movie review - The Mitchells vs. The Machines

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2021.05.02

This is an animated flick we watched on "movie night". It features an inventive kid who struggles against a towering corporation that falls victim to its own robotic product in an AI-turns-slavemaster scenario. It's somewhat original in the way things play out and in the sorts of challenges the heroine faces and the sorts of solutions she creates.

Recommended.
