A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001) Review



Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law on the A.I. movie poster.

DJ Benvenuto the "Gigolo Joe" Raccoon has this to say:

Good morning? Good night?

I don’t know. It’s 2:15 AM and here I am updating the site.

Well, you want to know what’s been going on, right? Yeah, you do. It’s 2:15 and I’m hungry. There should be 4 meals a day... Ok, I’ll stop babbling.

Now, what can I say? Oh yes, well, The Funk Mistress, DJ Fuji, DJ Hadoken, BurpingCat, The Minstrel, two other of BurpingCat’s homeys and I, went to see A.I. yesterday (and we went to GameWorks, of course).

So as soon as I got out of work, we got tickets and went to GameWorks and off to see another of the “SUMMER MOVIES”!!!

Well, I’ll try not to spoil too much, but I’ll warn you before any big spoilers. You see, it’s my job as the official RIA movie critic to tell you about this movie.

Why? Because I care!

So what did I think of the movie overall? Well, I can’t say it was bad. Nor can I say it was as enjoyable as Memento (awesome movie).

It was certainly a unique film, to say the least.

Well, I’ll just get to the bad points.

The last half hour was definitely lacking something. It’s almost as if they ran out of ideas and just used a quick fix.

Maybe another reason I didn’t like the last half hour much is because I had to pee so bad. I’ve never had to pee so bad in my life. I ran out of that movie as soon as it ended and unloaded my bladder (in the unisex bathroom of course).

My kidneys started hurting afterwards. I think I reaaaaally had to go, especially due to to the whole kidneys thing.

Well, now I recommend only people who have already seen the movie read the following.

BE WARNED CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!
(HIGHLIGHT TO READ BETTTER)

Well, okay. If you are still reading, then you don’t care about the spoilers.

So it’s not my fault.

Haley Joel Osment. Great actor, but not what I liked most about this movie.

Teddy. Not even a real person. He’s David’s (Haley Joel’s) toy, a super teddy bear. A wise, chain-smoking, super teddy bear. How can you go wrong with that?!

Jude Law. Well, now his character, Gigolo Joe, was one of the best in the movie. He was an amusing, smooth talkin’, mechanical love machine. Worst thing they could’ve done? “Kill” him off 30 minutes before the movie ended.

In fact, I felt so bad for him that I made a little tribute to him. A homage you could say. A Homage to Gigolo Joe Featuring Teddy! (It’s at the end of this review. Scroll down.)

Well, what else can I say? Oh! Well, like I said, the ending seemed as if they ran out of ideas, so they just added some aliens and wrapped it up, then rolled credits.

They weren’t just any aliens either. They were anorexic aliens, to quote The Funk Mistress. They seemed to... well, I don’t know...

Well, overall, I liked it. See it for yourself.

Way better than Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, for sure.

So, all I gotta say is...

A.I. is worth watching but the ending might be too outlandish for some.

Now, what else should I say.....?

Ever been with a mecha before?
