This movie was fantastic
Absolutely we have to support and watch it in theaters what a beautiful experience
i absolutely adore this movie. It's rogue one without it's flaws and being tethered to the star wars/disney.
the conflict is intricate and truly made of shades of gray. both sides are right and both are wrong.
Colonel is completely right in her convinction- just listen to the "neanderthals" speech. from her point of view it trully is us vs them. Noone outside of top brass knows that LA wasn't AI's fault. And yet, even if it isn't- who's to say that they won't revolt down the line? they have the capactiy to outdo humans in every category- of course people are paranoid. revenge for LA, survival of the species and dehumanisation of the enemy can make you justify a whole lot of terrible things. they're not human after all, so it's ok, right?
and on the other hand there's the AI and their supporters- they're sentient and just want to be left alone. Whether they are real or not is just semantics. they feel, hurt and are brutally dispatched. the brutal way the US is dealing with them forces them to play dirty too, after all- why wouldn't you with an enemy that wants to eradicate every single one of you? for humans it about the threat of genocide, for AI the genocide is very real and happening
Like in Rogue 1 i see heavy Vietnam War undertones, but while there it was reduced to aesthetics here it's expanded, one could say perfected. US fighting a brutal preemptive (and based on a lie) east asia war to "guard" the world from the enemy spreading it's influence? So many words to not say "domino theory" just the setting itself screams 'nam with all those rural villages, the pertruding karst and islets, the bridge that feels ripped straight out of Apocalypse now. Also music being very deliberately peppered with old school rock. The main question of the story is a great pararel for our wars, how we dehumanise "the others", the treatment of AI isn't that far off from how one would think about Japs and Charlie back in the day or Haji and Muj quite recently, and in some way while it talks about future AI war it also makes it timeless in a sense
as for the main star- Dude really can act. here we can see what we didn't see in Tenet- emotion. inner conflict. nuance and shit. There he was mostly a silent protagonist led by sheer willpower, an institution rather than a man. It was designed like that, but let's be honest, Robert Pattison did a hard carry in this movie. Here it's definitely on mr. Washington's shoulders. Dude got talent
The little kid was a bit over the top adorable with "what is heaven" and other lines, but that was her purpose and she fullfilled it perfectly.
as for the ending- Yeah. that "one more minute with her" and the heroic sacrifice hit hard. This is what Rogue One was meant to be.
Personaly- i grade it as a 8/10 in its genre, best action Sci-fi since Oblivion
Sidebar- i don't think they fired a nuke from NOMAD itself. from my understanding the station was built deep into the war, which could have started a long long time ago, that senate hearing or whatever you call it of a general speaking after LA's destruction doesn't look modern by any means. i think the war has to be at the very least 15 years old, but quite possibly it could be going on for decades. we know that it took 10 years to build nomad and we know that it was used at least as soon as 5 years ago, since this movie takes place 5 years after Joshua's botched undercover mission. It could be a forever war, just one that the East is currently loosing because of nomad and Nirmata being in a coma. and even then, it took 5 years of Nomad freely operating and Maya's coma to get East to its near colapse it is shown in. I'm thinking it's more like 20-30 years of war. can't be more as Joshua's parents died in LA. He could be a kid while that happened, but still, more is reaching
You should do The Ghost in the darkness
I mean The Ghost and the Darkness
When Joshua was about to switch her off and she asked if she will go to Heaven, ABSOLUTELY BROKE ME!!!
It’s just programming😂
@@overlyfatman9722 Agreed, I commented on their final scene under another CZcamsr reaction channel. The part where she responded like she loved Joshua took me out of the scene emotionally because I realised that it was just her advanced programming responding in a human fashion.
IT IS A MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@FeelinEriebut the point is to show how we aren’t any different… we’re programmed very much the same way to love etc
@@FeelinErie Human brains are programmed, opening someone's skull just reveals really complex patterns of microscopic wires. Humans don't have some magical soul dust or something. This is the point of the movie, its human hubris that only humans have moral value.
