This movie was EXCELLENT...it really made me think. It is a good demonstration of how human beings can be paralleled with robots. Because in essence, HUMANS ARE A BIOLOGICAL MACHINE. Robots run on a program to think, yet so do humans. Because, OUR BRAIN is a BIOLOGICAL PROGRAM which can break down as well (eg. memory loss, paralysis, etc.) or can be easily programmed/influenced by our environment. This movie makes you think about how fragile our minds and bodies are as well as how easily brainwashed OUR biological mind/program can get simply by absorbing all of the input/influences from our environment. So in essence, maybe that is why w

This was definately one of the best movies I`ve seen. It was very touching and I thought the movie revolved around a very interesting topic. Ever since I watched it, I`ve been thinking forever about what the world will be like in a thousand years. It would be interesting if the world would turn out as in the movie. I agree that the ending was a bit strange and it should have ended where David prays to the Blue Fairy or he is frozen in the helicopter. I thought this was a very underated movie and should have got the credit it deserved.

It was another great movie made by Speilberg and it makes you think of the hidden aspects of mankind. Osments character really made the story moving and shows true, pure, unconditional love that we often take for granted. The ending was kind of odd tho but overall, it was still a great performance~! Can`t wait to buy it

A.I. was a decent movie. It really made you take a look at the ethics involved in building machines that can "think". Where would that lead us to, and how would that ultimately impact our lives. The ending would have been better if Spielberg had left it off where Kubric had planned for the ending. Instead, Spielberg had to go "E.T" on us and creat a "happy" ending. The film wasn`t meant to have a happy ending... it was supposed to leave you thinking.

Sometime in the future of the 21st century, in a time when the Greenhouse Effect has melted the icecaps, submerging many of the coastal cities in water, mankind depends upon computers with artificial intelligence to maintain our way of life. Man has also found new friends in A.I., in the form of robots that are used for a variety of functions. This story is about a boy robot, and the emotional journey he makes toward becoming something more.
