why do i rate this a 9. this be not a movie that pander to the and live happily ever after fairy tale mindset . this be about a grab for power by a powerful entity and the desperate effort to prevent it . it be intelligent and surprising . do not miss the last few minute . this movie have a masterful sting in the tail . excellent . first time i saw it i almost do not believe how it end . the technology be antiquate and true . but the idea be not . this be not an abstract creation like skynet and this adversary talk to u and reason . not necessarily to kill u but for other purpose and but that doesn not mean it wont kill you . view for content and idea not glitzy special effect and anyway i think we be over that kind of science fiction these day . science fiction movie tend to be pale feeble imitation of science fiction novel . but forbin be very satisfying . fast pace and intelligent and surprising . what more could you want . pete .
