Movie Trailer: Transcendence (2014)


It’s going to happen some day. Computers will become so advanced they will become aware. How it will happen is anyone’s guess but in Wally Pfister’s directorial debut Transcendence it happens when the consciousness of a scientist is implanted into a machine. From the trailer released this evening by Warner Bros. even with the best intentions such grands plans can go awry. And when I say awry, I mean they go cataclysmically wrong. Watch the melding of man and machine, if you must.

Transcendence stars Johnny Depp, Kate Mara, Morgan Freeman, Cillian Murphy, Paul Bettany, Cole Hauser and Rebecca Hall.

Official Synopsis:
Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is 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. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.

Transcendence occurs in US theaters on April 18, 2014 and UK theaters on April 25, 2014.

    Crazy, I nearly forgot what Johnny Depp looked like without 4lbs of makeup applied to his face. It’s good to see him return to a serious role.

    “Hey, it’s never been done before AND we lost all our research but let’s just stick this plug thingy here into his head and upload his mind.”

    Only in the movies.

    Has too much of a weepy love story vibe to it to be any good.
