Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970)
AI before there was AI
A remarkable movie for it's time, but very pertinent today. This film could be considered the precursor to "The Terminator". The special effects are a bit jaded, but the advanced computer knows it's boundaries. The inventor of "Colossus" is under constant surveillance, by his invention, so he doesn't try to pull a fast one and disconnect the power source. But when the protagonist is in bed with his lover, Colossus turns off the camera. The rest of the actors do a stand up job and play their parts to the hilt. Today, the dialogue might get a few laughs, but only because us movie goers are much more sophisticated!
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (2017)
WOW!!!
What a refreshing and well written satirical-like comedy. Whomever did the casting should get an Emmy! But Tony Shaloub, of Lebanese descent, playing the part of an atheistic leaning Jew is superb!!
Chosen (2022)
Slow Paced Scandinavian Sci-Fi
This series had some moments of intrigued, but, nonetheless, it is one if those series where you can fall asleep during part of an episode and when you wake up you didn't miss much!!!
Clickbait (2021)
Even Sherlock Holmes would be Stymied
It is a very enjoyable series, well acted and directed. But it seems the writers were intent to devise the most implausible conclusion.
