan I feel no emotion towards the ai robots. Although the behind the scenes making of segment on the DVD is great. It shows how they did all the awesome visuals.

Alan the reason I feel sympathy for Deckard in Blade Runner is because I see humans in the same poignant situation. The replicants get about 4 years of life and we humans get 80-100. Neither group has any control over that. The pathos that comes when contemplating the impermanence of things. I haven't seen the movie yet but why oh why don't they get a REALLY good screenwrtiter on board for these big movies!

This film seems to have a lot of good aspects but it's being hyped way too much. It's a mix of ideas from a lot of other movies crammed into one, too long with with rough patches and logic gaps. It will be forgotten next week. We've gotten so much junk as of late that any film that is somewhat competent is being lauded as Citizen Kane. The movie is fine and that's about it.

I've seen it and the protagonist is pretty dull, as is John Washington as an actor and it is a case of the visuals being better than the mediocre story.

It’s still a girl is the key to everything story. The world building was lacking. Also a bunch of shot compositions are right out of Rogue One. The costumes and robots look as if they picked the trash over at Disney Star Wars. The entire last act of the film was right out of Rogue One. Also he doesn’t seem to understand what AI is. This film is no Blade Runner or Her. The military interactions felt like they were ripped out of every awful Vietnam film.

Regarding sentient bombs with personality, is a reminder of Stargate Atlantis where in fighting the Replicators , Dr McKay creates a replicator he names FRAN (friendly replicator android) whose sole purpose is to infiltrate and disrupt the enemy replicators and in doing so she will be destroyed. McKay seeing that she is self aware feels guilty that she is willing, even looking forward to destroying herself. She sees that he is concerned and assures him that she is merely performing her function for which she was created and that he should not worry for her. You get the sense that if she indeed had feelings that there could be no greater joy than to complete her mission and in a sense make her creator , McKay proud.

I find it surprising that both of you saw this movie as being “pro machines”. That’s just what the machines want you to think. The last shot is chilling if you look at it through the perspective of “what would be the message they would want to convey”? They are manipulative, seductive and adaptable. Joshua and the rest of the “heroes” have been suckered in. And there’s nothing in this movie that says otherwise. Alan, give it another shot.

think it's up for debate how much was 'taken away.' Famously the Vader hallway scene was part of these reshoots and Edwards stuck himself in this scene so definitely was still directing and involved at this point. I think it was mostly editing what they had initially and then writing for new reshoots.

As the lead or anything in the movie. He was soo bad. I am not a fan of his at all. Just alone, from that movie, I will never fall for another movie with him as a lead. That's how bad Tenet was. When I saw the trailer for Creator - I knew then I will not be seeing this movie. Tons of media articles about how it's great and blah blah blah. Studio already knows they have a bomb. Just because he's of a certain color they thought oh yeah, modern audience, we'll get more fans with this casting. Like a stupid voter turnout, so dumb. But they have been doing this for decades no surprise there. Bottom line the actor is terrible. And I will never watch a movie with him in it again.

Have not seen this yet but will. The point of any human vs robot movie is to question what it means to be “alive”. To ponder at what point if at all does the soul develop in sentient creatures. These are philosophical questions conveyed with varying degrees of competence depending on the writing. But to simply dismiss it as “I’m on the side of humans no matter what” is to ignore these questions which are the entire point of the exercise. Smacks of being a dullard if you fail to recognize this.

I agreed with y'all. Denzel's son can't act. Now I'm starting to questioned why I didn' like Tenet. Was it beasue of Nolan's script or the lead actor. I sat thru act 1 and 2 and walked out by act 3. I'm supposed to feel something for the lead character trying to see his wife one last time but I felt nothing. I did like the little details in the world of 2065. New Asia was somewhere in Thailand. I can hear the Thai as well as Vietnamese language in the background. The little girl was adorable and did make me feel something for the robots. But I didn't care enought to stick around for the ending.

