It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Dialogue aimed at 10 year olds. Ex machina spoon feeding you at every crucial plot twist. 1997 computer graphics. Completely wooden acting from nearly every character, moved a!omg by unbelievable motivations. I should have shut it off 20 minutes in! Did Cusack really need a paycheck this badly?

I can't believe I wasted 1 1/2 hours of my life on this. You know a movie is bad when halfway through it you're just waiting for it to be over. This movie has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

Robots were supposed to make our lives easier, and at first, they did. Despite all the progress humanity made, it wasn't good enough for Elias Van Dorne (John Cusack), who decided robots were the way to salvation. Van Dorne promised his latest program, Kronos, would save the planet, but how? By wiping out all human life, because we are ultimately what is killing Earth. Fast Forward ninty-seven years as Andrew Davis (Julian Schaffner) wakes up in a world he doesn't know. Attempting to find his way, he meets a young girl, who tells him of a place that is free from Kronos, only question is, can they make it there in one piece? On paper this seems like a great story, and for a b-movie, the special effects are pretty remarkable, but that was the only notable thing about this film. The whole plot really doesn't make much sense, I mean why would Van Dorne want to destroy humanity and live alone forever as part of a computer program? The cast is lead by newcomer, Julian Schaffner, who shows a lot of inexperience but also a lot of potential. I think it's a good thing for a young actor to start out in a film like this, because he can gain his experience in something relatively small and unknown, before moving on to bigger and better things. As for John Cusack, I usual enjoy his films, but in this case he was just terrible. Elias Van Dorne is a character without feeling or purpose, just an evil button pusher, who loves the sound of his own voice, a complete waste of Cusack's talent. The bottom line, Singularity has it moments, but there are too many slow points and too much inexperience seeping through for it to be something I would ever watch again or recommend over hundreds of better choices.

Every actor in this was the worst at their craft, including John Cusack who texted-in, didn't even bother to phone-in, his wooden silly performance. The two younger actors can maybe plead inexperience and bad direction. The plot is just a mish-mash ripoff of bits of Terminator and Matrix and every other "computers rule the world" scifi - all done better than this. It had a few decent effects so I gave it a 2, but really NOT worth a watch.
