Watch: The Machine 2013 123movies, Full Movie Online – Two artificial intelligence engineers come together as they work to create the first ever self-aware artificial intelligence. A veteran AI engineer secretly hopes to develop technology to help his diseased daughter, even if it means funding comes from the powerful Ministry of Defence (MoD). His new partner, a young woman gifted in the field of AI, is brought on after her breakthroughs are recognized by the MoD. Things go wrong when the MoD takes over and advances the researchers’ work to the next level, teaching the AI to kill and follow MoD instructions with its new and nearly indestructible body..
Plot: Already deep into a second Cold War, Britain’s Ministry of Defense seeks a game-changing weapon. Programmer Vincent McCarthy unwittingly provides an answer in The Machine, a super-strong human cyborg. When a programming bug causes the prototype to decimate his lab, McCarthy takes his obsessive efforts underground, far away from inquisitive eyes.

**Creating an artificial intelligence, but its intelligence beyond expected’s the issue.**Maybe the films about artificial intelligence that were made in the last 5 years might outnumber to those were made before that for centuries. Especially there are lots of B movies on this theme and some of them surpassed the film critics and the film fanatics’ expectations. Here is another one, but this is a British film. Though one thing I don’t understand is, in all these films they make the same mistakes. I mean the film characters recognising the AI as one of us which leads to a major disaster.
Sets in the future, when the Chinese aggression towards the Taiwan made the west, especially Britain to counteract them in the region, they decide to build a most advanced AI. But when the scientist creates beyond what the military needed, the conflict of interest surface among them. From this, who gains what, and how the story ends comes in the latter part.
Initially I liked it, but not the progression. It led nowhere, but the same crumble and a conflict between the man and the machine. I’m not saying the film was bad, but I blame the overcrowded films on this theme. The filmmakers have to start to think a different kind of storyline. Going advance like what AIs can do in the field than the initiation programmes which is too old for now and onwards. So that’s where I disliked it, but not hated it. I hope you enjoyed it better than me or would do if you yet to try.
_5/10_
A disaster … the effects are good, but the plot is very **forced** and closed … very trite the subject of AI that becomes human … there are other titles even recent that far exceed it, starting with “Yo Robot” (_to which does not even reach the heels_)!
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
The Machine is a rather successful attempt at implementing hard science fiction tendencies with a cyberpunk aesthetic. It may not be particularly adroit in terms of human and AI relationships, but I appreciate the rigor of the scientific explanation for the artificial intelligence. The film really excels at this in the beginning when Vincent conducts his own Turing tests as part of a secret headhunting operation. Then as he meets Ava things start taking a problematic turn. The military-industrial complex is invoked, but its purpose is sort of shadowy and never is contextualized in a way that would make the narrative more coherent.The questioning of human identity is the strongest point of the film, but I suppose that, at the very core, this film was more interested in being a thriller, rather than an exploration of the philosophical concepts.
More A.I. Explored
A.I. usually comes in four standard flavors:1.) The program that resides in a singular non-robotic machine or device such as HAL in Space Odyssey.
2.) The ubiquitous program that infiltrates every computer related device on a network such as Skynet or the Matrix.
3.) The A.I. that inhabits a robot that is obviously a machine like Johnny 5 in Short Circuit or Chappie.
4.) The A.I. that inhabits an android type body of which is virtually indistinguishable from a human like D.A.R.Y.L., David from A.I., or the androids in Blade Runner.
The Machine is of the fourth type. The vessel was a very attractive female that was patterned after her creator, Ava (Caity Lotz). She was just robotic enough in her movements, gestures and speech to know she wasn’t real, but still human enough to question your feelings about her.
This movie was dark, both literally and figuratively. I don’t think there was any sun shown until the very end. The Machine (meaning the movie because the android was simply called Machine as well) had a mysterious element to it as is usually the case when governments are involved. The government wanted a weapon and Dr. Vincent McCarthy, the lead scientist for the government project, wanted something entirely different. The two parties clash in a violent way.
This is not one of my favorite A.I. movies but it is done pretty well. They never introduced a truly unique perspective on the topic so it didn’t move the scales much. The acting was passable as were the special effects so I’d say the movie was between OK and good, leaning more towards good.
