On the screen comes the film “My Creator”

Of short flashbacks we learn that his happiness is destroyed by accident: the windshield flew oncoming car, a pregnant wife Julie died. And now, the purpose of George – a secret from the owners to construct its twin robot, downloading it the consciousness of the deceased. In the film version, after physical death the consciousness of man is still active and 200 hours is stored in the archive created a certain Archive Systems Incorporated. George is in a hurry: before the consciousness of the beloved will fade forever, we must create a worthy vessel. That is an exact copy robot, endowed with its intelligence. The concept, invented by Director Gavin rotary – he is the author of the script – what can I say, interesting: it is based on a strong myth about the nine days, light tunnel and other joys of dying. Recall that 200 hours – this is the nine days.

But here comes in the action of purely subjective factors. Rotary first profession a specialist in visual effects – he did, for example, a fantasy entourage to the 2009 film “Moon 2112”. His filmography is not rich, he was hungry for work in his debut “Archive” (“My Creator”) pays particular attention to the physical design, making it a fantastic household at the same time. On the one hand, hydraulic polygons, locking the den of a hermit-scholar, automatically retractable bridges across the abyss – like in a medieval castle. On the other, already created by the robots J-1 and J-2 – combination of metal boxes with dim as electric meters, scoreboard – obviously assembled from scrap parts. That is a crazy take-off of fantasy deliberately podscasts today – and apparently eternal – costumesto. The realism is impressive, the images of the robots are almost more interesting and deeper than the Central character – the only one in this circle of people. Few people in the movie or appear on the monitors, or are alive in the form of a Commission, which then will be hounded rested on the idea of a fanatic.

Stacy Martin has to play two roles: his expansive wife and a copy of it – with a perfectly plastic face, geometrically divided into zones, with a suspended on ropes body, yet deprived of legs and eyes – the only organ where there is already life. Until then it looks almost plausible, but the transition to the final recovery failed: the electronic creation, nothing betrays its artificial origin, but as the brilliant George did this secretly and alone, remains unknown. Here and comes to mind the assumption that this story is an extended metaphor. A metaphor for what is still a mystery.

the Relationship of the husband with a dead wife, ironically, is the least interesting line of the film. Amusing story complexes that are plagued by unsightly J-1 and J-2 and their zeal for a more perfect humanoid J3 – she played almost touching, especially in the original soundtrack, and even ends with a pathetic suicide from unrequited love. Here you will involuntarily remember the mandate Saint-Exupery “We are responsible for those who tamed”.

the Last third of the picture – the triumph of visual effects, break free against all logic. The Director clearly enjoys the opportunity to take some revenge, someone to prove that with a small budget you can achieve cool results. This he proved, but the meaning is exactly what is happening out in the fog. Which is now images, you can recognize the influence of the fantasies of Kubrick (2001: a Space Odyssey) and Tarkovsky with his sick visions in “Solaris”. Hero rudely interrupted the attempts of the sensitive J-3 to perform the conjugal duty, hears in the handset the voice of his unborn son, and finally the dead wife with the child takes from the Creator of the loser in addition to a luminous tunnel to the Creator with a capital letter. Pretty simple plot, the story is sinking in the shifting haze, where possible, any Association from the straightforward to the Bible forcibly, not having the film of the soil.

something similar was the case with epic fantasy from the Wachowski brothers “the Matrix”. It was considered a revelation, a Grand allegory, loaded with philosophical meanings found in her development of ideas from Plato to Asimov, elevated to the rank of cult – and now one of the authors who are now imposing Lilli Wachowski, told the world that the future sister Wachowski’s just artistically justified the idea of transvestism, had not yet captured the minds and not become routine. Therefore, we will not look dry residue in the donut hole, will just watch effectively removed, the spine-tingling kinofentezi and enjoy the consciousness that all this is happening in faraway Japan in the distant year of 2048.

the Result of view: undoubtedly a talented Director with interesting prospects. Find a good literary material – it just isn’t.
