Two artificial intelligence engineers come together as they work to create the first ever self-aware artificial intelligence. A veteran AI engineer secretly hopes to develop technology to help his diseased daughter, even if it means funding comes from the powerful Ministry of Defence (MoD). His new partner, a young woman gifted in the field of AI, is brought on after her breakthroughs are recognized by the MoD. Things go wrong when the MoD takes over and advances the researchers' work to the next level, teaching the AI to kill and follow MoD instructions with its new and nearly indestructible body.
Leave your thoughts about The Machine.
| VarietyDennis HarveyCloser to “Her” in its musing on human/machine connectivity, while also incorporating the dystopian and action-thriller aspects of “Blade Runner” and its ilk, albeit on a much smaller scale, the pic will divide fantasy fans, some of whom will give it props for breaking somewhat from genre formula, while others will be disappointed by the largely budgetary limits of its imagination. |
| Sky CinemaElliott NobleA B-movie of considerable ambition and substance. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA low-budget sci-fi thriller with worthwhile questions about the relationship between human beings and super-intelligent robots. |
| Fat Guys at the MoviesKevin Carran ambitious project that has a slick production design and solid special effects |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfMachine retains a dynamic presence, with interesting futureworld ideas sharply realized by writer/director Caradog W. James, who submits quite a cinematic vision for next to no production money. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleEven with a cut-and-dried approach to characterization and the issue of man-made consciousness, The Machine percolates with an elegantly palpable sense of wonder and danger. |
| Film ThrillsDeirdre CrimminsThe Machinedeftly handles humor and action in good balance. With the excellent script the spectacular sets and retro synthesizer score make it a fun science fiction film. |
| Sci-Fi Movie PageJames O'EhleySome movies you find yourself liking despite of their mistakes, and this 2013 movie filmed in Wales is one of those movies. |
| The PlaylistGabe ToroWhen Lotz is not onscreen, Stephens is miserable company. But James does reveal a deep fascination with the robotics that suggests the threadbare story was a chance for him to explore the very real advances in artificial intelligence. |
| Time OutAnna SmithThe characters could use more depth – Vincent’s backstory is told too swiftly, and his bonding with Ava is brief. But it’s still a smart, thought-provoking little thriller with strong central performances. |
