Bottle Breaker
May. 06,2019Set in the late 1990’s, Bottle Breaker is about a brilliant graduate-level creative writing student, Samantha Grayson, who is challenged with writing a better short story than a state-of-the-art artificial intelligence console, named Cobb. As the challenge begins to personally affect her, she finds support in the endeavor from her boyfriend, Blake, and tries to write the perfect story. The film asks the question: If machines can do everything as well as humans, even creating art, what does that mean for our species? Is anything sacred?

A Disappointing Continuation
The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
