Quick Movie Reviews

[jackofallgeeks]

I, Robot -- Thumbs Up. I liked it both for itself and for the concepts it discussed. Good Movie.
AI - Artificial Intelligence -- Thumbs Down. I liked what it was talking about, but I think it pulled most of it off really poorly. it tried to do three things when I think it would have been better to just stay with two. And the movie would have been so much better if they left of where they should have; so very much more sad, but so much better.

Strictly speaking, I did like it... except that I feel cheated out of a reasonable ending. I think, really, that's my only actual grudge against it.

I think my friend Emily liked it.

We all liked I Robot in this house ... in fact we purchased a copy and watch it over from time to time.

None of us has ever expressed any interest in seeing AI, and now I'm glad we've never bothered.

Thanks for the reviews!

cool. i liked "i, robot" as well. i didn't think it was the greatest movie itself, but i thought the concepts and messages they were trying to get across were good.

I felt much the same, though it's difficult for me to admit that without getting "OMG WTF HOW CAN ANY MOVIE STARRING WILL SMITH HAVE ANY RELEVANCE ARE YOU A FAN OF REAL CINEMA OR AREN'T YOU OMG OMG OMG TRAITOR TO THE CAUSE" from several directions. But I liked the damn movie, and I pretty much love Will Smith. So there.

I've actually liked a number of movies Will Smith has done. I think that number is two, but still... I think he does a pretty good job. He's at least as good an actor as, say, Harrison Ford.

Your... I really don't know what to think of that icon. But it makes me giggle. And I think that makes me a bad person.  :p

::laughs:: Well, I don't think it does. It makes me giggle too, mainly because of how ludicrous the source of the icon was. Ohhhh Tijuana bibles... >__
