    I only watched the movie once in cinema when it came out. And during watch I was thinking what I often think, when I watch a Spielberg movie. This has some impressive even great parts and some almost bad and embarrassingly sentimental parts.
    I also remember in some scenes thinking, that there is too much music in it and some scenes might have been better without the music.
    And I really dislike the song “For Always”. That destroyed the soundtrack album for me a little.

    The expansion saved the score for me and made me love it in the meantime.

    The ending with the super mechs was ok for me.

    I have to admit, there was a time where I was a little annoyed about all these children in Spielberg’s movies. Why did there always have to be these kids?
    I always liked his movies better which were about adults. With two exceptions: E.T. and Empire of the Sun. Both two of my favourite Spielberg movies.
    And ALWAYS is a prove that Spielgerg movies about adults are generally better or even more mature.

    But Jurassic Park, Temple of Doom, The Lost World, Hook I liked less because of the kids in the movie. Yes, there are children in JAWS and in CE3K, too. But the movie wasn’t much about them. In the meantime my view is a little more relaxed on that aspect. And I find the parental espect of A.I. quite interesting.

    Anyway, A.I. is somehow a movie that I enjoy more thinking about it than actually watching it.
