That would have been a good line for Rocket when the Guardians of the Galaxy were in that prison and Groot shoved his fingers up that giant ogres nose and made him cry like a baby!
It's difficult to imagine a civilization manufacturing self-replicating, all-consuming, nano bugs surviving their creation of self-replicating, all-consuming, nano bugs.
They needed thermobarics and microwave weapons not fifty cals. Nanomachines are powerful but they dont have enough surface area to dissipate heat fast enough, melt them.
They thought it was a giant robot, not a giant nanite swarm. Granted, I still wouldn't bother with Ma Deuce for a giant robot, and agree that they needed that scale of weapons on hand for a giant alien robot or just straight up a nuke in that bunker.
2:43 “I want all of our forces bunched up together in very neat rows. And bring them in close. No, closer. So close it renders their weapons ineffective. Yes. Perfect.”
That "open the door" irony was the kind of thing that seemed okay, but was so on the nose that it made the movie a chore. I can't stress enough how often it slapped you over the head with the moral of the film (humans suck, but sometimes are good, and maybe they can be better) with the subtlety of an anvil. Just an anxious look at the door and confirmation that the door was sealed would have been enough. The other major flaw was that just about everything the humans did was justified. Locking the guy in was the right call, locking the facility was the right call, treating everything about this first contact like they were going to annihilate humanity and our only hope was information gathering was the right call. When the humans were absolutely on the ball, it made the aliens look less moral or justified in their own concerns and actions.
Honestly, that might have been one of the points of this movie. A lot of movies do try to drive home the point that humans suck and aliens are wiser and more righteous, but sometimes aliens will be arrogant, cruel, and still so technologically overwhelming that humanity wouldn’t stand a chance. It’s scary when we’re judged by a superior, God-like force, but it’s even scarier when that force itself is morally flawed.
Another epic emotionally charged Keanu Reeves acting tour-de-force in which he plays an all powerful flat blank semi-pissed off arbiter of death. What range.
Incredibly convenient for the government that they happened to have this test facility specifically designed to investigate this type of tall humanoid robot.
@ Not an expert in this field, but I’m thinking ICBM tubes don’t have glass windows where you can watch the launch through, or self-destructs that flame the whole tube. Or the feature to lock everyone inside the viewing chamber. But its just a movie. To me, the best part is John Cleese.
it could be former icbm facility or cold war bomb shelter repurposed for black ops type stuff like genetically engineering super soldiers, biological cyborg drones from living animals, etc
The forces outside were set up to deal with a giant robot. They were ready for the wrong opponent. Like Burt Gummer in Tremors 2 when he came prepared for Graboids but had to deal with Shriekers.
It could have been a good movie. But, they had to screw it up with the White Mom that has an obnoxious B child sub plot that goes no where. It was so out of of place. Not a great story.
i thought that the point of the child-mom arc was to show the alien humanity's softer side, while also reminding him that we as a species are basically just children who have potential but need some guidance. seeing the mom's love for the bratty child basically changed his mind about ending us didn't it? either way, the kid was super annoying 😅
the obnoxious kid represents humanity and mom dealing with kid rather than getting rid of kid was role model for aliens to not just get rid of stupid humans
It seems today that the most dangerous military enemy is nano drones, invisible and will enter everywhere, kill people like a disease. Scary movie, when I saw it for the first time I was terrified.
Just imagine they are the size of a small birds armed with lethal poison. A swarm of these AI creations could wipe out battalions within hours. I'm guessing that's what the future is
As a machinist i was always like...what, why didnt they just set op a row of bits and use them docked like a linear tool changer...Ohhh you dont know those existed in 1933 ahhhh OK I get it now! Yeah sure we reach in and change the tool at every new path or hole...sigh.... No we dont, we sit on a chair and watch. We even know to the second tool life, were that bored. yet cant leave it unattended.

electrum310 You can be a good person in life any do everything correctly, but alien nanobytes from another world may still kill you. Life isn't always fair!
Have you noticed how fast the man who is in charge tries to flee when he is scared for his own life and abandoning the team ? That's so common and selfish behavior of executives and so disgusting.
Why would a robot formed with microbots even take a shape of humanoid to begin with? Literally not much action in humanoid form and only action we saw it was as a swarm of microbots flying. This was such a letdown.
The omnivorous bug swarm with computer graphic movement and cheap-looking swarm pattern wasn't scary or even interesting. Nor was it clever or even pretend-convincing. What it Was was a gigantic Cop Out using a cheesy Trash CGI application transferred onto film instead of FILMING ACTION WITH A CAMERA, Like They Do WHEN THEY'RE MAKING A MOVIE. TOO BAD THEY DECIDED NOT TO FILM A MOVIE FOR CINEMA LIKE PEOPLE COULD GO TO & WATCH. Smellwood Should Just Switch To SELLING COMPUTER SIMULATION SOFTWARE FROM NOW ON INSTEAD OF PRETENDING THEY HAVE ACTORS & SETS. The "Director" gets to play with a computer mouse in a dim room to decide which direction to move the swarm in and change its propagation. WHY EVEN BOTHER SHOWING A STUPID ROBOT THAT JUST WAVES HI.👎🏻 W O W W H A T A N I N S U L T To The ORIGINAL Picture With Michael Rennie and Gort, Which Is F A R, F A R S U P E R I O R. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Original was far better. Cgi did not improve the story.
Au contrary...CGI are creating stupid movies as they care more for special effects than the history line / logical.
Story was the same.CGI made it more watchable.

