Summary: Sorry, this movie wasn't as good as people here are saying!!
Review: A.I., which could have easily been a blockbuster smash, ended up crashing in the last hour. The concept was great, and Osment deserves at least two oscars for his outstanding performance, but A.I. fails miserably. This movie would have been so much better, but THE ENDING WAS TERRIBLE and made no sense.

For the first hour of A.I., you will be locked in as the story moves at an exciting pace, and yes the "chills" you may have heard about are all there, making this movie seem often sad, dreery, and depressing, but the last hour seems painfully long. The main problem I found with this is, the ending just got carried away. What a shame, this could have really been an awesome summer movie.

The special effects are awesome, but we are at a time when that is just expected, and it isn't enough to save this movie, even with the incredible acting.

Some scenes were done well, and there is plenty of humor, but the laughs soon turn into moans. If anything, A.I. is different, but saying this was Spielberg's best film, is insulting to his previous masterpieces.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Completely Amazing
Review: There is nothing about this movie I didn't like. In fact, this is how Science Fiction movies are supposed to be. It is a deep emotional movie that I saw yesterday and I will see it again tomorrow. I can't stand not being in the theater right now. Another thing is Teddy. He is cute and that could be all you see, but if you pay attention, he is a very deep and thoughtful bear. Very powerful. Very Sad. Very Good. A little too weird for some of the people I was with.

"We are in a cage." - Teddy

Summary: Outstanding! A beautiful film!
Review: Ok, the film starts out alittle slow and the relationship between David and his family seems forced and not too believable at first, but once this film gets started it really becomes something special. This is one of the strangest and best films I have ever seen. It's the most touching film I've seen since Titanic, Haley Joel Osmond's performance was magnificant. His performance along with the bizarre atmosphere Steven Spielberg presents gives the viewer no choice but to be captivated by this tale. The Teddy Bear is also a wonderful part of this film. On the technical side, the special effects are outstanding, the best CGI I think I've seen. I thought it was alot more believable than the CGI in Star Wars Episode I. This is a teriffic and unique movie, the best I've seen in a long time.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Plodding, boring, and pointless
Review: I just got home from the theater and I still feel like an idiot for wasting money on this film. Sure, there were some really nifty special effects, and Osment is a great young actor and all that stuff, but this movie is S - L - O - W, and can't really seem to decide what kind of film it wants to be. Is it a tender story about a young boy trying to fit into a foster family? A future-shock horror film about the terrors of the future? An indictment of humanity? A testament to man's genius? A warning about the greenhouse effect? It seems to stagger drunkenly from one act to the next, shifting its style and its focus, never letting us in on where it's going, who we're supposed to care about, or what it all means. Just when you think it's about to mercifully end, it staggers off in a new direction, bringing in even more ridiculous and convenient plot turns than before. My wife and I both found ourselves begging for it to be over (repeatedly), and found it hard to keep our frustration silent (just in case somebody near us might actually be enjoying this film).

I enjoy science fiction, I love cool CGI, I loved Osment's performance in The 6th Sense, and as a father I'm a real sucker for films that have nice emotional payoffs where family matters are concerned. This film tries to deliver but just falls flat. (Though I will say that Jude Law was good -- one of the few characters I found interesting.) Other reviews on this page talk about tears streaming down faces and standing ovations; there was none of that here tonight (and the theater was pretty full).

If you are a Kubrick or Spielberg sycophant, if you are am incurable CGI junkie, or if you would like to pay $7 to $10 to see a few minutes of guys in glowing suits riding around on wolfish motorcycles, then I guess you should go see this movie. But if, like me, you need to spend your movie dollars wisely this summer, then I can't help but believe that Evolution, Pearl Harbor, Jurassic Park III, or any of a number of other selections will be a much better expenditure of time and money. At the very least, defer your viewing until there are enough reviews piled up here to make an informed choice.

It is possible that most people will like this film and I am just one of the few who "didn't get it" -- but boy, do I wish I had been warned. This is one of the biggest disapointments I've had in the theater in a long time.

Summary: worst movie of all time?
Review: in my opinion.. yes. i honestly haven't seen anything that bad in a long, long time. i'm actually considering a lawsuit against spielberg to get those three hours of my life back.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Haley Joel Osment RULES!
Review: Having trouble finding the perfect human being.Look into buying a MECHA.Or,save yourself a few million bucks and buy this excellent video instead.

Haley Joel Osment,currently my favorite actor,delivered another star studded performance in "Artificial Intelligence." ....

I heard there were a couple of movie critics who referred to this movie as pointless.If they're so smart,I would love to see just how great of a movie they could turn out.SOME movie critics will say that the director made the movie all wrong,and yet,they have NO suggestions on how to make the movie "Float Their Boat" So to speak.

Ok,I'm getting off the subject.So I'm going to wrap it up here. Haley Joel Osment was excellent,so was the supporting cast.Steven Spielberg did an excellent job.Everyone behind the scenes did an excellent job too.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sadly disappointing
Review: This was the worst movie I've seen in about a year. The plot was laboring and implausible; the characters' dialogue was repetitious. ....The premise had such promise -- that an artificial life form could almost become real. I'd really hoped for so much more from DreamWorks.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It touched the crowd I saw it with
Review: I was not expecting the amount of introspection the movie would cause. How much DO you care about a machine that can love. Do you, can you separate the love from the machine. Or, in fact, is it love that needs to be respected and cherised no matter from where it comes.

The first 2/3rds of the movie are 5+ stars. The last 5, because it is SO hard to suspend disbelief and enjoy like the first. But it was still great.

I loved not knowing the plot (much) before going in. I hope you can have the same great surprise. You WILL think about this movie long after seeing it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My Review On A.I.
Review: I have seen a lot of good movies in my life. Movies like Titanic, The Sixth Sense, and even a lot more. But i have to tell you- i have never seen a movie like this before. This is the best movie i have ever seen in my whole life. I thought that Haley Osment was great in the Sixth Sense, but in this movie i can't even say how good he was. Now i am just a kid and i am in love with Haley Joel Osment but he was so good in it- if it was someone else- i wouldn't have liked the movie. I thought the ending was amazing and I couldn't have thought of a better one. Right when Haley Osment blinked his eyes-- my heart was pounding and there were good tears dropping down my eyes. No I don't think this was a movie for people the age of 10 and younger because it was a little confusing and it was a serious movie-- there were only about 3 parts that you can laugh at but everything else, younger kids can't understand. I would like to tell Steven he did an amazing job, Jude Law had a very hard part but he played it awsome and for Haley Osment, you are the best actor i have ever seen in my life and i would do anything to meet you and i look up to being like you because i am 1 year younger than you- but i want to be just like you! The only thing i would change in this movie was to make it not as much a fairytale because practically the whole movie was a fairytale. Some of the fairytale parts you can keep but when he is under water than he hugged the blue fairy- that took up way to much time. There was only one part i didn't understand. Did David (Haley Joel Osment) die at the end or did he just go to bed with his mom?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A.I. a movie for the 21 century
Review: A.I. a movie that brought the Pinocchio story to the 21-century level. Breath-taking and Remarkable. Haley Joel Osment was stunning in his performance. Steven Spielberg did it again. Job well done. A movie that makaes as imagine about our future with technology.
