The movie is weird. In this alternate reality with lots of humanoid robots in certain parts of the world, the people around them still live either in backward environments like those Vietnam War era Asian villages, or in futuristic looking modern cities, but all have no meaningful method to protect themselves against a small expedition force from a foreign country. Even the robots are not as intelligent as we think they should be. They are more like a partially mechanized human with limited abilities in every way including no large scale industry capacities, no interconnected communication, no super speed or accuracy, or even no basic weapons like RPGs or MANPADS besides some light weapons. Some robots are also religious like many primitive humans do. For AIs built based on logic, science and reasoning? That's just ridiculous! Of course something similar may happen in the real world such as an ox pulling the rusted body of a beat-up car in some remote villages. But that's never normal or common. All in all, the storyline of the movie is very lacking in realistic or scientific prediction of a future world where humans and AIs coexist, or at war with each other If our offspring choose to be stupid, stubborn and violent as many narrow-minded humans in the movie or in real life.
I usually enjoy movies on legal battles. But just like some other reviews said, the whole case's arguments and the final court ruling simply don't make much sense. Instead of focusing on basic legal principles, this case was jumping around on unrelated issues such as projected racism, emotions, even including dragging a certain person's grandfather's role in the history into the scenario. This drama goes very far from what a proper legal system should look like. The more ridiculous thing is that this movie is actually based on a true court case. I guess the only reasonable conclusion one can make from this movie is that businesses should avoid huge unpredictable risks by staying away from certain areas where laws and courts are not run based on legal principles but emotions and all sorts of strange things.
I really don't know what I should call this TV series. It looks like a cooking or cuisine show, but the main character is very clumsy and even clueless in his kitchen. That is probably fine as some of us are sometimes like that as well. However, the main drawback that makes the whole show pointless is that almost all the dishes he introduced are complicated ones with lots of ingredients and procedures which are not feasible in this modern busy life for many. It can be fun at certain moments, but then again those moments are few and far between. I'd rather watch a comedy if that's what I want. Basically it will be a waste of time because you won't learn anything practical in your cooking from this show.
