COMBO: Pinocchio, 2001, and Super Mario Brothers...
3 October 2002
Wow. What a mess. Poor Haley Joel Osment; he deserves MUCH better than this. It could've been a wonderful movie; it had a great concept. But no; Mr. Spielberg was more concerned with turning the lovely story about a robot boy who wanted to be real - into an overdone carnival. When Mr. Spielberg made "The Contender", 2 years ago, he absolutely BULLIED the genius actor, Gary Oldman, because of some political disagreement...it was THEN that I realized that Mr. Spielberg sold OUT his love of art, for politics. "Artificial Intelligence" is another example of Spielberg's selling out. I have absolutely NO idea what he had in mind, when he went over the top with this story. This movie is an absolute fiasco, a flop. Don't waste your time. If you want to see this kind of special effects, and not have a care about characters and story-line, buy a video-game. Mr. Spielberg? Get a GRIP.
