The trailer looked promising, but the movie was quite bland and boring, with some really annoying characters. A little bit of action here and there, some ok designs but not much else. Not sure why they hired an actress that looks like a robot to play the only human main character. The whole movie I was waiting for them to reveal that she is a robot too.
drama with a sci-fi setting, really. the actors did a good job, i got emotional more than once thanks to the female leads. not great, but not nearly as bad as some comments imply.
A fine example of a wasted opportunity.
That little cheek rub at the end...!
Just like, "Interstellar," was a story about a Father's relationship with his daughter, this was a story about a Mother's relationship with her daughter.
Arguably, the building of tension occurs when a new lab intern, Jae-kyung, asks Yoon Seo-hyun, paraphrasing here, "You've had so many opportunities: Why don't you talk to your Mother Jung-yi?" And, when she finally does she finds out the point of failure has always traced back to Jung-yi's bond with her daughter, Yoon Seo-hyun. Upon learning this the daughter is crushed emotionally. And, even though we knew all along that the sighting of the doll was what caused the Mother to choke it is the daughter's catharsis that gives voice to our own release. Things pick up from here, emotionally and action-wise!
Predictable but not bad. Some interesting action sequences and great soundtrack. If you are looking for a cross between alita and I-robot the this might be up your alley.
It's sad to think about the fact that this ended up being Kang Soo-youns last role. Especially when the final product ended up being both predictable and boring. The whole thing seems stitched together from a lot of other films with the same A.I. theme. The action (the little of it there is) was quite decent, and it both looked and sounded very good, and the actors did good with the material they were given. Too bad it was just a generic and mediocre script...
It's not bad, but it didn't meet my expectations for action/combat part. Despite that, I don't think the story was bad, which is why I gave the movie a 6.
rare sci-fi from korea that fails to land an impact !
RIP Kang Soo-youn who passed away young !
This movie is epic. Ohhh my god.
this movie is about mother and daughter
I think this movie needs some more, the final was sort of... huh? but overall this was a good experience. nothing new in this scifi tech tough. the last scene, which mixed mother and daughter hugging themselves in the past and in the movie present, gave me goosebumps...
:heart:x6
Although this is not a great movie, it was definitely fun to watch. The production value/cgi was really great. The story was fairly basic. And towards the end, they lifted a couple of scenes directly from I, Robot(2004) although I, Robot may have lifted the same scenes from another movie for all I know.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
I enjoyed this movie..It wasn’t nothing too big..But I was enjoying to watch. I liked the graphics. I don’t know what most people in the comments are saying that it’s boring and not good, it’s at lest worth the watch and make your own rate on it.
rubbish film I would not recommend it
I'm watching the dubbed version. That Asian dude yawning in the background when they started rolling the video clip about how muh-climate-change destroyed the human civilisation must a brother, from another mother. :rofl::ok_hand_tone2:
This is good sci-fi and kept me interested throughout. The story is fairly simple, so I can't comment more without spoiling the whole thing. I would recommend giving this a try. Watch the English dubbed version, if you're not a Korean speaker.
Has a black mirror vibe, but it's done badly, I would say it's fair as an action movie, but scifi stuff not so much.

Classic science fiction, classic characters, nothing different, no surprises, CGI lacks but there are scenes that could be improved, the little action there is bland.
If you are looking for something different, this is not your movie... I "saw" it while surfing the internet