@@geargeekpdx3566Wrong
Biggest disappointment of this movie was when the big robot never did a single big robot thing and then just stopped being a big robot.
I too was expecting some big robot stuff.
that´s the Idea, those Pentagon Hawks espected a Robot, and they Get a Nano-Drones Atack.
herbderbler1585. I hear you on the big robot disappointment, but for me Wil Smiths annoying kid was a bigger disappointment!
Bit like Joe Biden
yep lame
“No one leaves.” What a G
Planet Sized Nads.
My man.
“This facility has been sealed.”
"I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me"
The line from Roarcharch and its really fit here too
That would have been a good line for Rocket when the Guardians of the Galaxy were in that prison and Groot shoved his fingers up that giant ogres nose and made him cry like a baby!
Oh no you di'nt !!! Watchmen !!!!!!🤯
"-Open the door! -Oh i'm sorry, did the irony caught up with you?"
Did it _catch_ up...
Was always struck by how bloodthirsty the peace loving aliens were.
It's difficult to imagine a civilization manufacturing self-replicating, all-consuming, nano bugs surviving their creation of self-replicating, all-consuming, nano bugs.
You mean like an advanced civilisation lol…. Well said
They could very well be programmed to replicate under specific situations.
@@EricMcConnaughey
Wouldn't want to be the one to get the coding wrong on something like that. 😅
Well....as shown by the movie, self-replicating, all-consuming nano bug become much more managable if you installed a switch to turn them off.
a grey goo would envelop the whole planet
That was a good “Gentlemen it’s been an honor” moment haha went out like a total badass. “This facility has been sealed”
Or simply stating, "when the chamber is flashed all doors are sealed, so the off-site personnel review what happened. This was your policy, remember?"
They needed thermobarics and microwave weapons not fifty cals. Nanomachines are powerful but they dont have enough surface area to dissipate heat fast enough, melt them.

Not gonna work. Those FLASH chamber have a better performance than any thermobaric or microwave weapon ......and still didnt work.
Hotter.

Yeah, lots of movies do that and it takes a fraction of actions to determine...hey all humans suck.
Check out "The Obsolete Man" on the Twilight zone.

I see what you did there.
The aliens were genuinely scary in this one.
M270 MLRS casually shooting target in sight range less than km away. I think minimal range on it is 4km
Another epic emotionally charged Keanu Reeves acting tour-de-force in which he plays an all powerful flat blank semi-pissed off arbiter of death. What range.
hey now! you forget he also did Bill & Teds' Excellent Adventure?
@ "whoa!"
The only scenes that were worth it was his discussion with John Cleese's character.
Agreed
It was so odd seing him on a non-comedic role. And he was great as always.
Incredibly convenient for the government that they happened to have this test facility specifically designed to investigate this type of tall humanoid robot.
They just place it inside an icbm launch site.

Furnace for destroying bio or chem weapons, but yeah, no windows.
martystrasinger3801. That's why it's called Science fiction and not Science fact. See many 50 foot robots where you live?
Stupid having that huge door blast off like that, or even to bend as there was no force at all being created to do that.

It could have been a good movie. But, they had to screw it up with the White Mom that has an obnoxious B child sub plot that goes no where. It was so out of of place. Not a great story.
I hated the whole child arch in the movie as well. Of course that was back when Will Smith was forcing his untalented son into every movie he could.

Totally agree. If they had a kid that could act it would've been a lot better.
Completely agree. It added nothing and the kid was just super unlikable.

@josephdoiron8376 and ark, if you haven't read Silo that's basically the premise of the books. Good read and Silo series is on Apple+.
2:58 just HAD to add in the Wilhelm scream in the right channel.
Yet another movie that should not have been remade. Special effects are wasted on this bomb.
GORT being a humanoid robot seems pointless in the film, other than nostalgia-bait.

Good film, even brilliant. John Cleese....
I REALLY really wanted to like this movie...
Even in the original the aliens were arrogant pricks. But these are worse, since they brought CGI too.
Ha ha ha excellent one!
Sad that they focus on CGI instead of making a good story
Indeed. Already at the start of the movie they murdered a mountain climber that they later used as model to create a humanoid alien.
The CGI is pretty good, tbh.
What could be the best strategy against insects that eat metal ?
Acidic Pesticides?
But these eat everything including metal
Nanite swarm
Better call SG1.
This is how SCP containment breach can looks like.
I like how he literally just saw this nanobots destroying titanium or any kind of matter in seconds and still thinks he can "seal" the facility!
He simply following the protocol.
