My only other complaint is that the "feel-good" ending felt rather tacked on. Some of the film is intensely moving thanks to the remarkable and eerie score from John Williams, however there are some parts of the in-general well written screenplay that are close to over-sentimental. That teddy bear, voiced by Jack Angel, is really rather cute. There is terrific support also from Brendan Gleeson and Robin Williams (as the voice of Dr Know). Many complained of the character of Monica, personally I had no problem with her and Frances O'Connor makes the most of what she is given. Haley Joel Osment proves that he is a fine child actor in a truly astonishing lead performance, and Jude Law in one of his better performance matches him perfectly as his protector. The direction is very refined, and while reminiscent of Pinocchio the story driving this film is resolutely dark, ambitious and even daring. For one thing it is beautifully filmed the cinematography was gorgeous and the special effects were absolutely jaw dropping. And I do think it is one of his better movies along with Schindler's List, ET and Jaws. Artificial Intelligence:AI is a very captivating and astonishing achievement from Steven Spielburg. I was not kidding when I wrote that summary. Reviewed by TheLittleSongbird 8 / 10 Can I be honest? I think this is one of Spielburg's better movies
David is living happily with Monica and her husband, but when their real son returns home after a cure is discovered, his life changes dramatically. Monica is the woman who adopted him as a substitute for her real son, who remains in cryo-stasis, stricken by an incurable disease.
One of the mecha-producing companies builds David, an artificial kid which is the first to have real feelings, especially a never-ending love for his "mother", Monica. Withdrawn to the interior of the continents, the human race keeps advancing, reaching the point of creating realistic robots (called mechas) to serve them. In the not-so-far future the polar ice caps have melted and the resulting rise of the ocean waters has drowned all the coastal cities of the world.
