A whacky story with mediocre jump scares

Not bad actually, strange that it has low rating on here. Short and simple, good gimmick

It is just another evil A.I. horror tale, but the approach is somewhat fresh. It is rare in that it feels like it could have used more time to flesh some things out.

Did Blumhouse do this to us on purpose? Because I can't fathom how Jason Blum would in his right mind support this film. The story was extremely dull, and filled with confusing side stories that went nowhere. Acting was tolerable at least. I wish I had the time I wasted on this film back in my life. Overall this film was trash, and no amount of money could make me recommend it to somebody.

It was entertaining and definitely thought-provoking, considering that AI is the new thing

Fun and entertaining

I thought this movie was much better than Meghan. Although at times it felt all over the place- and could have been a bit more cohesive- I really liked the ending. I hope it gets a sequel.

Well, I liked it! I thought the script was great! Lots of jabs at the tech world and the direction it is headed. Chris Weitz had fun with the premise. Of course, it's far-fetched, but what horror film isn't? I've seen some audience reviewers complain there "was only one death." Wtf? Is that how we judge horror films? Slasher films, maybe. The tech science was right on. We'd all love to have our own AI personal assistant and ignore all the creepy ramifications and possibilities that could occur. I enjoyed the rendering of the families and school kids all glued to screens. That's the way things are now. Loved it. Especially "I can even drive you home." Ha. Nice work, Mr. Weitz.

This film reinforces my fear of the over-automation of everything. I am not a fan of self driving cars in the first place. I may never step foot in a Tesla after watching this movie.

Like so many of the reviews, it started out strong. I’m usually very jumpy and scare easily, this did none of that. I was actually disappointed when it finished. There was so much potential and it just did nothing to build on any suspense or thrill. It didn’t make me feel much of anything really.

While it is somewhat predictable, the plot kept things moving. The acting makes it belieable. A new idea on how AI takes over humanity.

I was underwhelmed. The movie seemed rushed and the plot was all too familar. I believe it had potential but missed the mark despite having a great cast of actors and actresses.

Another Blumhouse atrocity. It seems as if the producers were so set on being the first to dive into the modern AI genre, they forgot to make a good film. A sea of buzzwords, boring tropes, uninspired storytelling, and corny dialog. At least John Cho was entertaining, and the climax was somewhat thought provoking. Regardless, "AfrAId" felt like a movie written by boomers who know nothing about AI, for an audience who knows nothing about AI.

Here’s a tailored review for AfrAId (2024) starring John Cho: --- AfrAId (2024) Review In AfrAId, John Cho delivers a commanding performance in a psychological thriller that explores the haunting depths of fear, trauma, and survival. Directed by (insert director), the film takes audiences on a harrowing journey that is as cerebral as it is terrifying. The story centers on Cho’s character, a grieving father grappling with the loss of his daughter. When a series of inexplicable events begins to plague his remote home, he discovers an unseen force that preys on his deepest fears. What follows is a tense and gripping battle of wits and resilience as he struggles to confront the shadows of his past while fighting to protect what remains of his sanity. Cho is outstanding in the lead role, portraying a man teetering on the edge of despair with heartbreaking authenticity. The film’s claustrophobic setting amplifies the tension, with its dim lighting and eerie sound design working in tandem to create an unsettling atmosphere. What sets AfrAId apart is its refusal to rely solely on jump scares. Instead, it focuses on building an emotional narrative, diving into themes of guilt, grief, and the power of confronting one’s fears. The script is tight and thoughtful, keeping viewers guessing until the very end with a series of clever twists that challenge our perception of reality. While the film occasionally slows in pacing, the payoff is worth the wait. The climax is both shocking and emotionally satisfying, leaving the audience with lingering questions about the nature of fear and how it shapes our lives. AfrAId is a standout thriller for 2024—a film that combines psychological depth with edge-of-your-seat suspense. John Cho’s performance is reason enough to watch, but the film as a whole is a chilling exploration of the human condition. Rating: 9/10 --- Let me know if there’s anything you’d like to adjust!

There are pictures that tackled the smart house scenario; and there are also pictures that brewed conceptual uncertainty in a judgmental sense but upheld minimal curiosity over its proposal. This timely “horror” depicts the likelihood from speculative buildup with an inconsiderate mode besides filtered only to serve its assigned category to no avail till climaxes into a home invasion turn. Points for intellectual creativity across the associated abilities whilst being an indecisive devil’s advocate for that collective matter. (B-)
