Wow, you can really tell a pandemic is going on with films nowadays. This was just relentlessly depressing. That's "okay" in film, but not if there's no other point to it. Please tell me, anyone, why did film exist other than to watch Chloe Grace Moretz cry a lot?
First of all, the title of the film was a miss. Could they just not think of anything else? Second, as is often the case in films of this type, there is little explanation as to "why" it's all happening. "Androids don't like people anymore." Got it.
But the real problem with this film was the pacing. The glacial, quicksand pacing. There were about 5 endings to this film, each a long shot of people just staring. The climax of the action happens with 15 minutes left, so we literally get 15 minutes of Chloe staring into the distance wondering what her kid's life would have been like. It's the entire end of the film, what were they thinking?!
Awful script, awful writing. What a waste!
