A.I. - Artificial Intelligence? The worst movie ever made?

I found it a decent movie until the part Spielberg obvious takes over after Kubricks kicks the bucket.

The ending of the movie is SO ponderous, it ruined the whole thing for me.

But to each his own

That was the part I found most interesting. SS was trying to do Kubrick, but couldn't completely because, after all, he's SS. I thought it one of the most unusuall movie making attemps I'd seen in over 40 years of watching movies. It's what I look for anymore, something different. And different it was. I quess that's why I liked it so much.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane and Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn - world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed it off an aux speak, grunt, no, strength, Ladder start to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped. Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right, right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.


Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down. Watch your heel crush, crushed, uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament, tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.


The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine...fine...

The ending of A.I. to me was:

"Close Encounters of Third Kind" redone year 250,000 A.D.

To me it was very weak and bizarre ending to a very interesting story line

The ending was definately the weak part of the movie. It could have ended a couple of places, and it was almost as if Speilberg couldn't decide which ending to use, so he used them all.
