Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

bmradux My Vote: I would have actually aimed for a 7, but since I find it so underrated, here comes the 8. Given the general low IMDb rating I was pleasantly surprised by the first shots, and the first dialogues that were.. more than decent. And it got better- negligible amount of cheesy, just 4 moments of "wtf- no one would do that in real life". There were some familiar actors, and some new to me, and they all played their parts well. Suspense, there was. Emotion there was not. It's not a must for a sci-fi to bring a tear to my eye, but maybe if you kill some characters or put sentimental music on the soundtrack, make sure I get to care about the moment? Just saying... All in all a very, very decent sci-fi. Maybe a bit too long. I confess, I watched it all in one piece, while it was meant as a miniseries, but I believe that in the end, after 2:40 h, I actually accumulated a total of some 40 minutes of watching fancy camera shots and coloured lines and dots swooshing by, the visual representation of the AI in action. While I initially enjoyed the innovative shots they got to be over-exploited and story-diluting. The length allowed for quite a few twists and turns, while the film did not fall into the trap of useless sub-plots (although, again, they could have told the story of the titanic, had they removed the useless AI animations). Scientifically feasible? I would say yes. I guess a Spontaneous Technological Singularity would not really be spontaneous. But if You put a good enough AI together with a virus able to create a botnet, You will at least get an AI with unlimited computing power. At this point, let me remind You that the Turner Test has been finally passed by an AI in 2014, and that in the last 7 years, some 60.000.000 PCs have been unknowingly been part of DISCOVERED botnets, and that any new smartphone has more speed and storage than the best supercomputer of 1990. So slowly, You can start adapting the question "Are there aliens among us?"

Arnes Semenov I didn't know what to think of this movie when i just saw it's title and the premise seemed 50/50 for my liking but when i started watching it, boy was i surprised.The acting for the most part wasn't all that bad and to have a cast like Seth Green was surprising enough as it is. Anyway, for those who are fans of Sci-Fi or hacking in general, this movie did get a lot of the real issues with supercomputers or A.I. out there and it played it's cards pretty well.Now despite all of that there are of course a few faults or moments that would probably make people not enjoy this movie as much.Firstly, the movie is too long and overstays it's welcome and it took nearly 30 minutes to get sucked in.And without giving out any spoilers, the ending was quite cheesy and cliché as much as it was cute and would make sense.It's a solid 5,5/10 And giving it a lower score would have flagged it as generic and bland, and i'm not just being generous here.

rick-575 This two-part miniseries is a re-take on an old book called "The Adolescence of P-1" written back in the time of mainframes and already done once before as a Canadian movie (guess Canadian's love this story).Bringing the story up to the present gave it a nice fresh feel and unique approach. It did a pretty good job of feeling fresh, but doesn't totally get out of the the "low budget Canadian film" feel, which limits its potential.It is entertaining and the longer two-part approach makes it move at a more comfortable pace, without being too forced. The female lead was good but under-utilized in the 2nd half and the male lead was unnecessary. I did prefer the book ending (where the AI just says "cool it"), but it was good and enjoyable evening at home.

John Freeman "Delete" had a good concept and the ending wasn't half bad. If you have nothing better to do, this might be a worthwhile way to spend a few hours. The movie did a respectable job of building suspense.The camera work was meant to be creative but actually was annoying and detracted from the movie.The acting was just good enough but some of the characters were a little hard to take. However overall the casting worked.The plot is meant for the younger crowd and will seem juvenile to older viewers but get past that and there is a fairly exciting story to be had.Clearly this is a made for TV movie and would never have survived wide release. It simply is not good enough but it had its moments and is thought provoking.I feel ambiguous about "Delete" but am not sorry I watched it.
