Ambitiously intriguing? Yup. Absolutely insightful? Sure. 
Almost intolerable? Yes. Originally developed by the 
late Stanley Kubrick and directed by Steven Spielberg, 
A.I. is one of those event films with heavy acting, 
seamless special effects and a story so big it'll
have critic-types arguing about it 2000 years into
the future. Basically a futuristic fairy tale of robo-boy 
Haley Joel Osment who just wants to be loved,
the epic touches on the relationship between man
and machine, love and family--but it's probably 
not for kids who'll be bored at its lengthy running time 
and freaked out by its robot torture scenes. Interesting
to look at and more interesting to talk about later, 
it's also just plain boring at times
(mainly during its slow beginning and its groaning 
turn at the end). Slyly stealing the show are 
Jude Law as sex-bot Gigolo Joe (make a film of his 
story) and Osment's adorable talking
Teddy Ruxpin-of-the-future bear toy.
