A.I. Assault (2006) - full transcript

When a plane carrying a pair of top secret military robots crashes on a deserted Pacific island, a team of Navy seals must find them and turn them off as soon as possible for the longer they are activated, the smarter they become.

Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!

Why is
It not responding!?

I don't know!

But it's not!

Something's corrupted
It's data matrix.

Help!!!!!

Help!!!!!

My god!!!
Dr. finley.

Stay back, i'll get
Him, i'll get him!!!!

Get to the truck...now!!

But major...



I said now!

Gordon, it's no use,
Fallback,

Fallback!!!

In the vehicle
Doctor, now.

I doubt it'll
Stop with finley.

C'mon, we gotta move.

Go! go! go!!!

go! go! go!!!

Look!

Son of a bitch.

Major,
It's coming fast!!!

How fast can it go?

I don't know.

Then i guess the better
Question is:



How fast can we go?

Come on major!!!!

Gun's no good!

Try a grenade!

Yes, sir!

Son of a bitch!!

It's still coming!!

Hold on.

Come on major!!!

Get the girl
Get out now!!

But sir!!!

Go now!

Yes, sir!!

C'mon!!!

We gotta get outta here

Before that thing
Comes back!!

Let's go!!

Let's go!!

So what do we do now?

Hell, lady,
You're asking me?

That's your
Machine out there.

Something must
Have gone wrong.

This is not part of the
Programming sequence.

Could'a fooled me.

Can't you
Just shut it down?

It's overriding
The command.

Somehow it's issuing
Itself a new one.

What the hell
Does that mean?

It thinks it's on a real
Search and destroy mission.

It won't stop
Till it finds us.

You mean, it won't stop
Until it kills us.

Any ideas you have
To stopping this little

Rampage would be
Greatly appreciated.

I can't believe
This happened.

It's just not possible.

Naw, building
Giant mechanical

War machines armed with
Every weapon known to science

What could
Possibly go wrong?

Your sarcasm is real
Amusing right now.

Sorry.

I get a little testy
When i'm being shot at.

Look, our only
Concern is getting

Out of here alive.

You're telling me.

Lady, that little robot
Of yours anticipated

Every evasive move we
Made out there.

That little robot, as you call
It, is the most advanced

Artificially intelligent
Machine ever created.

I'm getting real
Tired of hearing

What this thing can do.

Why don't you start telling
Me what it can't do.

Not much.

Great.

Alright,

So if we can't
Get away from it,

How do we stop it?

Don't happen to have an
A bomb on you by any chance?

Left it in my
Other pants.

When i go out there,
You take a run for it.

But...

Just do it.

Doc go!!!!!

Derek, get hold of honolulu
And tell them we need

To get above or around
This storm pronto.

Right, sir.

Honolulu, this
Is one niner seven,

one niner seven,
Come in please.

Not feeling well?

No, i'm not feeling very
Well, at all.

Boy, i sure could use
A drink right now.

Sorry, marion.

This is
A government charter

Not even peanuts.

Let me
Check here...

How can you be so
Calm in this storm?

Here ya go.

Scotch or bourbon.

Just what i needed.

just relax.

It's pretty hard
To bring one of these down

Due to
Just bad weather,

No matter
How fierce the winds.

I know, i know.

I was just thinking

How ironic it would be
To come this far in the project

Only to see it go down
The drain, so to speak.

Will you please chill.

Here have
Another one, on me.

Look, marion,

Our work is safely
Stored in the hold

And when we get to sydney
And add the final programming,

we can bury that
Incident in the desert

and reveal our
Creation to the world.

We'll be front page news.

Let's just hope it's
For the right reasons.

To the project.

Salud.

It's too bad your daughter
Couldn't be here,

She worked so hard
On the design.

She'll be along as soon
As she finishes

The conference with
The joint chiefs.

Knowing them, that
Could take weeks.

Let's hope not
For her sake.

Well, when you next
Talk to her,

Thank her for the booze.

Major, permission granted
To go to 42,000 feet.

Unfortunately, captain,
That's still a bit short

Of our problem.

I've never seen storm
Clouds go this high before.

It's a first
For me too, sir.

What?

I'm not sure.

We're ascending,
But the storm's still with us.

You said you
Were an expert.

I thought there was
Nothing to worry about.

Should i
Start worrying?

Not yet, but keep your
Seat belt fastened.

Where are you going?

Talk to the captain.

Be right back.

Not too long now.

This aircraft's not designed
To go much higher, doctor.

If i do as you say,
We could stall out

And that's when
The fat lady sings.

Then major, i suggest we
Try and circumvent it.

