It is a performances centric movie
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The acting in this movie is really good.
I don't normally care for writing reviews but this movie and all its awful splendor taught me that I am perhaps a closeted masochist. It was so painful to watch and yet I had to see it through. To be fair I thought the ending would somehow redeem the first 1.5 hours of hot mess that this was but nope. Points for the oversimplitic antagonist goals.Points lost for taking 5+ minutes to explain said oversimplitic points.
How does the main lead have perfectly new store bought clothes and a salon haircut????
There is so much bad here that I will start with the good. This is a film you watch in the off chance that you are stuck in an elevator and begin to play worst films ever. When someone brings up Singilarity, you will immediately become friends.This film is told in three parts. The opening with overcrowded Mega cities and robots seemed promising. However, there is no backstory on why wars are being waged or who is fighting whom.The middle part doesn't exactly make sense.The AI kills 8 Billion people over night. It then spends near 100 years and over an hour of story time searching for stragglers and El Dorado sorry Aurora. The AI spends considerable resources on this remnant of humanity. It's never really established why, or what all that other robo-tech used to kill the first 8 Billion is doing.The third phase is that it's revealed that Aurora is a different planet. The heroine has fallen for a Trojan Horse Adaptive Android who was created to infiltrate, find Aurora and destroy the last human city. Welp, the heroine ignores that existential conundrum and says she cannot go to Aurora without the Android. The space ship leaves. Armed with the coordinates to Aurora the John Cusick powered AI sends a fleet to purge humanity. Movie ends.That's the highlights. There is stiff acting, as well as a droning musical score that was likely created in Apple'e Garage Band software. The lighting is spotty. What suckers you into the film is the John Cusack and Carmen Argenziano billing until you realize that Cusack is just mailing it in. Cusack used to be a promising young actor. Now you pine for his sister's IS Cellular commericials. The other atttractive thing is the premise. However the execution is a complete fail.Lastly, I look forward to hearing about the amazing stories Julian Schanffner tells his Uber passengers about his brief fling in acting. He was simply the word that describes five notches below horrible.Watch the film and be inspired to write a review. It's the minimum recompense you are due for your time.
I love sci-fi and even good B movies, this however was a total pile of steaming garbage. I really wanted to like this movie, but there were just no good points.
