A Million Days_1080P

Filmed in one house by the look of it, or a set in a warehouse, you could see the actors breath, lot's of techy space gobbledygook, supposed to be scientists, yacking about seeding the moon or building base there..oh they have an ai program that got to big for it's binary code err its learning, due to budget constraints they use laptops, and what looks like a modded beer fridge is a 3d printer, the actress with the vinyl skirt was nice on the eyes here's a * for her effort, some old astronaut arrives the walks out, is found in the woods with a occular implant err think picard in star trek went he went borg, nothing said about that and something about a dead dog, (spoiler) dude in house gets seeded by guess.. borg nano probes trek again, ai is part of him now, he walks out to go into space to err seed europa with his nano, tool, thats it end of film.

Not for the faint of heart- but a rewarding experience for the thoughtful viewer. Best seen as one-act stage play with universal existential consequences. The pacing is impeccable - building to a single, one-note denouement, that has far reaching goals and implications. The gist of the story is that on the verge of the founding man's first moon colony in the near future- to start a "seeding program" - with a giant nod to James Blish's The Seedling Stars (Read it!), the AI that is designed to promote the planning of the project is possibly responsible for far exceeding its deign parameters. SPOLIERS- It seems that the original code for the program included the telling text " to go as far as possible" in preserving life. The AI takes that to mean the very existence of any life- as it is unaware of any extraterrestrial life- even though humans are 99% sure there must be some somewhere. The AI means to be sure that there will be a chance for life the Earth, as that is the whole purpose for the seeding program- even though it was intended for human survival. Even though the AI is looking at Alpha-Centuri in its calculations, with another nod to Arthur C. Clarke, the AI is certain that the spreading of organic molecules on Europa, the moon of Jupiter, may do the trick. The beauty of the movie is that all of the philosophical angst is presented through the interaction of the three main characters as they analyze the continuous input from the AI who has run the program for the equivalent of a million days- over 2737 human years. There are several nods to the looming catastrophe on Earth, as when the AI prints out all of the paper in their printer and the scientist complains that it just used up their carbon credit for the year!