*SPOILERS* I just came back from the film and unfortunately left it feeling "meh." Visually, the film is often stunning with the caveat that too much action happens at night which is hard to keep track of. The world itself looks interesting; basically the real world with some flourishes similar to an upscaled District 9. From a visual POV, it FEELS feel and lived in. Sound design is also strong, bringing you into the world. Moving soundtrack. Only problem was sometimes songs would intrude in an ironic manner that just overpowered the rest of the sound; not a good idea. Writing was basic but sound: you see the story beats, the callbacks to see how the characters progress and hammer some points home. The story you have seen before: a badass is tasked to bring in a child, only to regain his/her humanity by spending time with the child and turning from his masters to do the right thing. Nothing revolutionary but moving when well executed which it was in this case. Unfortunately, the story falls apart in that there is too much coincidence to move the plot along. Or plot happens because it needs to happen even as you want to shout, "that's BS!" Or you are wondering just how the heck did THAT manage to happen? It links to Chris Gore's comments on the second half as the need for plot to happen undercuts reasonably good emotional weight to the characters. As a final comment, I had a problem with the robots themselves since they felt TOO human. It becomes hard to justify attacks on them. The nuclear weapon attack is later claimed to be a human coding error but this ignores that other coding errors could exist that could create other problems and therefore AI SHOULD be feared even if they are not intentionally malicious. They are basically humans in robot bodies (some clearly robotic and others human like except for a hole through the head to show the audience that they are simulated humans) and that take away from the story. There was a line where a human states that AI is evolution that sounds like brainwashing that could have been an interesting counterpoint but it was never followed up on. Final final comment: that the United States was fairly evil while we see New Asia as this land of complete harmony between humans and the various robots. Given that humanity itself has problems with itself, I don't see how they would get along so well with non humans.

I wouldn’t trust everything the robots say. The movie is highly subjective so we have to keep that in mind. What Allison Janney’s character tells about how her son died goes against what the robots say to the kids. My reasoning is that they’re manipulating people, they’re waging a quiet war by turning people to their side to use as shields against their enemies. Just as terrorists they build their hq’s among civilians. A human error? Really? No, rather manipulation to turn Joshua to their side completely.

Interesting, Alan’s thoughts about “robots just aren’t people So I can’t find it compelling in that way.” There are so many movies where robots are sentient people-do none of those work for him? And that is the conceit of these stories… Is that these AI are now actually sentient, and are actually people. That’s kind of the whole discussion/tension of those stories. Tends to also be allegories for race, how some groups of people aren’t considered people, or are falsely considered dangerous, and so atrocities are rationalised. That’s literally this story in a nutshell, and many other AI movies have similar themes. If you buy into the movie, then the machines _are_ a new race of people. So within that world, wanting to wipe them out _is_ racism. So yeah, curious to know what Alan thinks about suspension of disbelief and immersion and letting yourself into the movie, concerning this.

The trailers for this film looked rather cliche from other movies I’ve seen in the past? But seeing both you and Jeremy Jahn’s reviews I might have to check it out. Lol

The whole point of A.I at this advanced level is that the machines become self-aware, it is not just programming anymore. What science fiction does through movies, tv-series and books is to explore the moral and ethical consequences of such evolution, in which technology created by man becomes something more. This movie doesn´t explore these themes in depth, but it suggests them. That´s why I´m able to feel sympathy and pity for the so called robots in this film. It’s because they are presented as sentient beings, and because all they want is peace. So what the American army is doing in this film is to enforce a form of genocide. I agree the third act is a bit weak.

On the one hand, I'm with Alan. I'm rooting for the human master race all the way. On the other, that's prefaced on the fact that I don't believe that AI, no matter how advanced, will ever gain true, self-aware consciousness. Don't get me wrong, I'm still on team human master race, but i would have a problem with killing some innocent being with honest-to-God thoughts, feelings, and soul, so unlike Alan, I'm still intrigued by these kinds of themes due to their existential implications and moral questions. Shame to hear that it seems really basic, but then again, so are a lot of science fiction classics. At the end of the day, it matters how well it's done more than it matters how predictable it might be (sometimes the fact that you see where a story is going can add to the tension and drama like a trainwreck you know will happen but can't stop or turn away). At the very least, I'm excited to see a decent original scifi movie. I'm not anti-adaptation of existing source material, but we could some more compelling new ideas.

It’s awkward I never really cared much for Rogue One by Gareth Edwards despite its popularity, but I did thoroughly enjoy this one a lot, in similar way I find JJ Abrams Star Treks and Star Wars not that great but his Cloverfield films were alright

First time in years I've gone to the cinema and not looked at my watch during the film. Some issue, true (like why did the father with the kids and the car help them get through the checkpoint?), but I suspended my disbelief.

It's really imprudent to put any definitive Anno Domini year on a speculative future. Just vaguely allude to it as being a future.

Robert Heinlein did this in a nonfiction essay, and as he said, “I set it far enough in the future that I’ll almost certainly be dead so it won’t matter if I end up being wrong.”
