The Creator

The Creator is a visually lush, well performed, futuristic drama wrapped around a lovey story.

I liked aspects of it, mostly the visuals... It's just too bad the story was derivative and seemed to crib from so many other sci-fi epics.

The main question about "The Creator" is: How has a movie this good and this big arrived in theaters with so little fanfare?

Writer-director Gareth Edwards and his collaborator, Chris Weitz, have crafted a script which tries so hard to cover all the ethical dilemmas posed by the rise of artificial intelligence that I’m not sure what it’s meant to be saying.

An atomic level of schmaltz. If you watch The Creator and end up wondering what on earth it is about, you will not be alone.

The Creator is sleek, but thoughtfully so. It’s impressive, but humble. The film is, to risk hyperbole, a true vision, a filmmaker reasserting their unique talent for spectacle.

A tantalizing beautiful cinematic display that takes a different approach and stance to the kinship of AI. John David Washington gives a solid performance as Joshua and has a strong connection with Voyles as Alfie who makes a very impressive film debut.

A proper “cinema” film with effects that feel grounded and a big human heart.

An ambitious, timely Sci-Fi epic that packs a punch&#59; a visually stunning triumph that captivates the audience throughout.

The Creator stands on its own through the fantastic performances of its cast, the beautiful cinematography and Edwards’ clear understanding of what makes for an engrossing science-fiction epic.
