Review of Extinction (2018) by Mad M — 27 Jul 2018
This movie explored so many interesting things I think that appeals to our own humanity. This movie made me question our humanity as well. As robots these beings develop emotion, they are moral, emotional, and logical beings that at many points made me think, "wow these synthetics are more human than humans themselves.".
Then I realized are they really more human than we are? are they human at all or better? Humans find ways to act unjustifiably on fear, anger and sorrow. It is humanity that is so threaten by their own creation they begin a war. Yes war, we love it so much we created beings that look like us to have more of it. Humans start and continue the war leading more loss and sorrow but they choose to continue, Where the synths only want to live and survive acting defensively.
It is a robotic child that reminds the human "invader" when he was faced with killing her what it really means to be human.
This is an amazing movie. in terms of execution I think it was done well, not perfectly. I believe people just did not have patience and are not easily entertained with very little action scenes in the first two acts.
The acting was amazing and was slow and seemingly emotionless at some points because they are synths.
