Review of Finch

Finch (2021)
7/10
Decent film, dystopian but hopeful
12 November 2021
This film is a nice film. I'd recommend it for anyone who can accept a dystopian society and the hope that can come from near hopelessness.

The story is reasonably sensible. The environments look good and there's sufficient pace that the story never gets too boring. You have an opportunity to understand Finch and his companions and the bond he has with each of them. You even understand why he turns to these companions instead of other humans.

If the story has one let down, it's the robot. Firstly, I know quite a bit about the logic behind computers and AI. The physical and logical behaviour of the robot makes no sense at all. I couldn't get past that this was a human that was digitally edited out of the film.

People have compared this to Castaway. Other than Tom Hanks, I saw very little similarity.

Worth a watch, probably not worth a repeat watch.