The movie, for me, wasn't about AI. It was about humans coexisting. It was about accepting people for who they are and what they believe. It was about the danger of believing you have moral superiority and the evil that is done in its name. Sure, it delved into themes of humanity, AI, and the implications of both. But, for me it said a lot more about the important issues of our time than the future and the implications of AI.
99 percent of humans accept people for who they are. its getting crazy how the powers at be are trying to censor us and pushing and demanding males and females to use the same bathroom and play sports. its become insanity. thats just 1 example. i accept everyone being half spanish and italian. im from guatemala and i disagree with biden cause hes letting millions of people “ mainly men” over the border. my mom came here legally. there is no accountability when it comes to crimes and law. its ashame
LIBERALLL
Exactly and obvious to anyone with any political awareness
It's just our history constantly repeating. We seem incapable of changing. So far anyway.
That’s what I got from it.
The ending had me in tears, the score was bone chilling. I love the lead actor and the child actor.
My hard ass was right there with you
Same man same 💔
Denzel Washington son
@@taylorcontreras5656 yes a great actor. I hope he gets cast to play Yasuke, a great African samurai accepted by the japanese people. Would be an epic movie like gladiator.
@@immortalone3943oh wow that actually doesn’t seem like a bad casting decision, maybe he could work with Ken Watanabe again
I would definitely give it at least 9/10. For me it was the best movie I've seen this year.
Doesn’t top Oppenheimer for me. I’d say a solid 7.5/10 definitely a visual treat.
@@alasdairboswell4654I think the nude scenes alone take away from Oppenheimer. One was fine, but the sex scene in the hearing was odd to me.
@@ethanweeter2732 lmao
i give 2/10
Lies. Studio bot.
Watched The Creator last night with my 14yr old daughter. We absolutely loved the movie and the soundtrack was fantastic too.
Gutted at the ending with both of us having tears.
Don’t know if this film would benefit a sequel but I would be curious to see what happens to Alfie.
I give it 9.5/10⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Same here. Watched it with my 14 y.o. son. Left us in tears.
No sequel please let this be. It is amazing 😢
If there will be a sequel, i hope that joshua and maya escaped in a escape pod and they live happily together with alphie lol
it was confirmed that there wont be a sequel, the creator likes when movies end with an ending no part 2s or 3s, sadly :(
@@darrenmendez7262
they dont need a sequel but a prequal would be fire. maybe like leading up to the nukes and the start ,of the war, or even the evolution of the AI itself. the CGI was so well done, they could really expand this universe dramatically
Recently read an interview with Gareth Edwards who said that he never had any CGI suits on the set for the AI robots. They were all filmed as normal characters and then in post, ILM was told which people can be the AI. I think that's why seeing them act like humans when they cry, get hurt etc is soooo good.
This was very disappointing to me. The dumbest 'sci fi' film since AntMan 3.
The robots act like humans but they are also physically weird so we can immediately tell they are robots. They are incredibly weak and dumb also, like Terminators crossed with Star Wars Storm Troopers. Nothing they are doing makes any sense. Also the premise that America tries to ban or stop all AI is hilariously ignorant of America from a social satire perspective. *America will never stop AI once corporations start making money off of it.*
A.I. weapons for Pentagon.
Sex Bots for the masses.
Hate bots you can denigrate, abuse and enslave, and you're golden.
America can't stop that anymore than they can stop twitter, guns and internet porn because those things relate their TRUE VALUES.
Film is too shallow, vapid and stupid to go there though.
Blade Runner for the cognitively challenged.
I don't like the fact that the AI police moves like humans. I think that robots should move more like...robots.
@@smsg83 I think the choice of giving them the flexibility as that of humans is far more efficient. It allows them to move through the environments more easily.
