Jennifer Lopez's Netflix sci-fi thriller Atlas is PANNED - as critics wonder if 'artificial intelligence is really all that bad' due to 'formulaic' script


Jennifer Lopez's latest film Atlas premiered on Netflix on Friday, but it hit the service amid a wave of withering negative reviews from film critics.

Lopez — who has been inundated by rumors of a split with her husband Ben Affleck in recent weeks — stars in Atlas Shepherd as a data analyst involved in tracking down a computer-based artificial intelligence that turned homicidal nearly 30 years earlier, leading a rebellion against humans that left three million people dead. Atlas has a personal stake in the efforts to find and destroy the AI, which is named Harlan (and played by Simu Liu), as her mother was responsible for creating it decades earlier, before it murderer her along with millions more. Among the few positive reviews, Angie Han gave mild praise in The Hollywood Reporter , writing that 'Lopez’s chemistry elevates otherwise unremarkable dialogue into passably amusing, occasionally touching banter'; seen in LA in March 2023
