Politically this will piss people off, but the execution of the film is excellent. The acting, the screenplay, the narrative arc, and for those looking for deeper meaning, geopolitical discord, god and heaven, and whether we (humans) are also programmed. It is an intellectual smorgasbord with excellent acting and a story to match. The fulcrum of the movie is the affection (yes it's a love story) between a robot and a human that transcends the physical. It also talks about the geopolitical (if it hurts us we will destroy everything.) A film for the times when the military objectives are brash while citizens have nuanced concerns and affections. Watch and learn the complex layering of emotions.

Let's tackle the elephant int he room. Firstly the criticism of being non-scientific. Science is a process and theories are developed so that we can refute them by generating and testing hypothesis. This series by Hancock is a valid theory. Those who criticize know very little about real science. Secondly, the archeology being pushed is wrong. There are lots of anomalies that cannot be explained. A theory must explain all anomalies. Not some that you like.

An excellent series that attempts a unified theory. As far as I can tell all the evidence Hancock cites is corroborated, the theory is a narrative that brings them as a unified story. Very well done. I would have liked better graphics about how these ancient structures operated at the time, hence 9 and not 10.
