<Ciro Santilli> just keep watching that a gazillion times whenever it showed on TV.
All action scenes are useless crap, but the premise with Ciro's precious <simulation hypothesis> subject, related <physics and the illusion of life>.
It is a shame that the key premise of using human bodies to produce energy is completely and impossibly stupid. You would obviously get more energy by directing burning the food you feed into humans.
If the film had been made later, maybe the much more plausible concept of <AI alignment> would would have been used instead. What a shame.
