Atlas: A Mindless and Forgettable Affair

In a bleak-sounding future, an A.I. soldier has determined that the only way to end war is to end humanity. This is the premise of Brad Peyton’s latest film, Atlas, starring Jennifer Lopez, Simu Liu, and Sterling K. Brown. But before we dive into the review, let me tell you that while watching Atlas at home, the power went out twice in the span of five minutes. Now, I don’t much believe in higher powers, but I can’t help but think this was a sign from above to tell me to stop watching before my brain turned to complete mush.

The film’s synopsis is straightforward: an A.I. soldier decides to eradicate humanity to end war. Simple, right? But what follows is a mindless and forgettable ride that fails to engage the viewer on any level. The plot is predictable, the characters are underdeveloped, and the action scenes are dull and uninspired.

Jennifer Lopez stars in Atlas, but even she can’t save this mess

As I sat through the film, I couldn’t help but think of all the better ways I could be spending my time. The power outages were a blessing in disguise, giving me a chance to reflect on the film’s many shortcomings. Atlas is a waste of time, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Sterling K. Brown tries to make the most of a bad script

In conclusion, Atlas is a mindless and forgettable film that fails to deliver on any level. With a predictable plot, underdeveloped characters, and dull action scenes, it’s a waste of time. Even the usually reliable Jennifer Lopez can’t save this mess.