@@smsg83the whole point is that they're supposed to be more human tho
@@smsg83that's the point, they're so advanced that they felt like human
This movie marks the first time in a VERY long time for me where I genuinely felt a connection for the characters. I actually found myself caring about them and feeling what they’re experiencing. I had almost forgotten how a movie could elicit this kind of emotion from me. I never imagined I’d actually be crying in a sci-fi movie about AI robots, but this movie delivers so many emotional moments that it’s hard not to be affected by it. I’m also a father, and the young AI robot mirrored a lot of the experiences I’ve had with my own children. I found myself wanting her to be saved and protected like she was actually a real child. Again, I was not expecting to have this kind of a connection to a sci-fi robot. Hats off to everyone involved with this movie. It was a phenomenal masterpiece, and exactly the type of content we desperately need in the movie industry. I really hope we’ll start seeing more movies like this.
I love the cinematography and the way they integrated the music created a vibe. The colorizing gave it a 70s vibe, and I love sci-fi, and I have to rate this in my top something.
I saw it in IMAX to support the film, and I’m glad I did
i give 2/10 but i agree
@@domoetker3967 👍
The sound design and soundtrack blew me away several times.
I really truly enjoyed it not perfect but the emotions are soild wish it was R needed that extra realism like District 9
Yes, That District 9 feeling. The music was epic.
@DeonysusSoD the sound design was dope in theaters
DISTRICT 9 IS SO DAMN GOOD
@@MenaCourtadeProductionsEspecially at a Dolby theater, which is the one at AMC I went to. Would watch it again in IMAX, but want a d director’s cut for sure.
Nope, rating it PG13 allows more people to watch it. This movie needs to be seen
I picked up on an Easter egg during the one scene in the spaceport where it was showing the departure times. Three of the departure times had their destination being the Moon, but the one at the bottom said Scarif, which was of course a planet featured in his previous film, Rogue One.
🤓
@@Curi0u50ne YES! I AM!
Just watched The Creator. For me, this is one of the BEST sci-fi film I've seen in the last decade. It's a visual masterpiece. It's an emotional gut punch. And Madeleine Yuna Voyles should be nominated for an Oscar. Can't wait to buy this one on 4K.
She was strong in this film. She was more believable (acting wise) at times than Joshua. She killed it.
Honestly, as someone who really enjoys anything and everything futuristic/cyberpunk, I feel as though this movie really pays great homage to said genres. It isn’t the best story to come out in the space, but the visuals and cinematography go far beyond any other film I’ve seen in a while. If anything, Gareth Edwards will only get better the more he continues to push out these fantastic films. 8/10 for me!
The cinematography was amazing and just the entire vision in all is without a doubt way up there and is as cyberpunk as cyberpunk gets!
U cant get a better story than that! Cmon!
It just dawned on me but I wonder if Maya had designed the Alphie on purpose to look like her and Joshua's child so as to not only prevent the Alphie from being killed but to also swing the A.I revolution in their favor.Anyways such a great movie. A movie that us Sci-Fi heads really needed lol
Possibly, that could have been a thought but I assumed the availability and sentiment behind the decision which conveniently added a twist to the plot.
Saw this on Wednesday, and I was blown away by how terrific it is. The opening news reels were amazing and it brought the entire story to the front of what has happened between the humans and AI. It does what Cameron did with T2. So much in this movie is just great. The story (until the last act which dipped slightly but was still good) was emotional and brought a human story to the front of AI. The CGI effects are outstanding and is how sci fi movies should look in 2023. Flawless.
Washington is just brilliant in these roles and I'm so happy seeing him take on serious SCI FI projects (this, Tenet etc) and he's not going the easy root for movies. This movie is a defo 9.5/10 for me.
Agreed, but this movie could have ended so much better if Washington didn't betray humanity in favor for the AI takeover
@@user-tr2mb4xs7ihe only betrayed the Muricans desperate for superiority other countries are coexisting with AI so he just sucker punched the Murica
@@user-tr2mb4xs7i it was the US who betrayed humanity as they always do creating every war!
Babygirl deserves an Oscar. Unbelievable acting...especially in her 1st movie!🫨😃
I saw this last night. Thanks for covering this so quickly. I agree with what you said. But i think you could have talked more about how emotional it was. I worry about Alfie's future without Joshua or Mia to guide her.
