The worst final half hour of any movie ever made.

You have got to see this purely to experience the ending. It is memorable for all the wrong reasons.

   While this film is not perfect, I think you need to expect an thinking-mans/woman film and not a sci-fi FX bonanza and the above reviewer obviously expected the latter. In addition, this film will be entirely different for those who have children. Those who don't - you just won't get it. Really.
   
   The relationship and love between mother and child (both real and artificial) is very powerful in this film to those who do have children, and this is Spielberg's forte.
   
   For kids watching this - it is wasted on them. In about 15 years time this will become a classic. I remember when I saw T1 in a B-movie cinema in London when it first came out (not the second release). I knew this was going to be 'discovered'. AI is the same.
   
   Those who think is was a waste of video hire money go away, get married, have kids, then come back to it. You'll see.

   If this is the worst final half hour of any movie you've ever seen, then you need to watch more films. Admitedly the ending is not as good as the body of the film, but there is much, much worse out there, believe me.

   It's hugely condescending to suggest that if someone doesn't have kids they won't understand this. We all have parents and understand the relationship. If that were all with this film it would have been a great film. The first hour was hugely interesting, exploring grief and the parent-child relationship, etc. But then it suddenly turned into a different and wholly unbelievable film, but I could have handled that, the whole running away from the authorities bit. It was that awful fairy tale last half hour or so which killed the film dead. It was the worst ending in cinema history. It had no relationship to the rest of the film, some weird highly evolved race of robots suddently finding the little boy, blah blah. It was a sad and pathetic attempt to tie the theme at the beginning to the end of the film as they'd gone so far off track in the middle. It was, essentially three films, the first one good, but not taken to its full possibilities, the second a vaguely engaging piece of Hollywood sci-fi celluloid and the third an absolute shocker of a turkey, ruining any goodwill left over from the first hour.
   
   A.I. is an appalling piece of cinema. And the worst bit is, you can so blatantly tell where Kubrick left off and Speilberg began, because only Speilberg is capable of producing that sort of unwatchable, over-sentimental garbage.

   The film is based on 3 linked short stories by Brian Aldiss. Supertoys Last All Summer Long, Supertoys When Winter Comes, and Supertoys In Other Seasons. The final part of the film has no link to the stories whatsoever. It's as if he tried to tack a swatch of Close Encounters onto the fabric of the film. It is no wonder Aldiss distanced himself from the final product.
   The movie is still entertaining and watchable. But without the unnecessary flights of fancy, it could have been so much more.
