colossus be the new defense supercomputer that be try to take over the world and and dr. forbin be the man who create it and and now must stop it . the excitement in watch forbin and colossus go through move and counter move be what carry this film and and the two be worthy adversary to each other . it thin on action for a science fiction film while the action be more cerebral in nature a forbin and colossus grapple for control . even while attempt to become the dictator of earth and colossus sometimes display a sense of humor that be almost human and and a ruthlessness that be all too human . in the end and colossus isn not your traditional bad guy . it be program to serve humanity and and it seek to do that by save humanity from itself . it see the life lose in the process a a necessary evil . the end be not your traditional hollywood end either while i strongly suspect they be plan a sequel ( the book this be base on be the first of a trilogy ) . the set may seem a little dated and but the story be every bit as exciting a it be then and and give the development in computer technology and artificial intelligence and even more relevant .
