    Steven Spielberg's emotionally harrowing epic about a robot boy who become "real" so that he can regain the love his human mother is a very personal film, a deeply moving, scientific and careful.
    This was the late great Stanley Kubrick's final project as it realised by Spielberg...( read more) after Kubrick's death. The look of the film is dazzling and amazing.
    The central character, a robot boy played by Haley Joel Osment, motivates every action in the story except for the scenes in Rouge City.
    As for the ending, as brave as an idea it may of been to end on a downbeat note at "the first ending" I think the slightly upbeat ending is much more appropriate.

    Heady, enchanting sci-fi fantasy fable in three-acts that tone-shifts from ambiguous joy to delirious terror to bravura ending, and which benefits from the blend of styles from Stanley Kubrick and Steven Spielberg. Despite obvious parallels with the fairy tale Pinocchio, it manag...( read more)es to create a world of its own, alternately rich, strange and savage. Jude Law is never better than his picaresque 'mecha' Gigolo Joe, but Haley Joel Osment astonishes with a talent that carries the film to its rousing completion, the quiet dignity of which is quite stunning to behold. It might make you cry watching it or it might give you the creeps thinking about it afterwards.

    Kubrick's idea was a masterpiece, but he passed away too soon without even filming a single scene, so Spielberg rescued his wonderful idea and brought it to life. Really, without Kubrick's assistant, Spielberg did almost an impossible job to make this film amazing, full of great ...( read more)visual effects and combined with a drama that is somehow similar to Pinocchio's. A.I. is underrated, the people underestimated Spielberg's ability and they surely missed Kubrick's perfectionism and style, but I say, "Although not accurate, this is how Kubrick would have done it if he had a chance, and A.I. is full of Kubrick's styles and only the talent of Spielberg would have accomplish such a risk."

    Spielberg's A.I. is as flawed as it is ambitious, but it is the kind of misstep that could only come from a truly great director. Spielberg's vision is evident in almost every frame of this film, and I would place it among his most aesthetically breathtaking work. I thoroughly re...( read more)gret not catching it in theaters. This movie would have been an unforgettable cinema experience, and I envy those who saw it the way it was intended to be seen. It's uneven, poorly acted by a lot of the minor players, often confused, and always thrilling. It deserves to be seen for its visual bravura alone.

    An observing masterpiece about man's real place in the universe, and also about the simple, unconditional love of a child to his/her parents. It could have been very interesting for this to be finished by Kubrick himself, but Spielberg hit all the right notes and made maybe his m...( read more)ost reflective film without any explosions. Another sci-fi film with a heart that transcends emotions. Haley Joel Osment's performance was unbelievable, possibly the best performance of a child in a film that I've seen.

    Very intelligent story. The movie is a bit long but the time is really needed. SF meets Fairy tale. Really impressive and gives us lots to think about. If we'll ever have intelligent robots the moral dilemma is here already.

    This movie was originally gonna be a Stanley Kubrick film but he gave it to Spielberg because Kubrick thought that Spielberg could do the high tech graphic nature of this sci-fi movie better justice. This is a decent retelling of Pinocchio including an allusion to the story

    Would have prefered this if Kubrick had managed to finish it, but Spielberg did an OK job. It starts off really well, slowly building but then Jude Law is introduced, the pace picks up and the film goes to pieces... Still at least it always looks stunning.

    "Please make me a real boy"- David

    I'm not able to watch this film completely, but in those parts that I've watched I saw the goodness of the film. Haley Joel Osment did a great job in this film. The story is good. I just think it's a little bit overdone esp. the ending. ...( read more)The ending really sucked! I was satisfied by the David being inside the ice forever and the aliens not coming to earth. But if that happens, Merl Streep won't be in the film. Which is sad. On the brighter side, I think Steven Spielberg did a great job in this film. I hope to see more of his works.

    "David is 11 years old. He weighs 60 pounds. He is 4 feet, 6 inches tall. He has brown hair. His love is real. But he is not."

    A highly advanced robotic boy longs to become "real" so that he can regain the love of his human mother.

