"Jennifer Lopez's 'Atlas' Disappoints as AI Thriller on Netflix"

TL;DR Summary
Netflix's sci-fi thriller "Atlas," starring Jennifer Lopez, struggles with sluggish pacing and underdeveloped characters despite a promising premise. Directed by Brad Peyton, the film features Lopez as a counterterrorism expert in a future world where AI has turned against humanity. While the movie has some intriguing twists and a detailed production design, it ultimately falls short due to clunky dialogue, unfinished CGI, and an underutilized antagonist played by Simu Liu. Fans of Lopez might find it worth watching, but it doesn't stand out in Netflix's crowded sci-fi catalog.
