Let's be realistic.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I don't think women purposely step in puddles when going out. You're in he kitchen already, grab a knife!Super freak... he's smart enough to close the door behind him. This guy would be played well by Patrick Wilson. Hide those somewhere. You think he noticed?That is not what I expected. He is so easily annoyed, and well she should. She should have pointed out the hard way will take time. "I'm welll aware"He is sharing too much. Isn't deleting his code counter productive?You are not a friend.Tie him up. Whilhelm

Sorry, but I couldn't finish this movie. Despite being a pretty good looking film with some OK special effects and decent acting (which is why I gave it 3 stars), the movie is just so dumb. So we got this guy, who kidnaps people that society doesn't care about, so he can restrain them to chairs and do these weird electrical-impulses to the brain (maybe the movie explains this later, I didn't get that far) for some research project, and then throws them back in a cell with wrist and mouth restraints. Long story short, this pretty chick blows up a part of his house (which sets off no alarms), she gets two of his subjects killed by some robot, and then he restrains her again. Then we get to a part where she's like "hey, if you let me do whatever the hell I want, I'll participate in your research" to which he does smartly reply "I mean, I kept you tied up and did it anyway, what's your point? I'll just do that" but then he follows that up with "but ok I'll let you roam the house for no reason, and buy you clothes, too, cause I suddenly trust you girl who blew up my house and tried to escape!". So now, I guess he no longer needs to strap people to chairs and do brain experiments, he just leaves this chick who messed everything up to do what she wants so long as she does some puzzles during the day, and surprise surprise, she's still trying to escape. I think the tipping point for me was when he casually remarks that he doesn't want the computer to know certain things like the outside world or whatever, and of course he then leaves the house and two seconds later she's telling the computer all the things she's not supposed to tell it and developing some weird friendship with it. I watched a little more after that but barely remember it, I checked out and decided it was too dumb to finish.

Sorry but Gary Oldmans voice as the AI-Computer just put me off! I only watched 30 mins and could not finish the film, sorry but I love GO, always have and always will but he was mis-cast here, he's trying to do a weird voice which is just wrong. No idea how it ends, sorry.

There are many AI films out there, most of which end up being ridiculously preachy and try to beat the audience over the head with lessons about morality, how we treat others, etc.This movie doesn't do that. Tau delivers a very unique and enjoyable take on the AI experience. We get a really believable AI with a human counterpart. The two play off each others experiences perfectly, and deliver a truly riveting performance.We don't get the usual "AI taking over the world" cliche or the "I'm so human, please love me" idiocy. We get an AI that is truly inhuman, but still far more humane than most characters in such films. And we see a woman who is both victim and hero rolled into one, who for a change actually acts in intelligent and believable ways.This movie is a must see. Either enjoy it as a great sci-fi flick about AI, or as a wonderful drama about overcoming impossible odds (and honestly I'm not even a fan of most dramas). Definitely add this movie to your watch list. You won't regret it.
