What kind of watch this is
Steven Spielberg directs this 146-minute drama, which asks a question that feels uncomfortable because the answer is obvious. David is a robot boy programmed to love, and he loves with the same stubborn, unyielding intensity as any child. The film does not care about the technology. It cares about what happens when the machine breaks and the human heart refuses to follow. Jude Law plays Gigolo Joe, an unlikely companion, adding a layer of absurdity to the grief. It is a story about fidelity, not to a person, but to an idea of what a person is. The ending will haunt you long after the credits roll.
What the critics said
The reception is polite, if not exactly rapturous. Rotten Tomatoes sits at 76% approval as of August 2024, with an average score of 6.6 out of 10. Metacritic lands on 65 out of 100 as of July 2023, a number that signals generally favorable reviews. Audiences were less impressed, giving it a C+ on CinemaScore. Roger Ebert called it "wonderful and maddening." Critics note the blend of Kubrick’s chill and Spielberg’s warmth. It is fascinating, though perhaps not seamless.
How it did with audiences
A $100 million budget yielded $236 million in worldwide box office, a margin that likely kept the studio’s accountants calm. In the United States, it pulled in $79 million. On TMDB, users give it a 7.1 score, a respectable nod from those who watched it.
What came next for the cast
Haley Joel Osment moved from The Sixth Sense to Tusk. Jude Law went from The Talented Mr. Ripley to Captain Marvel. Frances O'Connor stepped into The Conjuring universe. The credits list these shifts. They do not explain them. A.I. sits in the middle of a timeline, not at the start of a cause-and-effect chain.
