Have to join the dissenters here. Saw the movie but didn’t detect Hollywood’s usual conspiracy-theory premises. The source of the movie’s larger conflict is the inability of corporations or governments to foresee who will eventually get hold of advanced weaponry – surely a realistic issue in today’s world. Surprisingly, the military and the shadowy government agency are among this movie’s good guys. Evil is attributed to greedy, ambitious, cynical persons. If there’s a moral point, it’s that individuals are responsible for the consequences of their actions. I didn’t feel the movie was preaching at any time. It also didn’t seem to take itself too seriously. Overall, it was quite enjoyable. No need to leave halfway through.