She still has Harun (the Ken Watanabe's character).
Would love a show or even an anime exploring what happens to Alfie after this film
@@Listen3000 that would be so cool, that’s a great idea
I wonder if there’s an extended cut. I feel the same about some moments needing some elaboration. Madeleine’s performance was truly breathtaking! I’ve never seen a kid that could actually make me ball up like that! She’s really made a nuke-size (no pun) impact for herself here!
I think there is. The version I just got done watching had multiple F-Bombs and in Jeremy Jahns review, he mentioned he saw someone mouth the “fuck” but the words were different.
I watched the movie today on opening night, Friday. I really did like the movie. Impressed that it was made on a $80m budget. For some reason, I thought it was going to be a little bit better. So I would give it and 8 out of 10. Definitely still worth watching.
How did it fail to meet your expectations? Wondering
@gregt.5160 after seeing the preview for it, I think I was expecting to see even more to the movie. Sometimes those previews show too much of the movie.
characterisation.. no need to rush these things, and its wrong to think we should automatically care about characters, unless theres reason to
@@greg.peepeeface
@@davidprodigy5833 Yea I also felt it could've been longer and I would've been fine with it. It's 2 hrs 15 mins but could've been 2 hrs 45 mins or 3 hours and imo it would've made the film better.
I give it a 50 out of 10. It had everything in it like Ghost in the Shell anime, Akira, Elysium, Distruct 9, Rogue One. I watched it in IMAX and now want to see it in 4D. Hopefully there is a Director's Cut later.
Just got back from watching it. Please go watch it. We need to revive movies like this. Not much has come out recently that has this much originality.
The film was visually stunning.
The writing was... all over the place. I really wanted to love it.
I hated every minut of it, its not just You.
Seems that's the common complaint but I don't how bad it was story wise. Some of the dialogue was questionable but nothing compared to the other stuff we've been getting in other movies/shows.
One example... his buddy who was left, somehow runs a factory deep in AI territory, and when his clearly wanted friend shows up, asks "you weren't followed, right?"
Of course he was followed! The entire region is looking for him.
@@terranncegilmoreOh right but no you are wrong, in this AI driven world, the AI is even worse the Storm troopers in Star Wars.
Nothing, absolyt nothing made any sens at all, US army assult a base, they send the police? And they have 10 robots standing there shooting straig into the US army truck for like 20 min or more.
This movie was so garbage its not even funny.
Yup. And not just dialogue: the writing generated so many laughable or cringey plot points (SPOILERS). Like when Joshua figures out exactly which piece of the village shrine to twist to open the secret lab entrance. Or the idea that the US military couldn't destroy The Child without Joshua. (Couldn't anyone have EMP'd her/it?). Or a van full of kids getting shot up at point-blank range and no one getting hit. Or the military's rationale for getting Joshua involved again. Or the van driver greeting Joshua in English even though they are in rural Asia, the driver is Asian, and everyone else is speaking a local language. Makes me appreciate Blade Runner 2049 and the writing on that. Only knock I have on the special effects is that Nomad kept changing size and altitude.
I really caught a Vietnam War vibe from this movie.
The technologically superior superpower invading a country in Southeast Asia, willing to wipe out entire villages in order to find an elusive enemy, who the soldiers are trained to see as less than human.
How and why did this war start?
Was it a misunderstanding?
Was it an accident that one side exploited to drive public support for a pointless war?
Can we learn to live together in peace or is humanity doomed to annihilate itself?
Great movie. Great writing.
Please make more like this one!
Because they used Vietnam war as reference to make invasion screen and setting of New Asia, New Asia is in fact Indochina, Vietnam is the center and yes, Vietnam is also the center of New Asia, Josh hut is on VN shore too. Many of AI resistance are Vietnamese A.I, Kami is Vietnamese A.I, the mass invasion is mainly in Vietnamese. Everything is using Vietnam as reference.
