Description

Amidst a future war between the human race and the forces of artificial intelligence, Joshua (John David Washington), a hardened ex-special forces agent grieving the disappearance of his wife (Gemma Chan), is recruited to hunt down and kill the Creator, the elusive architect of advanced AI who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war — and humankind. Joshua and his team of elite operatives journey across enemy lines into the dark heart of AI-occupied territory, only to discover the world-ending weapon he’s been instructed to destroy is an AI in the form of a young child, in this epic sci-fi action thriller directed by Gareth Edwards (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) from a screenplay by Edwards and Chris Weitz.

    Best original sci-fi since Avatar. Some plot holes you need to ignore and instead just enjoy the ride. The FX are worth the ticket price.

  • Brilliant

    The promise was there in Monsters and Godzilla, and the delivery began proper with Rogue One. Now several years later we have this, which much like the movie it draws much inspiration from - Blade Runner was unfairly given a rough ride by critics. But you know what, they're wrong, dead wrong, and this is the best science fiction movie in a very long time. Of course its inspirations are plain to see, Blade Runner, Ghost in the Shell, District 9, pretty much everything Syd Mead ever drew and even Boston Dyamics, but despite this The Creator is its own animal. The story, AI Vs Humans could have been predictable Hollywood flag waving nonsense but it's anything but. Visually this is top drawer stuff, outstanding from start to finish and the young actress Madeleine Yuna Voyles playing Alfie is absolutely outstanding. If you're a sci-fi fan films rarely get better than this.

    No real flaws in the film, good effects, reasonable acting, decent action sequences. However nothing of great interest either, no real character development so hard to care about anyone in the film. Story was very predictable, you’ll probably have seen many films like this before. Any political point is shallow and basic. Watched it to the end, wouldn’t watch it again.

  • Struggling with this

    The movie looks great, and it’s well acted but I’m finding difficult to connect with any of the characters or the story. I actually switched it off halfway (which is very rare for me) because I was bored. I will try again at some point and will possibly edit this review.
