A.I. Artificial Intelligence opinions? Spielberg 2001

Post by bbatson1 »

I just saw something on tv that reminded me about this movie.

Imo this is a terrible movie and Steven Spielberg's worse movie that I can recall. I just remember sitting in the theater wishing it would end. I'm curious to see if anyone on the :phila: likes this one. The reviews for it were favorable and some critics gave it extremely high praise.

Seemed like a dope concept gone wrong. Kubrick would have surely done it more ill.

I really enjoy this movie. I think the ending was the problem. It should have ended in the ocean.

Not a fan. Lower-tier Spielberg.

There are some amazingly perfect moments, some brilliant ideas, and then some ridiculousness. Kubrick would have done a much better job. Too many times Spielberg went Spielberg on us. That said, I like the movie a lot...

Really enjoyed. Got a little long in some parts, but overall a really good movie.

Reminds me of a more stylized version of Bicentennial Man which is really sappy and I enjoyed even more.

yeah, movie is dope. I really liked the overall feel of this flick. Wish Kubrick would have done it before da gawds passing.

Wow wasn't expecting this. I thought it was boring. Bad characters and a not great score. Interesting.

Out of curiosity, have you ever done this with any other film?
