I just saw the movie A.I.

This movie is really strange.
I couldn't believe that this woman let David alone in the woods. Why did not she destroy him?
The end was weird!!! It thought it would end when tried to kill himself, then again when he was frozen in the ice and wehn the real end came I couldn't believe how stupid it was.
By the way it is not possible to extract human dna from hair (cause there simply is no dna in hair) except you have the intact root of a hair. That's quite an obvious mistake.
 
a.i. was a great story, but I still feel bittersweet about it. after all, stanley kubrick spent two decades writing it, then waiting for the technology to develop to film it. unfortunately he died in his sleep after filming eyes wide shut, so kubrick's wife decided steven spielberg should direct it instead. I think he did an ok job, but it wasn't the right type of film for him to begin with. what do you want, though? it's spielberg. he's a decent director, I guess. I thought close encounters of the third kind was awesome, and indiana jones and jaws, but, c'mon, there was no way he was gonna get a.i. right.
 
It's just that the end kind of freaked me out!
I can live with an open end, although I would have liked it to kill David off, but what he did was something between these two options. Aren't there any rules against something like that? :D
He is a good director but sometimes I suspect that he has watched too many Disney movies.
 
I started following the progress of the film way back, before spielberg ever entered the picture. I became pretty obsessed with it. I'm lucky in a sense, because a.i. is never going to seem like a disney film to me. it may be covered up by shitty acting and an inappropriate soundtrack, but it still invokes the darkest, loneliest feelings, more than any other film (except neon genesis: evangelion). read up on it online. you might get a different image of, or perspective on, the ending and what it originally meant.
 
Thanks!
I just was looking at this site and there a kind of program is chatting with me and it's really creepy!

So this things at the end of the movie were advanced robots? I thought they were aliens?!
 
no, hal from 2001: a space odyssey. a.l.i.c.e. (the bot you were just chatting with) idolizes him.

I appreciate useless knowledge. :D

I just looked at some A.I. reviews and they all came to the conclusion that
Spielberg has overdone the end. He should have stopped, but with these syrupy crap at the end he ruined it for me. :eek:
 
I liked AI. Not a great movie but it seemed to stay in my mind for days after I viewed it.

Who do you think would have made a good director for this film?
 
I think the problem with the movie, 'A.I', was that it was Kubrick's baby handled by Speilberg - resulting in a peculiar mix of two excellent, but very different film-makers.

As for the end...it should have finished with him trapped beneath the BIG wheel...
and yes, those things were advanced robots
...the movie is called'A.I.', not 'E.T.'!
