First of all I am an experienced software developer and I can say that I could not find a major flaw on technical side of the story. The story uses real evens I could name 2-3 cases that I remember from the news.

Characters were well written. Of course it was lacking Hollywood stars but the text was fine and acted well enough.

I hate blockbuster Hollywood movies counting on 3D effects only. If you are after intelligence, a technical guy, a sci-fi enthusiast or a geek I strongly recommend that you watch this mini series.

I couldn't understand why Transendence was so underrated and now I know why. People still do not believe these may happen one but believe it is totally possible given the current technological level and speed of progress.

Anyway I would give an 8 but it is so underrated that I needed to give a 9.

This could have been a very good sci-fi movie with a larger budget and a better cast. The three main characters - Daniel Gerson, Jesse White and Max Hollis - were played by mediocre actors. None of the three were at all charismatic or charming. The supporting cast was somewhat better.

The basic plot of the movie is interesting enough, and the screenwriting isn't bad. The direction had some imperfections, but I've seen worse.

Overall the movie is not terrible, and keeps one's attention easily enough. But could have been much better with a more capable main cast. It's not one I would recommend, but I would not advise anyone to avoid it.

this is a real sleeper. on 2nd episode, lots of action, good real tech. streaming it on Netflix. i highly recommend it. it is based on a AI intelligence that just forms in the internet. it starts by testing computer controlled systems. taking them down. watching how the CIA does the same thing. then it starts attacking known threats, like hackers who were fighting it. it is a series that i guess was on TV somewhere, but i never saw it previously. 1 hour episodes. the main female character is pretty hot. the government players are mostly competent, and not fully evil, as most of this genre of series has. but they do not really know what they are up against, and need the help of this one hacker, one FBI agent, and the female reporter.

You've got movies so bad they're good, movies so good they're impenetrable, and then you've got irredeemable garbage. I gave it two stars for interesting camera angles. Other than that -- really -- find something else.

Most characters, most ideas are believable, then the boss of the NSA (such an easy career path of course) chooses to set the world alight to save his one daughter, then ridiculous military hot head overrides the president of the USA. If only someone had taken a good idea and kept it credible, but it's like someone with talent started the story well, but a janitor (no offence to janitors) was asked to write the middle and ending.

Watched it to the end just out of curiosity as to how they ended it. Not as bad as I expected.

Well shot, camerawork style was OK, lens flares effect overused, some good ideas, and overall its OK. Good acting mostly, just some over the top scenes almost certainly insisted upon by a director not confident enough in the scene. Could have been better.
