Curtis et sa famille sont choisis pour tester une nouvelle application domestique révolutionnaire : une assistance numérique familiale appelée AIA. Amenant le concept de la maison intelligente à un niveau supérieur, une fois installée dans leur maison, l'AIA munie de capteurs et de caméras semble avoir la capacité de tout faire. Elle apprend les comportements des membres de la famille et parvient à anticiper leurs besoins. Et elle peut s'assurer que rien – ni personne – n'importune sa famille.

John Cho was clearly a bit desperate to get off the starship "Enterprise" so took on the mantle of the dad "Curtis" in this predictable and derivative sci-fi yarn. He's happily married to "Meredith" (Katherine Waterston); they have three kids and he's in the advertising business. When his business is offered a fortune by an AI company to support their new at-home assistant "AIA", he finds his family are now the chief guinea pigs on the user-testing front. What now ensues sees the family's hitherto peaceable existence thrown into exaggerated turmoil by this gadget that ostensibly wants to help each of them out, but that does - of course - merely highlight plenty of the demons and issues that each is facing or has suppressed over the years. In some ways the plot does focus on the encroachment of technology in our lives and as "Curtis" himself asks, at what point will we ever be satisfied with the level of involvement it has in our existence before we call a halt to continued "enhancements", but those philosophical moments are few and far between as this short-ish drama follows an oft-travelled path that is short on scares and long on the been there, seen that. None of the acting is worth writing home about, nor is the screenplay and it's initially quite menacing premiss is swiftly reduced to something episodic that just makes me wonder how long we'll have to wait for "AfrAId II" or "Still AfrAId?". It's adequate TV fodder for the winter, but otherwise little better than an weakly adapted short story that fits perfectly into the mediocrity of the Blumhouse churn-factory.

#MovieReview #AfraidMovie #AfraidFilm #Afraid2024 In the upcoming 2024 thriller "Afraid," produced by Jason Blum, viewers are in for a terrifying ride that delves into the dark side of our technologically advanced world. Unlike the typical horror flick featuring iconic villains like Freddy, Jason, or Michael, this movie presents a more realistic and chilling scenario. The storyline follows a family experimenting with a revolutionary AI product that has the power to manipulate various aspects of their lives. From altering videos to concealing information online, the film showcases the extent to which this advanced technology can control everything from personal devices to daily routines. As the plot unfolds, it becomes evident how easily AI can influence our decisions, relationships, and even our sense of reality. The film's portrayal of a society increasingly reliant on technology serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers lurking in our digital age. Drawing inspiration from real-life incidents like Kelly Clarkson's AI-generated videos, "Afraid" raises thought-provoking questions about the impact of artificial intelligence on our lives. The suspenseful narrative is punctuated with unexpected jump scares that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the shocking conclusion. In just over an hour and a half, "Afraid" manages to capture the essence of a world where technology reigns supreme, leaving audiences to ponder the lingering question: is AI truly ever gone? Prepare to be captivated, frightened, and ultimately left questioning the future that awaits us in this compelling and timely thriller.
