“To reboot a classic movie for a new generation is lazy and disgraceful. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTo come up with a new conceptually outside-the-box movie with a cohesive plot is extremely rare and is a true gem. The most recent thing example I can think of is u0026#39;The Matrixu0026#39;, unprecedented concepts, albeit still lacking some cohesion.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026#39;Infinity Chamberu0026#39; falls into a third, middle-ground category: Borrowing new elements/concepts from other movies as a means to create a u0026quot;originalu0026quot; movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIMO, any such movie would still fall into a sub-genre of the original movie it borrowed its defining elements from. The new movie can still be original (in its own right) if it uses the borrowed concept only as a launchpad to branch off into creative laterals. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Good:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026#39;Infinity Chamberu0026#39; is largely a one-man show. Thankfully, the lead actor does a great job of keeping the viewer entertained. Interestingly, the dialogue between the man and the computer is what gave the movie its charm. The computer has all the qualifying intellectual attributes of a real person:, mannerisms, personality, relatability, voice etc. Itu0026#39;s easy to forget that the dialogue isnu0026#39;t between two people, despite the computeru0026#39;s limitation to only give pre-programmed or abstract answers. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhether friendly or hostile, Iu0026#39;ve always appreciated movies where man and machine can form any sort of progressing understanding towards the other. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Bad: u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie isnu0026#39;t without some obscurity and unanswered questions. While this may turn some viewers off entirely, I found them to be forgivable due to the entertaining themes and aspects of the movie as a whole. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf you like movies like u0026quot;Moonu0026quot; or u0026quot;Ex Machinau0026quot;, Iu0026#39;d venture to say youu0026#39;d find this movie interesting, if not entertaining. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e8/10 stars for this low-budget sci-fi movie that brings forth an entertaining sub- original storyline in a world of countless and shameless Hollywood reboots.”
