Best Robot Movies: "Archive"
It's entirely possible that you've never heard of the 2020 independent film "Archive," but even though it's not well-known, it still deserves a place on this list. The film stars Theo James as a scientist named George Almore, who is desperate to create the first truly human A.I. in hopes of being reunited with his dead wife. George has his wife's consciousness stored and ready to be uploaded into the robot, but questions of ethics and disagreements with his other A.I. creations stall his progress. The budget for "Archive" may have been small, but this little movie is packed with big ideas, a stellar performance from James, and more than enough emotion to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