    A film with fantastic possibilities that is sadly flawed. Set well into the future, a cybernetics company makes the first life-like robot that is not only a boy child but imprints itself on the adopted mother and learns by developing responses based on love. Haley Joel Osment largely has to carry the film and at times I felt his innocent questioning expression wasn't quite up to it. We go back to the banality, frequently admitted in the film that, at the end of the day, he is no more than a machine. The machine may be a therapeutic tool for a mother who has lost her only natural child, but beyond that? It seemed incomprehensible to me that such a society would develop with so little in the way of ethical codes of practice, and so seemed to put the film more firmly in the younger-audience market, yet some of the scenes would be unacceptable to those younger audiences. That leaves quite a narrow bracket of, say, 12 to 18 years. The dynamics of Mother-Child emotion are played out quite well at certain times, and it would probably be enjoyed by parents who don't shy away from the obvious cheesiness or the sci-fi trappings. The film's best part, for me, was the ingenious ending, that brings further elements into play and unexpectedly gives some food for thought - though not enough to justify nearly two and a half hours of cheesy comic-adventure. Very Spielberg, but not quite in the class of his all-time greats.

    This is a wonderful film. I know that many people didn?t like it. But for the life of me, I don?t really understand why. I have heard it called too dark, to sappy, too confusing, too this, too that?

    Well I don't know what these people were expecting, or looking for in the film...( read more). But it was everything I was expecting and more. In fact for me, it works on at least two levels.

    First, there is the obvious front story. A heart tugging tale of the journey taken by a very childlike robot; who?s only desire to become a real boy so that his mother could love him. Only to learn in the end that she always did love him.

    Yes I know, but everyone points out the Pinnochio aspect of this film. I would rather compare it to how so many of us try so hard to become good enough in the eyes of GOD to be loved by him. The thing is, HE already loves us. So much so that he sent his son, Jesus, to pay the price for all of our transgressions, so that we could one day come home to be with HIM. All we have to do is realize and except HIS love.

    Second, there is the not so subtle story happening in the background. This is where the film becomes thought provoking. This back story is a close cousin to main storyline of a 1962 film titled "Creation of the Humanoids".

    Put a simply as possible; the story goes like this?

    Robots have increased in number, and are not only becoming all but indispensable, they are becoming more and more life like, more human. This of course leads to fear and resentment in some people, who take it upon themselves to hate and ?dehumanize? (so to speak) the robots. This dehumanization makes their hatred and cruelty towards the robots more palatable to other humans, many of whom then turn a blind eye to the Flesh Fairs. In the Flesh Fairs, unlicensed robots that have been captured that held in cages are torn to pieces, destroyed with acids, and tortured to the point of shutting down, all for sport and the amusement of the ?Flesh and Blooders (a term I took from the afore mentioned 1962 film).

    But in the end, it is the robots that keep the better aspects of humanity and its culture alive, long after mankind has ceased to exist upon the Earth.

    It appears obviously, not all humans hold the robots in such distain. If they did, the robots could never have reached such numbers. Nor would the robots at the end of the film have shown such reverence and awe at the memory of the long deceased humanity.


    Does anyone else see a parallel to the story of ?The Good Samaritan? (Luke 10:25-37). Too many people know the story but don?t realize that the Samaritans were a hated people. Most Jews of the day would never even speak to a Samaritan, let alone treat them with any kindness. Yet a Samaritan man, when he came upon a Jewish man who had been beaten, robbed and left for dead, stopped to help. The poor victim had been deliberately passed by and ignored by his own people. But the Samaritan, knowing that the man who lay broken and dying in the ditch was Jewish, and probably would never have even considered helping the Samaritan had their situations been reversed, not only treated and bound the wounds of the victim, he brought him to an in and paid for his further care.

    In so doing the Samaritan saved the Jewish man?s life, and became an example to the world when Jesus told his story in an effort to teach us all; that all men, even those that who at best would do us no good, and at worst would do us great harm, are our neighbors. And that as much as it lies within us, we are to love and care for them.

    A quick side note here?
    The Samaritan?s act of kindness was done as a voluntary act and out of love for his neighbor. He was not forced by law or regulation to render aid to the victim. And any so called good that is done not in love, and in accordance with ones own free will amounts to nothing. Government compulsion to give assistance of any kind to others can only lead in the end to anger and distain towards the ones receiving that assistance.

    Very good movie one of the better ones that i have seen for awhile. the story can be a bit odd at times but for something that plays like a modern version of Pinocchio it was pure gold. i finished watching this and promptly pressed play again, and then again a third time.