@@trietnguyen2539its Thailand, Indonesia, Nepal and some of Vietnam.
I just saw it today it's incredible really well made both in visuals and story definitely one of the best movies I've seen in a while. So I totally agree with you
The quality of the special effects given the budget are actually insane compared to all other CG heavy films. Acting is great all around, the story is interesting and well written, the cinematography and score are excellent, the movie is just solid on all fronts. Definitely an instant classic.
That running suicide bomber of a tin can needs to win an award for being terrifying. Could you imagine though
Good spruik lad . I'll check it out on Monday labour day in Sydney. I'll definitely appreciate comparing my outlook on the film and definitely the air conditioning. Kudos man . Have a good weekend people, fans of the channel.
On an $80USD. Mad respect.
The last moment of Joshua & Maya felt so short would've been great if they portrayed it like the time slowed down for them for their last 30seconds
SPOILERS;
It may be just me, but the slight smile from Alfie at the very end makes me wonder if her intensions were actually good / innocent, or if she was manipulating Josh all along, I don’t think she was, but it definitely made me pause 🤔. Absolutely Loved the film 👏🏻
Her people were free that's something to smile about.
@@mickdipiano8768 ahh totally, it was most likely just that. It was just the way the expression changed, totally possible that was just my brain seeing something that wasn’t there 😂
@@mickdipiano8768Yes, untill they declare war on humanity haha such a stupid movie and premiss.
@@peternystrom921 it's funny that a troll bot is threatening ai taking over.
@@mickdipiano8768The premiss in the movie will never ever work as a happy ending. The robots will take over, we have problem feeding and birth humans now.
This movie was just so stupid.
I like how the general in the film always spoke with a deep voice that made him sound more robotic than human
Only 80 million???..... this looked like they spent 600 million on this movie easy... wow, some projects in Hollywood really need to get there shit together. The creator was so good I'm going to see it again.
It was a great movie. It was like watching an anime come to life. The filmography was excellent, and story was amazing. Definitely 9/10
Best new sci-fi movie ive seen in the past 10 years imo, 9.5/10
I love a movie that makes you think and alphis acting was incredible
This movie echoed Star Wars, Tron, Children of Men, Chappie, and District 9. It also is guilty of 'and then' storytelling instead of 'therefore or but" storytelling (see Matt Stone and Trey Parker explanation).
Because they are all humble and amazing sci-fi movies?
It's Gareth Edwards, but it feels like a Neil Blomkamp movie. In all the right ways.
I really enjoyed the film, but did feel that it was lacking in parts.
The pacing can either be incredibly fast or move at a snails pace at times. Some decisions felt awkward at times, and I really wanted to get more information on AI religion and culture.
But still really like the movie and thought it looked beautiful.
Also the Kid A part was probably my favorite movie moment of the year. I love it when film makers do things like that.
7.7/10
Great movie! Thanks for the review. I also got the feeling that it didnt necessarily have to be about AI being good and trying to change our toughts on it, but more in general just human prejudice against those are different than ourselves. Not realizing that we are more similar that we are different, and like you said resorting to violence as a first choice, a lot because of our history. Of course a lot also about the US and how it freely attacks and gets involved in other countries as it pleases, or when they just dont like something. Definitely felt a lot of parellels with the vietnam war, with the movie largely being set in asia, and the US trying to stop the spread of communism (AI).
It was a beautiful experience. I did get modern-day classic vibes. Sat in my chair after the credits, just taking it all in.
Same it was an experience
I wish I had watched it on IMAX.
@ethanweeter2732 Yeah bro. I was fortunate enough to have a discount code for imax.
I just realized why Joshua is disaled. It seems kinda benign to make him a disabled person, but since he goes to Maya to give him prosthetics, it symbolizes that she 'completed him', as a person. But overall, the movie was really good, one of the best movies I have seen. But it deserves a 9/10 since I feel like it could've been longer, exploring the themes of AI sentiences, and scene when he tries to find Maya in the city in New Asia.
