What this movie teaches us, that we are nothing else but computers.
Our memory is just just data. And i dont mean that in any metaphorical way.
It can be edited and manipulated (in theory). Everything what we think and feel is our past, is worthless. Data. 1 and 0. We cant even tell for sure that we really experienced what we think what happened to us. You dont even know if you or youre conscious was just born minutes ago, And you will die in a couple of seconds. Giving your memory to s.o. else
I found the movie very sad. I mean why do humans believes that clones are NO human? They feel the same like us and have the same rights and all they do is treat them like slaves and give them a lie!
@netskot When did Gerty lie? The online I believe was when he was having the live conversation. I think Gerty was pretty helpful, I kept expecting him to turn evil and kill Sam.
@jimtube84 when sam walks in on gerty talking to those head back on earth about what to do, sam asks him what he's doing and he lies. he also lied to him by letting him believe he's going back to earth.
@jimtube84 yes, but it was an intended omission. he led him on to believe he was leaving the moon station. i can't believe some of the people liked that robot, i thought he was a villain the entire time. he patronized Sam and condescended to him the entire movie. he only started being nice at the end.
What if it was orders coming from Lunar Industries, and GERTY is just blindly following them? I liken robots to naive children, and I figure the same would apply to GERTY. He doesn't know why he's following them, he doesn't question, just blindly follows.
@piemanization nah, no one controlled gerty in real time. he was programmed to respond to him. and his programming was to deceive sam when he asked the important questions.
GERTY is awesome. Love this movie. GERTY in full blown smiley mode is superb. And yes mhbed5, I thought this was going full HAL. Thankfully it didn't, and I and the movie are all the better for that.
@mhbed5 That's the point I think, I mean they play him up like a villain or malfunctioning at the start, with him getting in the way/ keeping stuff from sam and the Gerty 9000 logo or whatever it was to bring up memories of Hal and the twist was that he was good all along.
gerty has more humanity than the humans on earth who just killed the first clones. gerty even helps clone 5 on his plan to return to earth, and this is different becouse robots and A.I. are usually shown like the enemy or evil. great great movie.
@jeasocrazy This movie is too intellectual for the common movie fan. No ridiculous effects, no sex, no explosions, just good writing, good directing and GREAT acting.
I love how Gerty subverts your expectations, they totally play him like he's an evil robot with loads of hints that he's malfunctioning etc. and yet he's Sam's only friend up there.
This movie really explores what it is to be a person. I'd say Sam and GERTY have equal claim to being a person. In the future there won't be a reason to discriminate between intelligent machines and creatures and everything in between.
I personally think that Gerty is Sam's greatest comfort in his situation. Can you imagine if Gerty was an absolute robot (i.e. without emotions etc...) and Sam somehow found out about his clone status and had to continue the rest of his lonely existence with inanimate alien and hostile objects? To this, I don't think that Sarang was being 'counter-productive' by inventing a robot w emotions. That cld even be strategic on their part...to cushion the backlash should a clone discover he is one.
Okay, maybe someone can answer this: what scene is the part where the protagonist and his clone are fighting and gerty randomly asks "Are you hungry?" if that video is out there, I would appreciate the link
I just watched this movie and the whole time GERTY was twisting my heartstrings, but when he made the crying face I absolutely burst into tears. It was just too sweet. I'm really happy he was not a HAL 9000 kind of robot and ended up being a sidekick to the protagonist instead of siding with LUNAR.
I wouldn't be so sure. Remember Gerty told all the other clones that the return vehicle was real and then incinerated them. Then Gerty's arm came in with a dust pan and cleaned up their ashes and coldly awakened another clone.
are you talkin bout the movie or my life?if you watched my life several times then how do i die,is it peaceful or like final destination?i'll watch the movie if i can find it.
@areyoulookinatmepal1 GOD this was a dumb question: of course it's the movie!!! seriously, who are you to have stalkers all over? Anyway, there's plenty of torrents of it if you can't find the DVD.
I don't really think this is a spoiler, the whole reveal that he's a clone happens almost right away. That’s not really what the movies about, its better then one of those cheap movies with the suprriiseee!! at the end it’s just a really well written heart breaking story
really a sad moment its actually really hard to relate to a movie charecter and this actor managed keep me interested the whole time pretty amazing for a one actor only movie
@NathanCipher I didn't search for this scene, but I found it as I was going through the songs of the movie's soundtrack. I haven't seen the movie, but I heard it had a beautiful soundtrack. I plan to rent it this weekend, and was a little shocked to see the title give away a big plot element... :[
i remember this movie. What a wicked plot twist it was.
