Imagine that Stanley Kubrick had a baby before he died and Steven Spielberg raised it as one of his own. It would be the strangest, yet most special kid you had ever seen. Well, that's sort of what you get from Spielberg's newest film, "A.I."(Artificial Intelligence), based on an idea that Kubrick never got to finish before he died. The result is a very bizarre, long, and paranoid movie (thanks Stanley!), yet it has those E.T./Close Encounters magic moments (thanks Steven!). Shrouded in secrecy, the plot goes something like this: Somewhere in the middle of the 21st century, a prototype of a perfect human boy is created and tested out on a family whose son had been in a terrible accident. This "11-year-old boy" named David (Haley Joel Osment), is a cute little kid, who has all of the features of a regular kid, including his feelings, but he is still a robot. David fills the void to an extent until the parents' boy recovers and comes back into the picture. He then learns about hate, jealousy, and the darker side of human emotion. He is finally dropped off near the facility where he was made and befriends other, less-developed robots, including a gigolo robot named Joe (Jude Law), where he begins a Pinocchio-inspired quest to find the "blue fairy" that will make him a real boy so his Mom will love him again. He encounters a few near-death experiences, friendly and unfriendly humans and robots, and even aliens! If Kubrick made this movie, it would've been much longer and probably almost unbearably boring. It seemed in a test screening that most people were getting restless, especially the kids. This leads you to wonder: "Who is this movie for?" Kids will be bored to tears, teens will want more action, and Kubrick and Spielberg fans will be divided. Most likely, there will be a love/hate reaction to this movie. The oil and water mix of the cute/freaky characters and plot twists will turn a lot of people off. Personally, I found it to be a pretty interesting movie that could've just used a little editing. Leave the kids at home and take a little trip into a Twilight Zone-worthy world that only these two great directors could create.
