Our take on A.I. Artificial Intelligence

Steven Spielberg's 2001 science-fiction drama centres on David, a robotic boy—the first programmed to love—adopted as a test case by a Cybertronics employee and his wife. As David gradually becomes their child, a chain of unexpected events makes that family life impossible, setting him on a search shaped by his single, unbending need to be loved. Spielberg blends fairy-tale yearning with cool speculative unease, using David's plight to probe what feeling and belonging really mean when they're engineered. It suits viewers open to a strange, melancholy odyssey that keeps ideas and emotion in constant tension. Ambitious, haunting and deliberately unsettling in its questions about love and personhood.
