Steven Spielberg's "A.I. Artificial Intelligence" is a modern day masterpiece that will always stand the test of time due to it's subject of humans vs A.I. and can we play God amongst them. The film couldn't paint a better picture and it's told in two hours plus. I was pleased and thankful to have Rock Samson on this episode because he shares the same love I have for this film. But whether we love it or not, it's a great film. Shot and told very well by Spielberg's team including his actors. It's a challenge to pretend to play a "mecha" petending to be human, or at least, mimicking humanity. This film was released in mid-2001 and it pretty much told us what the future will for sure be like to the point where it shifts society where A.I. and humans co-exist and it's not great. Honestly, it can't be. We are a dominant spieces and we're not gonna let OUR creations run amock and try to take over us but ironically it's us humans who are going to take each other out. Just look back on our history. Rock and I go deep in this film in it's story structure, the use cinematography and VFX, the VFX alone is really good EVEN FOR IT'S TIME (2001) that still wipes out half the over-budgeted Marvel films which we discuss; we further share thoughts of the themes and philosophical concepts that go even beyond the film and it's important for us to really absorb and hold on to. Now, as much I dig this film, I do have some things that don't ring very well such as how certain event JUST happen with little narration. Ben Kingsley goes a long way with his narration but some parts I feel shouldn't take the film where it goes. Then again, it's sci-fi, I just have to believe what I'm seeing. What we see in this film, we shouldn't take for granted and Spielberg sure didn't. This film really is a work of art and I challenge other films to take it like he did. A film about searching for our own piece piece, our heavy dose of humanity to be loved. Love can definitely put you in a certain gear to act.

Four out of four tokes.
