The Creator
Oct. 1st, 2023 06:53 pmI saw The Creator yesterday. Fantastic film.
The summary makes it sound like a rip off of several cult films: AI at war with humans, a super-weapon that could end the war, a hero tormented by a devastating loss…yeah, I have seen all that before. Even the semi-religious thing is familiar. Except, this is different. Overall the story beats are a little predictable but I don’t think that matters because the story isn’t as important as the way this film subtly subverts the tropes.

Beautifully shot, se it on a huge screen if you can! Definitely one where it’s worth seeing in the big screen.
Great cast.
Boy, I’m out of practice writing reviews. This is a good film. Go see it.
