Transcendence is one of those movies that poses all
these big universal questions like What it is to be alive? What it is to be
Human? What does the future hold for mankind? etc... etc..etc...so i'm really
excited to see it but at the same time cautious; these are some big questions.
Directed by Wally Pfister, Transcendence follows a
group of scientists that create the first sentient computer, but when the lead
researcher, Dr. Will Caster becomes the target of an anti-technology extremist
group, he suddenly becomes a participant in his own transcendence.
Transcendence stars Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca
Hall, Kate Mara, Cillian Murphy, Clifton Collins, Jr. and Morgan Freeman.
Transcendence opens on April 18th, 2014.
Transcendence Official Synopsis:
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost
researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a
sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever
known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial
experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target
of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him.
However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the
catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For
his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both
fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their
worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a
seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing
that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.