Yes, the dialogue might have been wonky in some parts, but my GOODNESS was this a visual treat. The story kept me interested enough, but the action and the characters (especially Alfie) kept me engrossed for the whole 2.5 hours.
Great review. Agree with almost everything your saying. Only difference would be the opinion of pacing, however, that’s definitely a personal preference and also, partially a feeling/opinion that may change viewing to viewing.
Thanks for the content, always appreciate it.
I saw it in Imax today. I'm so torn, visually it was fullfilling, but the pacing, characterisation and story were in-cohesive, sadly, which led to frustrations. I think in the hand of a more established filmaker this could have been truly epic. The fact that the Ai couldnt shoot for shit was odd, they're not stormtroopers, they're AI - surely their vision and aim should be better than a human? The scene on the bridge was daft, they're all missing the one guy coming at them... come on!! Id have loved to have seen some POV viewpoint from the AI simulants too.. another missed opportunity. Overall, 7 out of 10. breaking that down, 9 out of 10 for visuals, but 5 out of 10 for storytelling.
I agree with your general rankings, but I have to say I thought the pacing was near perfect. The only slog and the only time I felt the runtime was between the 2nd and 3rd act. But hey, different strokes. Respectfully
15 people missing the one guy 30 ft away on the bridge is unforgivable though 😂
I agree with this... the robots missing didn't bother me. Have you seen AI try to draw fingers? 😅 Trust me, AI misses the mark, haha. They aren't war machines. They might not be specifically designed to have perfect aim... But I agree with the rest, though I would add a 10/10 as far as acting. The little girl was amazing, and everyone else too.
The problem is the writing. Edwards is a strong visual artist, but he is a bad writer. Which is why he played it safe and basically just rehashed the plot of Rogue One. Pair this guy with a good writer and we would get a masterpiece.
Just saw it and it’s fantastic. This is the kind of film we need more of in the cinema. Go and see it everyone.
Great review! Loved it
I felt like this was in the same vein as Elysium and District 9 but even better. More Gareth Edward please. Great video as always Paul!
I watched it today and it was excellent. Not mentioning how they nailed all the technical aspects, machines, weapons, everything. For me it was the biggest surprise since I watched the District 9 many years ago. Excellent.
I completely agree with you. I want Hollywood to create more authentic works like this. ❤
It’s not bad at all…the premise, casting, setting, VFX, just the script and pacing is off. But I’m glad Hollywood is finally making these original movies again
Watched it today in IMAX in Thailand
The Thai dialogues were hilarious and drew lots of laughter in our cinema.
What a great movie. Tear jerker for sure. Thanks for this review. Was kinda concerned after reading some Rotten Tomatoes reviews. I loved every bit of it.
Like when they’re behind the blast shield.. want to have sex with your mom part of was gold
The only laughs that I heard were ones of uneasiness. But, thats the American vibe.
@@enigma8088 it’s for an American audience, and there’s a ton on funny moments that aren’t obnoxious like a marvel movie
then better watch in your country. Where you from? same place like Johnny somalia i guess huh?
Why are you guys in my country? What you want from our , grandmothers, mothers and daughters, granddaughters & grandsons? You muslim right? Is this legal? How old are you 50? You got a wife and kids already or? WHAT ARE YOU DO IN THAILAND? This is so heartbreaking for us Asians to read this and knowing whats up right now!
Damn!! Just finished watching. Really good movie. Definitely displayed JDW range and acting chops. He’s getting better. Although he sounds so much like his father and has his father’s mannerisms. The little girl, OMG!! So many moments where she have you crying. She’s so innocent. She did an amazing job. All in all, I definitely agree with the rating 9/10. Maybe 9.5/10 for me. Very good movie. Just like I thought it would be 👏🏾…..on another note, this movie is like a futuristic GOLDEN CHILD 😂
It seems like a modern Blade runner imo
Saw it last night. I wanted to whack away being absolutely in love with it. But didn’t. I did enjoy, thought it was great. But it’s just what you said about it moving to fast and wanting to spend more time on certain beats ❤❤❤❤ 8 out of 10
You always know it's going to be an amazing film when Hans Zimmer does the music
This movie was epic and beautiful on every level. The sound design 👌
I thought it was great! A really nuanced story, it looked amazing, and on such a big scale. So impressive they can make this kind of movie with the budget they had. I can't believe this was the little girl's first movie ever because I thought she was fantastic
just saw it...❤❤❤ Refreshing story and love the realistic scify images of the future.
