the new intelligent machines will soon allow us to calm her most intractable
challenges
the to develop new mothers for the early detection of cancer
to build a better future for all of us simply put to save lives
lol know what fleck I'm Christie Alonso mad
they thought transcendent last night I did not get my husband and I had mixed
signals into different theaters
so you both for their own thing I was there I wanna hear like where are you
calling 702 are y'all like
I'm lobby here that the I'm in lobby this would happen if what are you had
your brain uploaded into a computer
it ollie i weird I def nice transition year ago maybe do so. Johnny Depp is the
the world's leading expert in artificial intelligence and
on a day when a bunch of luddite terrorists take out most of the AI
geniuses in america if there aren't they had things as in other countries we are
never told about them
I Johnny Depp is shot and while the bullet only grazed and it is coated with
a
the radioactive substance that gives about two weeks to live so he and his
loving and bring your wife Rebecca Hall
and their best friend Paul Bettany decide the best thing to do is to
uploaded on a computer
what could go wrong here take a look months online
its analytical power home will be greater
the collective intelligence %uh every member's born
in the history of the world
lucia independence from technology risk
it hey I'm still over the country we're looking at five weeks before system just
I'm gonna keep for hacking we can upload his consciousness
can save has three missed how will you know who you dealin
well
stop by my husband's tree said he's radioactive but does not become Spider
Man
of you that we can both him and what he got by crime now I'm he got the people
doing everything wrong
yeah I do so with bread though the way this movie set up is that you got
these different you know livermore labs whatever they're all working on
different facet survey I
one of the guys who dies who is played by the
someone recognized for free every a like new literally no dialogue anyway I'm
has successfully uploaded the entire consciousness have a rhesus monkey
onto a computer and so they decide to
to follow his footsteps and upload
Johnny Depp's brain into computer and intercourse you know
the brain gets into the Internet and things get you know all that up
other than as in Belk raises awareness in be ok with it
yes and I think with so which is a cool idea and this this is a movie that
starts out seeming like it's going to be about something it's about you know
are reliant upon technology and how much are we willing to subsume our humanity
to
you know the machines and when the Skynet become you know
active in all that's up and then it just kinda fritters
everything away it stops being interesting it stops having a point of
view it becomes very sort a routine kind of thriller
it doesn't want to address any of the big questions and asked early on and it
just gets kinda dull
literally directing debut at Wally Pfister who is Christopher Nolan's long
time DP
at least look cool it looks fine much greater yeah I mean yeah it's great
because Matt not great
okay yeah interesting I saw an IMAX didn't blow me away look fine to me
it you know he does he falls back on a lot of the things that you would expect
in a movie like this
for example a super computers thinking so what are we get
screens followed gibberish characters you okay then a lot to those long white
sci-fi hallways you know like in the Andromeda Strain virgin forest
which looks pretty cool but in with this boy is born
yeah you know at what other reviews that I saw that we have up on Rotten Tomatoes
the pull cord says like this is basically a feature-length
TED talk tonight and that kinda the way it comes out a great the AP said that
take care K
to get online I to totally sums up my feeling on this movie
exactly like its it raises some interesting ideas but the drama is not
there
right like this if this movie was more if Christopher Nolan had done this and
added some drama to it
this would be a really top-notch movie and be something that people talk about
for a long time the way they do with inception
but this one the emotions not there just never gets there its know her
about to ask you to look at his side a computer do we
when he gets uploaded do we see him in his physical former it is proud to him
because he makes he makes a face so he the he literally appears on screen as
the
Johnny Depp face made up ones and zeros with Max Headroom
yeah specified I decided to go through to thank you
a open if we're talking about stories where somebody gets
copied into a computer batteries a much better story
and I honestly like much more interesting about the
answers and questions that it brings up this one like yeah it kinda get into
you know what the singularity might mean and whether or not a eyes can get
smarter than us and
you know are we playing with fire but then
it him its and becomes the stroller and then at the very end
it only kinda dropped the ball with all the points that its traffic
and it really it well nothing in the supporters but it's one of those movies
that begins with the ending you know I could tell it shows you the aftermath
mints like seven years earlier
which you can get away with in a movie where
there's the route you got another card to play at the AGM
but once you circled around on your back to that any again it's not
all that interesting and then they kinda want to bring this cop out
but what seemed like it might there might be some actual sort of steaks and
consequences
maybe not well I'm one of the things that the movie
doesn't do well is it it tries to talk about how
people hard to understand and they're gonna be horrified
and you know tries to make the point that
computer Johnny Depp has gone too far in certain think so early on
he does about your like really fast high volume trading and suddenly
his wife has billions right
and then at one point because he's messing with nanotechnology
he fixes somebody that's been injured but they're not totally autonomous
anymore because they're walking around with the nanotechnology there had
and he couldn't somewhat control that the Bantams invasion of the Body
Snatchers
basically he didn't plug in well I because that way
and and as people find that out there's this
they're supposed to be and Rebecca Hall reflects this is the best thing in the
movie by the way I
and and you know the characters as they find this out
are horrified but as a viewer you just don't care
right and that's the biggest problem like either show me
you make me feel the horror that the characters are feeling about what this
computer program has done
or gonna flip side and show
you know share his frustration with people not understanding
that what he's trying to do but it doesn't do either it's also a straw man
argument with a guy you know
you could make a case about technology being good or bad or dangerous whatever
but big the movie loads the deck by having anybody who gets
the nanotech in them becomes you know part I love the Johnny Depp conjures a
little
who's going to be for that you know I'm chorus
yeah it's a lot alike tied up does so well is with his physicality
if you'd like capped in a little box have numbers is it always do what he can
do that how is Ian
not all the time even when he's alive be he doesn't really
you don't buy necessarily that he is this brilliant scientists like he
doesn't
his I'm not saying that he is dumb but maybe you know he doesn't
beers and radiate that kinda love eccentricity or or sort of intense
you know thought process the you might expect from somebody like that
II but again Rebecca Hall is dynamite she's she's
she walked away from the film good poll but his father but I but I think you'll
recall specifically
really anchors this thing into something resembling humanity
like she her relationship with Johnny Depp in a relationship with Johnny Depp
is the one thing that I love tethers this movie to a kinda recognizable
reality
and and I found her really powerful every office fired like you know the
you got the Christopher Nolan day players and you know Morgan Freeman's
and Cillian Murphy
I the kate mara has nothing to do
from as a as a cyber terrorist I don't know it said
in this is a real disappointment I think people were excited about this movie
because that the people involved in it seems like it's gonna be
timely in you know zeitgeist e but
it really doesn't work unedited certainly I think
if her while it doesn't get too into the weeds about the actual tak
does explore the the man-machine interface in a way
but this will be flirt with it as a reliever have your say about this shit
there sir
shocking lack emotion here and that's the biggest problem its
before you even if you don't care doesn't you know election it's
interesting
but you get appointments like II kinda got the questions you
so as long as all in two hours live about.com him
right yeah iraq numbers friend I
a good a four-point aids for you know for working for a while and before it
didn't
for okay to the averaged 24.4 is like giraffe to her drawing
yeah that's what's 15 percent on its way to me right now yeah it was in the
thirties and the twenty analysis plumbing so basically it sucks
I'm gonna go see anyway cuz I have to by think
