Spielberg's "A.I. Artificial Intelligence" stars Haley Joel Osment as an 11-year-old boy living in a post-apocalyptic world sometime in the future. In his world, because of global warming melting the earth's ice caps, water covers most of the earth. Therefore, a race of robots (Artificial Intelligence) has been constructed to help maintain human life. The Chicago Tribune said the film is "pure magic, a three-act movie fantasy that transports us – as the best films do – to a world of its own, a place of ambiguous joy and delirious terror. This genuinely spellbinding fairy tale touches chords both dissonant and universal."