Really enjoyed this movie. Looked and sounded fantastic in the Dolby Cinema and it was a wow experience. I agree with Paul and think we need a director’s cut with more footage to flesh the characters a bit more and slow the pace down a bit. I think this was probably done to keep the movie as close to 2 hours as possible. Hopefully we get a directors cut. But overall it was excellent film and I’m glad I saw it in the Dolby Cinema format.
Honestly Paul. I didn’t even want to see it. Now after this it’s a must see. Truly appreciate you and all that you do.
Thank you
Yes, don’t let negative reviews bother you.
Go watch and enjoy!
Such a great film I agree whole heartedly that’s probably one of the better films made this year completely original makes me feel like going back and seeing rogue one again
I liked the movie a lot but I can’t help but feeling it would’ve worked better as a tv series or with a longer run time? Like fleshing out Alfie and Josh relationship while they were on the run would’ve been really cool. A last of us type of bond forming.
Been playing 2077 a lot for the last week, so robot waifu who was dating Josh’s friend took me back to night city with her design. She shouldn’t have died 😭. It’s fucked up that they both died trying to help Josh and just being nice people. No good deed goes unpunished.
I like how the ending is a mix of a superman and titanic reference as well as the obvious religious symbolism. In the end Josh and Maya got to see each other one more time but fuck I wish they could’ve had a better ending. The world is so cruel and unforgiving.
Good old US army committing war crimes by dropping missiles on escaping civilians.
Oh yea and ngl the war being started just by HUMAN error is very disappointing. I thought that there would be a terrorist organisation or something behind it all but knowing it was started over something like that is so shitty.
That’s funny, I had the opposite thought. The main draw of this movie is its aesthetics, which I could have appreciated just as much as a half hour short. It’s basically a VFX reel with a Star-Wars story underneath.
@@artlesscalamity348 nah I liked the story the most
I've watched it yesterday, Good movie. In my opinion, it was a combination of many ideas: The Golden Child(for those old enough to remember), The last of Us, District 9.
With a Blade Runner chaser !
it felt like watching a 2hour trailer. the pacing felt like it was in double time leaving little room to dive into the characters or their relationships.
Would’ve loved more scenes in the city. The movie looked amazing.
Man, the lost potential Disney Star Wars could've been is in full view in this production. Hollyweird needs creatives like Edwards again and paired with talented writers.
Insane film from begining to end, truly beautiful
It's a shame that a lot of user reviews that I read on IMDB were quite bad. It's a good move, and refreshing to see a movie that isn't related to superheroes or Star Wars.
well said
Just saw it in IMAX on Tuesday, awesome!
I love to see more of this.. I want it to become a series, so many potentials
Thanks!
So you gave it a 9/10 to goad us into reacting to your video.
Well done
Fantastic film, I was genuinely touched by this movie. Haven’t seen a movie that made me feel that way in a long time.
Totally agree with all you said mate watched it last nightand really enjoyed it, everyone that loves movies should go out and see it 👍
loved this film so much!
Just watched this. Absolutely loved it.
I'm happy they did not use the shot of that explosion in Lebanon for the actual cut of the movie.
Thanks Paul 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🌹
I absolutely adored it need to see it again
I haven’t ugly cried like that in a long time, great movie! I wished it was longer and definitely wanted to spend more time in the story. I wanted a gentler on the emotions ending, but maybe it needed to be this way.
