    109. AI Sci-Fi: Artificial Intelligence

    On the third and final episode of Jabriel's sci-fi-heavy theme, the gang revisits Steven Spielberg's futuristic fable A.I. Artificial Intelligence. Originally conceived by Stanley Kubrick before his untimely death in 1999, this dark and twisted reimagining of the Pinocchio tale is a movie of contradictions, equal parts bleak and schmaltzy, daring and formulaic.
