I'm sorry mommy, I'll be a hero

     Let me start by saying that this is my first time watching this film so don't hate me. This film also made me cry quite a bit which is kind of a big deal. This is the most touching film I've seen this month. The movie is basically Pinocchio but with robots. The story is about a family who's son is sick. A company has made a robot child who has the power to love. The parents abandon him and all he wants is to find the blue fairy and be a real boy so his mom will love him by pleading things such as the title of this post and "what if I'm real I love you". I am of course A.I. Artificial Intelligence. Again don't have me for never seeing this one before.

      This film is a powerhouse of emotion as I've said before. The sets are beyond lavish and imaginative and this works perfectly for a film of this magnitude. The acting is spectacular. Haley Joel was the best child actor of his time and his work never ceases to amaze. The whole tale is told in a style that works well with gritty realism and stark wonder. The film is one of the best I have ever seen and I question my existence and other deep questions because I have never seen this film.

This film left me speechless and for that you all need to see it.

Ebert's score 4 stars
