Took my 17 year old son to see this one last night. The concept of a thinking/learning computer flying a fighter jet is interesting, but I honestly felt that the conclusions this computer drew from its observations were a bit wacky. Many great aireal shots and lots of air-to-air combat. I didn't really like the ending, but I won't spoil it for anyone who has not seen it. Overall I enjoyed it, but probably won't buy the DvD to add to my collection.

I saw it and regretted the money spent. This is one of those flicks that would be good on late-night HBO when you have nothing better to do, but the story and characters were not fully fleshed out in any particular. It moves fast.. a bit oo fast for my tastes.

The special effects were first rate, but again they moved by too fast and the suspension of disbelief called for just a tad too far a stretch to make any immersion into the flick possible. Example: Releasing a bomb externally from a plane going 2,000 mph is just waaayyy too far out there for me.

The basics were there for a very good story and movie, but the money men must have closed the purse strings and hurried production.






Lord, help me to be the person my psychiatrist medicates me to be.
