Crafted brilliantly, Spielberg's technical precision can't be denied, it's not even up for debate :)). Again, magical music by John Williams, really excellent cinematography by Janusz Kaminski, and Spielberg's script based on a story by Kubrick is also very good... But now comes the "but" :)) But despite the sympathetic performance of H.J. Osment and the great Jude Law, I was just missing something, something extra, the SOMETHING that maybe Close Encounters of the Third Kind had... And I still felt that Spielberg pushed the envelope a bit at the end, but that may just be my silly subjective feeling. Nevertheless, an extraordinary and repeatable experience!

This is supposed to be Spielberg’s dud? In that case, my opinion of his filmography has increased manifold... A film imperfect due its overly sentimental approach, but beautiful nonetheless in its narrative playfulness and the view of events through an eternally fascinated child's "mind" that best reveals Steven's own fascination with the subject matter. Kubrick would be pleased. 85%

A concept from Stanley Kubrick, directing from Steven Spielberg, and in the end, a beautiful film full of naive searching, simple and human thoughts, breathtaking performances by Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law, and a conclusion that will blow your mind. I admire this film for being able to combine traditional Spielbergian family values with a fascinating vision of the future, a plethora of technical gadgets, and many intellectual stimuli.

No, I wasn't expecting miracles, which was good, because there weren't any. The emotions of the story of the "dream robot" are maintained mainly by the flawless Osment, but it is a pity that Spielberg has kind of forgotten how to make an ending. Like Minority Report, A.I. is stretched into an awkward happy ending. If the credits had surfaced a few minutes earlier, it would have been an excellent film, but the offered end is hellish nonsense. It’s too bad. Convincing visually and in terms of acting, this is a science fiction with a little more thoughtful subtext, but Spielberg can do better. Add a half to the three stars.

A little different than I expected, but that's probably what made A.I. that much better. Spielberg's science fiction movies are among my favorites, and this one's no exception. Especially the ending (featuring the World Trade Center) was very impressive. Spielberg simply knows how to do these things. Haley Joel Osment was great and really impressive in his special role. The special effects are top notch, Williams' music is one of the best, and Teddy is cool :-).
