Fall Film Highlight: The Creator

Arts & Entertainment Movies Opinion Reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed The Creator. With its action-packed scenes and innovative visual effects, the viewer is brought along a futuristic journey to witness the ultimate battle between mankind and artificial intelligence. Joshua, our main character, portrayed by John David Washington, is called upon to embark on a journey that will decide the fate of mankind.

Artificial Intelligence has gone rogue, bombing cities and wiping out millions of innocent people. He is the only one aware of the mechanisms to stop the onslaught, but he has to decide between his family and humankind.

Throughout the film, an ultramodern soundtrack completes the dystopian world, and the viewer is in the front seat for all of the action. Each scene reveals an unexpected layer of plot, while the unfolding soundtrack makes room for the dramatic and avant-garde atmosphere of the film.

The Creator is a must-see for fans of the Star Wars franchise and related cinematic masterpieces. Gareth Edwards is also the director of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. On a scale of 1 – 10, with 10 being excellent, I’d rate The Creator a solid 9.5 for originality and spectacular cinematography.
