Mind and Machine

A story about a sentient AI that could have been good. But the acting was unbelievably dry, the camera work was really poor, and the dialog was .. predictable and bland. I feel sorry for the actors in this movie.

But it started dreary and then got boring. It's the old rehash of ideas with none of the action. I could not even finish it. Rare.

The photography is bad, many planes closed, bad lighting and camera out of focus. The actor Sal Rastegar could fit into a Tarantino movie, but here it looks a bit out of context. In "action" scenes you never see any full-body character shots.

It is worth taking a look at the director's short films, they are better than this movie.

Yup, the acting was so wooden, you weren't really sure which characters were supposed to be robots, and which ones just had robotic actors.

So the plot is that human like robots are widely available on the market, and some criminals have gotten the brilliant idea to use them as prostitutes or assassins. Except, of course, the logic makes no sense.

This movie was made on the cheap, where they couldn't even hire a body double for the main actress to fill in for her that matched. Not to mention, no blanks and no squibs for multiple scenes involving gun shots. It's like they had no budget.

The climax builds up to the Robot realizing the people around her are using her and decides to kill them instead of the people she is hired to kill. Which again- makes no sense.

I wanted to watch this however I just can't get into it The casting is rough and storyline isn't as solid as it could of been
