    I can’t decide which movie to watch first. There is new cyberpunk movie from CZ, PL and SK creators called “restore point” (rough translation) and this, the creator.

    It’s quite a month for sci-fi fans.

    It’s high sci-fi rather than cyberpunk.

    It certainly has heavy cyberpunk elements, though I feel it’s potential for dealing with deeper themes was compromised by shallow writing

    Definitely cyberpunk, but not gonna lie, I don’t know if I could watch it a second time.

    I just don’t understand anything about the AI plotline. If you’re gonna make a movie about AI in this day and age it has to be something more than “robots have feelings too.” Chappie did it better. Blade Runner did it better. I, Robot did it better. Shoot, MI:8 had a way more interesting AI plotline, and that wasn’t even a major part of its marketing. The Creator spends all this time building this whole plot around the concept of AI having real emotions and impact, but doesn’t really differentiate them from humans in any significant way, showing them eating, sleeping, being part of families, and just… acting like humans, which was maybe the point? But if all you wanted to show was robots acting exactly like people, that’s the least interesting way to make that happen. (Not even getting into the issue of how AI are portrayed as fully conscious sentient beings and also killed off gruesomely for comedic effect.)

    That’s just one of my personal beefs with the story and acting and script – it tried to be an AI movie, and a Vietnam War movie, and an action movie and a drama and half a dozen other things, but about the only thing it succeeded in being was visually stunning. Which it did do well. NOMAD is definitely the best thing about this movie. That was awesome.

    I left the cinema about an hour, it definitely fits the genre very well. And also perhaps one of the best films of the year…
