When I thought about watching AI again, I was in my twenties, and I also realized that Harry Joel Osment, who played David, was a year older than me, but David still touched me. This is my first time writing a movie review, and I will continue to write it in the future, because I always feel that I need to do something for a movie. I don't have the ability to make a movie, so I can only enjoy the movie. Steven Spielberg is one of the directors I admire the most, and he made and many of the incredible films of his time that I am envious of.
Many times, after watching a movie, I will feel more or less in my heart. Maybe it is not the resonance brought by the film, but it is my most real feeling. I like to watch movies and I like to read movie reviews. But often after reading other people's film reviews, I lose my original feelings about the film. Just like "AI", the praise it has received is obvious to all, but some people think it is not very good. It is inevitable that each watcher has a different quality, education, experience, and position, and everyone's perspective on watching the film is also different, so I can no longer follow the crowd, I want to be myself.
Okay, that seems like a lot of nonsense, I may never know what Steven Spielberg is really trying to express, the little robot wants to become a human, wants to be loved by a human mother, and is trapped in the abyss. Thousands of years later, robots have survived the victory over nature, and then began to look for traces of humans. I can't decipher many things, I just let my own conclusions: Life is beautiful because it has an end. Recalling the BBC documentary "Travel in the Human Body", I look forward to the final demise of life. Everything started silently, and then slowly disappeared. The meaning of life seems to lie only in the journey, not in the beginning and the end.
When David sees his mother being awakened by a more advanced robot, I think the film should end here, she only has one day to live, as we all know. But let us see the cruel ending, David's mother disappeared again. Maybe the robot can wake her up countless times, but David doesn't need it anymore.
Only things that have an end are meaningful, only life that has an end should be cherished, and only love that has an end is worth protecting.
