    ....a treasure house of sci adventures rolled into a noir setting with heart. Quality acting, script, and production. I wish there was a series of these like the holiday movies because the story has legs, and the characters to begin a great journey forward.

    Slow, bad acting, poor casting. A cheap production with a terrible script. Sam Worthington's performance was particularly cringe worthy.

    This movie is all around terrible. It really doesn't make sense and we have this wanna be Tom cruise main character…

    Simulant is another sci-fi movie about AI robots. It's barely worth a watch if you're into those types of things. The movie started interestingly enough. As they introduced each character played by known actors, there were initially appealing elements to each. The husband and wife (played by Robbie Amell and Jordana Brewster), the cop (played by Sam Worthington), the first AI to go awry (Alicia Sanz), and the genius who helps robots become more sentient (played by Simu Liu). While it started well and even stayed entertaining for at least half of the film, it started to lose steam and ended with a whimper. The writers and director could have provided more of what it means when the AI robots became free (and effectively showed nothing after the "big event"), and further explored the husband and wife's relationship but didn't. The film left me hoping for more.

    Simulant is another sci-fi movie that falls into the "interesting premise, terrible execution" category. The acting was fine, the writing was decent, but the man vs. machine plot felt like an unnecessary layer. The movie would have been more compelling if it had remained focused on the conflicting love story between Evan and Faye.

    Simluant is a sci-fi thriller starring Robbie Amell, Simu Liu, and Jordana Brewster and follows a humanoid AI clone that attempts at winning the heart of a grieving widow as a government agent tries to stop the humanoids from becoming conscious. Honestly, this movie feels like a movie about AI that was written by an AI generator. The movie really lacks when explaining and setting rules in place for how things work with the AI which makes the whole idea that the story and movie is revolved around just confusing and difficult to follow. I think the actors did a good job, Sam Worthington was great as the antagonist, Simu Liu is another actor that I thought did an awesome job. This movie also lacked that thrill factor when it came to the story and the action. Overall, Simulant has an okay story that is difficult to follow and get invested into but I do think there will be people who enjoy this film. C-

    Total waste of time. (Spoken like Chandler Bing) Could it BE any slower?
  • Rating: 1.5 out of 5 stars
    I honestly don't think that anyone was asking for a slower, lower budget remake mashup of iRobot and Westworld. But Hollywood seems to be solely in the business of making things that nobody is asking for these days.

    This is a rip off of the replicated man quest from fallout 3? Favorite fallout 4 ending was the minute men, even if there was another settlement
