Artificial intelligence is a hot topic with significant consequences for our society on many levels. Initially, the depiction of AI by Jennifer Lopez's character (whose talent I acknowledge) seemed somewhat naive, as science fiction writers have explored the subject in much greater depth. However, I had to stop watching the movie after an hour due to the constant screaming, which I found unbearable (despite recognizing Lopez's talent). Additionally, the CGI and set design were not impressive in my opinion. The silver lining is that I watched it on Netflix, so I didn't have to pay for a ticket. Although it's currently number one on the platform in France, I can only give it four stars, considering the budget spent.

"De Guerre Lasse" tries to be a gripping war drama but falls flat on almost every front. From its uninspired storytelling to its lackluster performances, this film struggles to engage its audience from start to finish.

The plot feels like a recycled mishmash of tired police movie stories, offering nothing new or innovative to the genre. "De Guerre Lasse" resorts to clichés and predictable plot twists that fail to evoke any emotional response.

The performances are equally lackluster, with wooden delivery and little chemistry between the actors. Jalil Lespert is definitely a wrong choice in this genre of movie.

I recently had the misfortune of watching "Gemini Man," and I must say it was an utterly disappointing and regrettable experience. This movie is a prime example of everything that can go wrong in the world of cinema.

First and foremost, the plot was an absolute mess. It was convoluted and incoherent, making it nearly impossible to follow. The story jumped around so much that I had a hard time keeping track of the characters' motivations and the overall narrative. It felt like the script was patched together from various unrelated ideas, leaving me utterly perplexed and unsatisfied.

The characters in "Gemini Man" were one-dimensional at best and completely unrelatable. I couldn't find a single character to root for or connect with throughout the film. Their actions and decisions often made no sense, and their development was non-existent. I couldn't care less about their fates, which is a death knell for any movie.

The acting was equally uninspiring. The performances felt forced and lacked depth. It was evident that the actors were struggling with the poorly written dialogue and the lackluster direction. The chemistry between the lead characters, who were supposed to be at the heart of the story, was non-existent, leaving the audience without any emotional investment in their relationship. Trying to make more money for your family is nice, but at least bring someone who has talent.

Furthermore, the production values in "Gemini Man" were abysmal. The cinematography was lackluster, and the special effects were laughably bad. It felt like the film had a shoestring budget, and it showed in every frame. The lack of attention to detail was painfully apparent, further detracting from any potential enjoyment.

The pacing of the movie was excruciatingly slow, with long, drawn-out scenes that added nothing to the overall plot. I found myself constantly checking my watch, hoping for something, anything, to happen that would redeem this cinematic disaster.

In conclusion, "Gemini Mam" is a prime example of how not to make a movie. It is a disjointed, poorly acted, and visually unimpressive mess that left me feeling like I had wasted my time and money. I would strongly advise anyone to steer clear of this film unless they enjoy the torture of sitting through a two-hour trainwreck of a movie.
