The title of the film "The Machine Butler" feels very relaxed, but I didn't expect it to be a long bicentennial life, like an epic.
Although the plot setting is too old-fashioned, why should a robot with artificial intelligence and emotion struggle to become a real person? During the period, I felt that the plot could seamlessly connect with the Terminator. Only later did he realize that it was love and emotion, and the complete human senses, that made him obsessed with being human. This is the praise of life. It is a pity that he gave up his eternal life in order to become a man, and people can carry on certain inheritance through reproduction and genes, just like the second lady and her granddaughter Borsa. However, his experience and excellent qualities cannot be inherited like humans.
Bathed in warmth for two hours, I read it with a smile almost all the time. A robot with a soul that has been pursuing for two hundred years is exactly what we have at birth. As I remembered the ending song, I couldn't help thinking about the meaning of life again...
Robin Williams did a very good job of playing the state of Andrew at every stage and the changes it produced. Sam Neill played the male protagonist is also very brilliant, elegant, graceful, wise. The second lady and Borsa are also good, very real and cute.
The Chinese translation of the title "Machine Butler" is too cheap, and it is not as good as the literal translation - the bicentennial person.