Definitely the best movie I've seen so far this year. Was quite an emotional film tbf. Defo 8/10. Well worth watching at the cinema the visuals are fire.💯🤖🔥
Big ups Def.💯👊🏽
Its the weakest bigbudget movie of the year
@@raymondechoone of them for sure lol right there with the “the flash” for me.
@@raymondecho - Its not big budget. Only 80 million. Thats dirt cheap compared to other films that look worse.
This film really irritated me. I felt there were so many loopholes and I had so many questions throughout that became frustrating. I think I just struggled to understand what was happening sometimes.
Watch it again. I did, and it got even better during the second time around.
@@alphamrc309Yeah I don't think so, I'll probably come back having found even more plotholes. The movie just wasn't it. It could've been great, it could've been a reflection of our own world, it could've made such an impact but it was just meh. It was gorgeous but ultimately just meh
I liked it. What this review doesn't stress enough is how beautifully it's art directed.
Disagree that those were minor nitpicks about the lack of characterisation and emotion. I think it was the biggest downside to this movie. The last 3rd felt overdone and because of the lack of characterisation, I didn’t feel the impact of it at all.
Great to see an original sci-fi but I think the buzz around it shows that audiences are starved of originality…
Completely agree!
I did enjoy it. The world-building was good (some buildings look like the Architecture from Mass Effect games), the acting was on par, and the action was also good. The Resurrection tech was something else interestingly; however, I'll say this: it had echoes of the USA war against Vietnam, with AI becoming the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam or (Viet cong)
I do think it was similar to Vietnam films, but I did not mind because it fit into the plot I thought.
agreed
Really enjoyed this movie. Great breakdown.
I just watched it on Hulu yesterday. It was pretty good. You really get emotionally connected to those lead characters. I wish we got a little more explanation. Especially with the floating NOMAD aircraft why did it have fields of grass and android copies of Mia?
As soon as I saw some reviews of the movie, I had the feeling it's going to have similar fate like Blade Runner - Initially it may underperform, but over time it will become something like a cult classic.
Blade Runner is considered a top 5 Sci-Fi film of all time though.
@@ethanweeter2732 yea, after the fact (not via box office numbers/revenue)
I feel the opposite. Once people start getting multiple viewing and aren't wowed by the visuals anymore the paper thin story, massive plot holes you could drive a truck through, and the forced contrivances that need to happen to movie the movie along are going to drag this movie down.
In a few years all people will remember of it is this...
"Hey remember that pretty looking film from a few years back that had that AI kid on the run? No not the Spielberg movie, the one with the robo-viet cong."
Great movie. Felt like hard sci-fi with the fantasy of avatar. There are a few negatives, but they didn't detract much from my enjoyment of the film.
Another banger breakdown
I agree with you this is an incredibly good movie
Great thought provoking film 9/10 for sure
Great movie that I’m going to go see in theaters again!
I loved this film and agree w/you it might not be perfect, but its perfectly enjoyable and a future classic. I've seen it twice already and might go a third time if I have time. Good times. 🤘
This was one of the most believable looking sci-fi movies in a very long time. The script was fine. But if Marvel is watching, they need these people to do all the rest of whatever they got left in their roster. It cost half as much and looked ten times better.
I watched the preview on Wednesday, it was awesome. I need to see it in IMAX now.
well say~ 9/10!
great director/producer/writer~
would defiantly support this director.
Just saw it and think it was phenomenal!
I saw a few things that connected with Animatrix: Renaissance story.
On that angle, the movie felt as the closest I've seen anime style come to life.
I agree that some scenes should've lingered a bit more for emotional impact, particularly at the end.
It definitely needed some profound dialogue.
I finally watched this last night 9th of October and for me it was a sci-fi alogory for 911 and the subsequent war on Terror that followed it was a very thoughtful film and made you think that there are two sides to conflicts like that
I agree that this could be a classic. The effects were awesome
Blade Runner, Matrix & remnants of star wars(e.1,2&3) are movies that come to mind when talking about the creator......I personally loved❤it & would like to see many more movies made this way👍👍👍👍👍.......😮😮😮😮...............
