ridiculous rating

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

Fantastic!

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I feel emotional about the love between Will and Evelyn.

I don't exactly know why but I feel like the movie was kind of predictable, not in the scence that it was boring but in the scence that it felt like I'd already seen the same film a couple of times.Saying this movie had potential is an understatenebt, just by reading the synopsis I knew I'd love this film, but I didn't. Maybe they played it too safe and ended up with an Okey film, I mean there is nothing really bad about the movie, but it feels so average, specially after watching the trailer.

Transcendence is quite a difficult film to review, I left the cinema feeling rather underwhelmed, I suppose my expectations were so high, but having rewatched at home I feel I was too harsh. When you break down the film and start to see what they were trying to do, it makes more sense, the simple study of a human relationship, and the lengths people will go to for love. The special effects are dazzling, you can see a lot of bucks went into its production. Well performed, Johnny Depp is as always spot on, Rebecca Hall and Paul Bettany both perform well also. It does a good job in raising the question of human evolution, and playing on the fear people have over it. At times the script and it's delivery seem a bit clunky, very little to hate, but hard to love.Underrated 7/10

Warner Bros summary refers to anti-technology terrorists which I can't help put presume that it is a way of diminishing anyone who questions the ethics of AI technology in some areas, i.e. merging man with machine. Questioning the ethics does not make someone anti-technology. It makes them free thinking individuals whose perspectives can be rather helpful in the ongoing debate. It just seems to be an attempt to program people to accept it without question by associating them with terrorists. Subtle but definitely intentional.
