If this had been made 30 years ago it would have blown people away, fact.
The ethical questions raised about the use of automated warfare are pretty relevant at the moment as several world powers race to produce robot armies, air forces and naval power. Not to cut casualties, but to make the fighting 'more efficient'. Who doesn't want a robot that never sleeps and kills without hesitation?
The ultimate goal of 'The Bad Guy' is to make humanity question its use of robots in war, and maybe not do it anymore? But of course the humans win, how could they not? This is a film made by humans.
Liberally dosed with some outstanding shootee action, many life or death situations, and several twists to keep you guessing, this was like an ethics lecture performed via a PS4 session playing 'Modern Warfare'.
Highly recommended for anyone with a brain or love of action films. Arms designers and generals should be prevented from watching this, they'll only get bad ideas.
