Movie Reviews

Decent one actor movie, but had two ideas the entire length

This film should have been called Writer Blocked and be an episode of an anthology like Outer Limits or Twilight Zone. Then the fact that it only had two ideas the entire length would have made sense and the titles should have been funny. I have no problem with the actors, direction or production values. It was just stretched too much to fill a feature film (much like the lead character should have done).

I can't even mention details of the plot because I can't avoid spoiling those two basic premises of the story. Given that it is either one of those Covid-made films or another thing inspired by Moon, the entire cast is one actress and four supporting roles. It really is barebones.

Bottom line: it might be entertaining if you are doing something else at the same time. Otherwise it drags a little too long.

Perhaps you should lie down

In the near future, Claire Rivers (Rachel Shelley) is a major fiction writer who is on a schedule and has drawn a blank while her agent and publisher are after her to complete her novel which she hasn't started. She goes to retreat run by AI that specializes in helping writers overcome their writing block. She is greeted by a hologram (Wayne Brady) which links her to the home office to make sure she has what she needs. She also has an AI android named Rita (Heida Reed) who is programmed to help her in whatever way possible. A Code Red Worm enters the system disrupting communication and making Rita resort to her basic functions and she reboots every night thinking every day is the first. In doing so Rita will not let Claire out of the house until her project is finished. Claire suddenly writes about her childhood and in part ties into what is happening with her current situation as food supplies run low.

I always love a good story of AI gone bad whether it is HAL, Westworld, or even I, Robot. This one is a two person play done fairly decent as Claire increases her efforts with each passing day.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Like a Twilight Zone episode but padded out

We've seen it all before. The AI traps a woman in the house thing. We saw it in The Demon Seed and Vau and a few others as well. In this version of that story they intertwine it with a story of maternal abuse and imprisonment of the the protagonist in childhood.

It's an OK film, but that's all. The acting and production values are ok but the action feels padded out and I got rather bored about halfway through.

Maybe with a bigger budget and better directing talent it could have been something instead of the bloated short story it is.

Stop reading now. Ian padding this review out because I have to write six hundred words.
