答案

I saw A.I.on the first night it ran here and I must say I was disappointed in the size of the audience.How strange to see so few people show up for a Spielberg film.This film did not enjoy the normal hype that most of Spielberg's films enjoy,I think I know why.Lack of product placement.They're may have been some somewhere but I didn't see them.A.I.'s story line and flawless visual effects reflect what I can only describe as the meeting of two great film makers.Kubrick (who started work on the project after he read the Aldiss book in '83),and Steven Spielberg who's long list of intelligent blockbusters made him the perfect person to bring this story to the screen.I could,I believe see the story boards and concepts Kubrick developed and I could also see the sensitivity that Spielberg added to scenes and characters.These two things are not entirely separate in good Science Fiction.All good science fiction has some human sensitivity in it otherwise it would just be a horror film.The script reflects some of the darkness and coldness that sometimes underlies each character human and machine,there is no fear of this in the story.This darkness draws us on in the story.
The visual effects are stunning and come darn close to genius.The story line takes us in and the visuals make it almost real.
A.I.Is a good union of two great film makers.,1 July 2001
Author:John R.Armstrong ([e-mail]) from Chicago
I wish I had Mr.Mannings grip of syntax,but all in all at the end of the day it's good science fiction and a good story too.I beleve that Stanley Kubrick's choice of asking Steven Spielberg to make this film was the kind of genius that Kubrick showed in all his work.It is a tribute to both men that they saw a vision of something and worked toward it's creation.I think they came to a great place in film making.
Future classic...,26 September 2001
Author:Chris Harrison ([e-mail]) from Wiltshire,England
First of all,once again I think the critics have got it wrong.Like Blade Runner and 2001,this is a film that will be properly judged in 10/20 years or maybe more.Its way ahead of its time,the combination of Kubrick and Spielberg is unique,its unlikely we will ever see anything like this again.
Did I like it?The answer would have to be yes,the mix of styles will put many people off,but I found it to be unlike anything I have ever seen,and all the better for it.The story is by no means original but everything else about the film is so different that this can be forgiven.To get one thing straight,Kubrick decided Spielberg would be the better man for directing it,and I think this was a very wise decision,many of the ideas are pure Kubrick,but Spielberg has the neccassary attributes to direct such a film,and great credit has to go to Kubrick for handing it to him.
Haley Joel Osment is amazing,the robot/human emotion must be amazingly difficult to pull off effectively,but Osment does it with such relative ease to the point where you do believe he is a robot,not that he is just acting as a robot.Jude Law is excellent,and so to is Frances O'Conner.
As for the ending,as brave as an idea it may of been to end on a downbeat note at "the first ending" I think the slightly upbeat ending is much more appropriate.
All in all I would say A.I is a wonderfully unique film that should be judged for what it is,a film.Forget everything about the Spielberg/Kubrick "issue" and just sit back and take in a truely amazing film.You may hate it,you may love it,but no matter what,it will effect your emotions in some way and you will discuss the film afterwards.
This film will be truely judged in 20 years or so,when it can be assessed purely as a film,as with 'Blade Runner','2001',and even 'The Thing',it will get better with age.
A.I.--A Film With Heart And Brains,6 July 2001
Author:virek213 from San Gabriel,Ca.,USA
Steven Spielberg's latest movie A.I.:ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE,which he took up at the encouragement of the late,great Stanley Kubrick,has caused widely divergent comments.And I can't help wondering if the most scathingly negative reviews of this movie aren't just an open desire to see Spielberg crash,as he had with "1941" and HOOK.
For my money,Spielberg has done it again with this futuristic science fiction drama,regardless of what the negative reviews say.Its story of a robot boy (Haley Joel Osment) who desires to be a real boy in a far future in which humans (Orgas) and machines (Mechas) exist side-by-side but not always in harmony is very much modeled on the Pinocchio story,though it is actually based on a 1969 short story by Brian Aldiss.It raises some interesting and sometimes unsettling moral dilemmas that few films of late have done.Can a parent love a child,even if that child is not real?What might happen if that child desired to be real?How will Man and Machine be able to co-exist?
Like all intelligent science fiction,such as Kubrick's own 2001:A SPACE ODYSSEY and Spielberg's own CLOSE ENCOUNTERS,A.I.forces us to ponder where we've been and where we might be going.It's an incredible combination of Kubrick's icy intellectual and clinical mind and Spielberg's emotional heart; and I think it works exceedingly well.But it forces the viewer to not leave their heart and brains at the door,which I think is why it is being so negatively received in this season of mindless summer movie fare.It may be too intelligent for its own good,and many don't have the 145 minutes of patience needed for the movie.I did,however; and I would call this an absolute masterpiece.Out of ten stars,give this one a 10.
A mind-blowing movie that will grow in stature,6 March 2002
Wow!That was all I could say when I walked out of the theatre after my first helping of A.I.I wasn't sure whether I loved the movie or was disappointed by it,I just knew it had had a huge effect on me.Having seen it a further three times at the cinema,I still find fault with it,but I keep returning to it,thinking about it,discussing it,and it has left me with a feeling that,five months later,I've still not shaked.In many regards,this movie reminds me of Fight Club,not in terms of theme or emotional content,but due to it's level of craft,the daring nature of it's execution and the fact that I keep re-evaluating it.All the things that are possible to comment objectively on (if anything ever is) are handled expertly.The performances are top-notch,especially Haley Joel Osment as David,the little robot child that longs to be human.The effects are not only very impressive,but are integrated into the story rather than calling attention to themselves.Januz Kaminski's photography is,as one has come to expect,impressive,and the movie is unusually unpredictable for such a big-budget experience.
In my opinion,John Williams' score is among his most impressive.I listened to it on CD for three weeks before seeing the movie,and thought it was fantastic,but once the movie started rolling I completely forgot about the music.That says a lot about both the score and the film itself.I also liked the three-act structure,in which the tone and feel of the movie changes drastically as the story progresses.Part one,as one reviewer noted,feels like a cross between E.T.and The Shining,an odd,but very effective combination.The second part of the movie is awash with Spielbergian imagery,but with the darkness and coldness of a Kubrick movie.And the last part is a head-scratcher that has the intellectual resonance of most Kubrick-films,and the emotional tone of something like Cinema Paradiso.I purposely refrain from saying that it is as emotional as Spielberg-films,because I think the director's complexities,the dark aspects of his style,and the occasional subtleties of his work are often overlooked by critics.
It's difficult to discuss the themes of the movie without spoiling it,but while many people criticised the movie from having several false endings,I felt that each continuation added layers of though and complexities that the movie would have lacked had it ended sooner.I have come to the conclusion,over the past months,that I do love the movie and that it is my favourite film of 2001,even ahead of The Fellowship of The Ring and Amelie.In other words,buy it on DVD,it's more than worth it.
