Thoughts
This sounded like an interesting concept, although the film was released a little before the current AI boom we're experiencing. But it wasn't. It was boring, and very hard to care about. We spent very little time with the main character before things started to go awry, so the stakes didn't seem very high. I deployed the twenty minute rule here and quite firmly switched off.
