A.I. Assault

Directed by Jim Wynorski1h 34m2006

When a plane carrying a pair of top secret military robots crashes on a deserted Pacific island, a team of Navy seals must find them and turn them off as soon as possible for the longer they are activated, the smarter they become.

Our read: A.I. Assault (2006) reads as a sombre, breathless, inventive thriller · sci-fi · robot entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
