AIMEE: The Visitor

Trailer—AIMEE: The Visitor

And the new movie making fad is ... AI! Everyone is jumping on the AI bandwagon now because it is mysterious so they can write a script about almost anything, including a robotic coffee pot controlling a space fleet (no, not in this one, don't worry). This movie was not bad it, was okay. A bit over an hour of popcorn entertainment, resting one's mind, letting it flow. The nudity was very good, the participants had great figures. (I'm calling spoiler alert because I mention naked ladies). Films like this aren't shooting for Oscars, the producers and other involved staff know what they are doing and thankfully they do not "overdo" it. They're giving it a shot with what they got. Actors wish to be noticed, directors, etc. Plot, to wit: Super hackers unlock an AI program in the form of a (woo-woo hot!) woman who herself (itself) hacks the program for all it is worth. It takes over the antagonist's computer world and seeks to ruin him. He is smitten, then heartbroken, but he finally pulls himself together and fights back. You will find yourself rooting for this guy. Acting was so-so, not bad, and I give it a plus because the cast knew better than to get histrionic with their little speeches. I give the director an attaboy for containing that behavior also. How often are we "treated" to an actor shaking his fist at the sky and saying "Then I will be in control!" Good on ya kids. Giving it a 6+.

This is barely a movie honestly, because its length is only 69 minutes. It moves quick because it has to, it has sub par acting, you can clearly see the actors doing their work, simply acting, but not at the proper level, the lack of experience is easily noticeble. It has a good feel about it, even tho clearly not an original movie, AIMEE smells freshly baked with a good taste overall. But as said before, I couldn't really take it seriously at that length so I just rolled with it and tried to enjoy it. Is this recommandable? Well, if you're a fan of The Outer Limits or The Twilight Zone, I'm sure nostalgia with kick in and will make for a plesant view. If you decide not to watch it, I can't say you'll miss much. It's a cute little movie that I think deserves a one time watch, because the people involved here really tried. Overall I honestly think those 69 minutes of movie worked for it, because instead of over stretching, it stuck to what it had to show, in the most entertaining way possible without boring the viewer. Cheers!

OK, so I thought that perhaps this film would be reminiscent of some of those campy-technology based sci-fi films of the 80s & 90s, i.e., Johnny Mnemonic, Hackers, War Games, The Thirteenth Floor, to name a few. You know, those movies that were based on technology of the era that may have been decent movies at the time but are completely obsolete now and almost comical to watch. This movie does not have to wait 30 years to be comical to watch. I could see this movie getting a B+ as a student film for a course at a Poughkeepsie, New York community college called "You can make movies too." The only thing I liked about this movie was that the girl who played Gazelle was kind of cute. She had a rather Halston Sage kind a look. But unfortunately, her acting, although at times somewhat convincing, mostly missed the mark, as did the other actors' performances. I thought perhaps two of her 30 or so "What the f's?" were actually believable. The scene where the two "FBI agents," (whose appearance in the film was completely irrelevant), were electrocuted, was reminiscent of Star Trek TOS 1966 special effects. Ironically, the best actor in the cast was the artificial intelligence that played the character called AIMEE. Here's the good news: if somebody forces you to watch this movie, it's only 69 minutes long!
