TRANSCENDENCE – Hollywood Film Review

Rating: ***

What if our brightest minds had a plan to save mankind?

Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp), the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him.

Will Caster has a dream to make man as ‘powerful as God’ through this creation of Artificial Intelligence. He is shot at the presentation led by his wife and fellow researcher Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) to attract potential sponsors. Will Caster survives the initial attach, but then the doctors give him a month or so as they find out that the bullet was laced with radioactive material which will eventually shut down Will’s vital organs, resulting in his death.

With the Russian underworld in pursuit, and battling a countdown to war, the two McClanes discover their opposing methods make them unstoppable heroes.

This is the fifth in the series of the action films Die Hard which began with Die Hard in 1988.

Bruce Willis is back as John McClane, an iconoclastic, take-no-prisoners cop, who for the first time finds himself on foreign soil after traveling to Moscow to help his wayward son Jack (Jai Courtney) – unaware that his son is really a highly-trained CIA operative out to stop a nuclear weapons heist.

A high-ranking corrupt Russian officer in Moscow, Viktor Chagarin (Sergei Kolesnikov), plans on incriminating a political prisoner, a government whistleblower who is a former billionaire Yuri Komarov (Sebastian Koch).
