This is legit the movie I shit on most. I hate it so very much. It's not the plot exactly, it's two things:

  • The tech accuracy is so bad. I won't go into everything but they go out of their way to say shit that doesn't make sense. My favorite example is that the AI is just a big floating orb and they feed it data through infrared, the slowest communication method available. Like they didn't have to say infrared, they chose that.

  • The product placement. Again, a lot of examples but my favorite is how at the end he shows up with Guitar Hero and the kids are like "Yay Guitar Hero that's the best game ever."
