A man (played by Sam Rockwell) walks into a diner claiming he’s from the future and warning of a time to come when smartphone dependency has led to societal collapse and artificial intelligence has gained full control.
He needs volunteers to help him track down the source and steer it in a better direction, a quest he’s tried multiple times before without success, but, with the future of humanity on his shoulders, one he must keep trying and trying again.
There’s a lot of fun to be had in Pirates of the Caribbean director Gore Verbinski’s satisfyingly tech-fearing, sci-fi comedy adventure, where AI is the very much the bad guy.
