Alien at the Movies

Archive

In 2038, a roboticist, George (Theo James), is working alone at an abandoned research facility located in a remote forested area. Grieving over the loss of his wife, he is obsessed with developing & perfecting an artificial intelligent unit into which he can download his wife’s consciousness. After her death, her essence was stored in an archive, but just for a limited period. Plagued by power failures & paranoid by possible security breaches, he is secretly hiding his progress in fear that higher ups will intervene & disrupt his work before completion. I️ liked the evolution of his 3 A.I. units but they triggered my Frankenstein alarm sensors. Just as I️ was expecting the villagers to storm the castle, I️ got surprised. Can you recover life after death?

Alien gives it 3 “sibling rivalry & jealousy” stars out of 4.
