What Sci Fi/Tech movies do to me

Maybe I believe that our current “relationships” with computers is too one sided (we put in the work - they get all of the glory).  Or , maybe I need to recognize how truly valuable my computer is.  If the later is true then i don’t think that movies like the Minority Report, Sunshine, any [...]

Am I really supposed to believe that U23D is all that?
