回复 :科学家阿尔玛在柏林著名的佩加蒙博物馆工作。为了获得研究经费，她同意参加一个不同寻常的实验。在三周的时间里，她要和一个人形机器人汤姆生活在一起，这个人工智能被设计成她理想的生活伴侣。机器以英俊的人形设计，是为她的快乐而造的。接下来是一个悲剧故事，探讨了爱、渴望和人类的概念。导演玛丽亚·施拉德曾获得银熊演员奖，同时也是一位出色的电影导演，她改编了Emma Braslavsky的故事，并为其注入了电影的暗示力量。她展现了对表演化学反应的深刻理解，她恰到好处地挑选并指导了一对主角，他们是有趣而不自然的、失败的一对。但是，还有什么比研究分析和感觉之间的颤动更有成效的呢？毕竟，诗歌也能用到左脑逻辑。
回复 :Eric Braeden stars as Dr. Charles Forbin, who has created a supercomputer named Colossus, built solely for the purpose of controlling the nuclear defenses of the Western alliance. It isn't too long after, however, that the Russians announce that they too have built a similar computer for those same purposes on their side--Guardian. And when the two machines begin sharing information at a speed nobody can believe, an attempt is made to disable them.This unfortunately just raises the machines' ire; and in retaliation, they launch their weapons at each other's home nations. The result is a chilling scenario that is potentially becoming all too real these days.COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT was not a big hit at the box office for various reasons. One is that its cast wasn't exactly well known. Another reason is that its ending isn't exactly a happy one. Still a third reason is that Universal had trouble trying to promote it in the wake of the huge success of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The latter reason is obvious: Colossus and Guardian, like HAL in the Kubrick movie, become central characters here. The difference here is that while HAL malfunctions due to a programming conflict, Colossus and Guardian remain all too stable, convinced beyond a doubt that they know how to protect Mankind better than Man himself. As the computers point out: "One inevitable rule is that Mankind is his own worst enemy."Joseph Sargent's direction is efficient, and the special effects work of Albert Whitlock still manages to work despite its obvious age. An overlooked gem in the sci-fi genre, this should be given a revival.
