Previous Episode: TIFF 2023: Dumb Money

Director: Gareth Edwards
Writers: Gareth Edwards, Chris Weitz
Starring: John David Washington, Gemma Chan, Madeleine Yuna Voyles, Ken Watanabe, Sturgill Simpson
Runtime:  2 Hour 13 Minutes
Synopsis: Against the backdrop of a war between humans and robots with artificial intelligence, a former soldier finds the secret weapon, a robot in the form of a young child.

The crew talks about Gareth Edwards' The Creator. Looking past the AI propaganda that this film is (have we learned nothing?), this is a decent enough film that approaches the cusp of greatness. There is the story that Edwards told and then there's the story that's right below the surface that would have made this film great. It's still a beautiful film with an engaging enough story. It's just a bit disappointing it didn't go all the way.
