Superinteligência

Carol Peters (Melissa McCarthy) has a bad job interview at a computer company. The computer AI Superintelligence (James Corden) takes an interest. It intends to study her as an average person. The fate of humanity is at stakes. Her best friend Dennis Caruso (Brian Tyree Henry) is a computer scientist. George Churchill (Bobby Cannavale) is her ex-boyfriend.

This has a big premise but it goes small into a small romance match-making. The AI turns into e-harmony. The idea is to pair the highest of stakes with the lowest of hurdle. The idea should be building a friendship between Carol and the Superintelligence. That's the pairing that this movie needs. The plot concentrates on the wrong pairing.

This is a rom-com not a sci-fi movie. It's just a fun little romp, take it for what it's worth. I did take an entire star away for spelling Pike Place Market wrong. 😁

Surprised at all the bad review. Very entertaining and funny. A definite 6 out of 10.

Just as Carol Peters is listed as the most average person in the entire world, this movie similarly fits the part of most made-for-streaminng titles. It's some nice, innocuous fun that provides some pretty good jokes (with a few belly laughs) and a familiar storyline that is neither overly offensive nor particularly mind-blowing. Pop yourself some popcorn, pour a glass of wine and snuggle up to your partner and turn your brain off for 90 minutes while McCarthy provides some pretty good entertainment.

It's a romantic comedy, but all in all it had a lot of funny parts throughout and my spouse and I both enjoyed it. I feel like the 4.6 rating currently is lower than it deserves for sure.
