Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
jamjamjulius The beginning... to have all the supposed "victim" class present, eternal victim class, abducted by a maniacally brilliant evil white male who listens to ebil classical wayciss music...couldn't get past the first 5 minutes. White female savior tries to get the low IQ "coloreds" to help escape, the black man who has been there for a year could not figure out how to take the mask off until white female savior comes and within days solves the riddle of the plastic mask... the "mystery race" woman is useless so the only solution is" mental miscegenation"...white woman must "marry" black man to elevate his intelligence aka genes in order to escape the bdsm dungeon. I don't like miscegenation and I think its morally wrong, those are my beliefs. I like black shows with black folk and white shows with white folk and Latino shows with Latino folk. When Netflix throws this hard political BS at me I turn it off. they don't respect me so I don't respect them. I don't like them mixing BDSM with different races, I don't like BDSM at all and this is obviously a sad attempt by Netflix to make some type SJW 50 shades of gray where of course the white male must be ebil instead the actual wish fulfillment of the white female. I got this from the first 5 minutes and shut it off. I will not pollute my mind and I also have to make lists of movies my kids can watch.
Adam Taylor There are many AI films out there, most of which end up being ridiculously preachy and try to beat the audience over the head with lessons about morality, how we treat others, etc.This movie doesn't do that. Tau delivers a very unique and enjoyable take on the AI experience. We get a really believable AI with a human counterpart. The two play off each others experiences perfectly, and deliver a truly riveting performance.We don't get the usual "AI taking over the world" cliche or the "I'm so human, please love me" idiocy. We get an AI that is truly inhuman, but still far more humane than most characters in such films. And we see a woman who is both victim and hero rolled into one, who for a change actually acts in intelligent and believable ways.This movie is a must see. Either enjoy it as a great sci-fi flick about AI, or as a wonderful drama about overcoming impossible odds (and honestly I'm not even a fan of most dramas). Definitely add this movie to your watch list. You won't regret it.
XenosVII But then fell apart bit by bit.The premise of Tau is nothing new, but still interesting and it has a philosophical approach. Sadly the movie can't tell it's narrative very well.The story arc is clear by the first 15 minutes of the film - and by this time, it gets exhausting to watch. The script is lousy written and poorly executed. Every step is predictable. Although Maika Monroe does a decent job, there is no build-up and no tension.This movie is completely forgettable - which is a pity for this exciting and fascinating premise.
m-azh-lamino I think this movie was well established in the beginning. What was really disappointing was what happens toward the second half. I don't know what happened, but it felt like the writer sold the story to a 10-year-old all of a sudden. Not only you realize that this is a cheap Ex Machina ripoff, but everything turns out predictable and cringy.