Sir, that could take us
Hundreds of miles off course,

And at the rate
We're burning up fuel

In this headwind,

We wouldn't make it to fiji
Let alone australia.

So, we can't go back,
Above or around.

I guess we're
Going through.

That's right, doc.

I suggest you return to your
Seat and tell the others

It's going to be
A little more than bumpy

From here on out.

Point taken, major.

Please advise me
If there's any change.

You'll be the first
To know, sir.

So what are we carrying
Down there anyway, major?

Even if i did know,
I couldn't tell ya.

It's "top secret."

Great.

What did they say?

Everything is fine.

Hold down the fort.

Feel better.

Okay.

Take a deep breath.

What's that?

Milt.

My god, they've
Been activated.

Stay here, i'll get
The neutralizer.

Watch out!

John, watch out!!!

Nooooo!!!!!!

What the hell's
Going on back there?

I'll check it out.

Come in.

I'll get back to you.

Let's have it, major.

Still no word,
Sir, nothing.

What about
Satellite recon?

Any photos?

Negative, sir.

That storm was massive,
It covered everything

In a radius
The size of texas.

And the transponder?

That's the odd
Thing, sir.

According to the latest
From intel,

It stopped transmitting
At 23:08

just minutes before the
Plane dropped off radar.

That's impossible, major.

The black box
Is fail safe.

The pilot couldn't turn
It off even if he wanted to.

Nevertheless,
General, it's off.

We've got a carrier
Sailing at full speed

Toward the area where we
Last had them pinpointed.

good.

I've contacted foster's
Daughter, susan;

She's already on a transport
Headed towards honolulu.

Storm's abated somewhat.

We'll be able to fly her
Out to the carrier

As soon as she
Touches down.

Thank you, major.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, general,

I know this was your
Personal project

And dr. foster was
A close friend of yours--

We can't presume
Anything here, major.

For all we know,

That aircraft could
Have gone down

On any one of a thousand
Atolls or small islands

In the area.

And with such an important
Cargo on board,

We've got to find out just what
Happened to that aircraft

And its passengers before
Anyone else does.

understand?

Absolutely, sir, you're
Right, we'll find them.

Let's go!!
Hurry it up!

let's go!!

What do think the
Final count is, roarke?

You said my name in
Front of a witness.

I told you not
To do that.

Look, i won't
Say anything.

I appreciate that.

Whoa, what the hell
Was that for?

Relax, shane,
The room is soundproof.

Just keep packing it up.

What is
Taking so long?

What is that?!!

Roarke's work.

You jerk, that is not
A part of the plan!!!

He opened his mouth,
It's his foul up.

Now, let's go!

Viti levu appears to be
Caught in the leading edge

of the storm....

in other news, sources are
Reporting a homicide

aboard the sea
Cruiser, oceanis.

details are sketchy, but
Witnesses report some

shots have been fired and
A steward has been killed.

as of yet, police have
Released no information,

though robbery may
Have been a motive.

I knew this
Was gonna suck.

Ready for a little
Sight-seeing, jack.

Not really.

Hell, you weren't thinking
Of leaving without us, were you?

I was thinking about it.

I didn't sign up
To fly in this soup

With a bunch
Of killers.

well, who else do you
Think would hire you

To fly in this crap?

Now fly the damn chopper.

Here, maybe this'll
Ease your conscience.

And you don't have time
To count it either.

Where are we going?

"Up" is all you
Need to know, pal.

Alright, well, then
Fasten your seat belts,

This could get rough.

Can you fly in this?

What?

I said can you
Fly in this?

No.

Wonderful.

Okay, buddy, there's
A private landing

Strip on monolo.

We'll land there.

We'll never make monolo.

I'm paying for
Self-confidence, jack.

So get us there
In once piece.

One piece of what?

Just fly the damn
Chopper, jack.

General, i was on
My way to see you,

We've just received
A faint gps transmission

From a point 350 miles
West of fiji.

The black box?

No, sir,
The frequency's too weak.

Intel says it's coming
From a small island

In the archipelago group.

Check it out.

Yes, sir.

And doctor foster's
Already on a flight

To the conroy.

She should get there
Just before dawn.

Good.

I hope she knows
What she's doing.

So do i.

Not going
To make it.

This wind's blowing
Us off course.

Look, there's an
Island down there.

Must be uncharted.

Can you land?

No, but i can crash real
Good, i guarantee it.

Great.

Anyone see a clearing
Down there?

I don't see nothin'.

Alright everyone,
Brace yourselves.

We're gonna hit hard.

Here we go.

Everyone in one piece?

Yeah.

Well, what are
We waiting for?

Let's get
The hell outta here.

Where you gonna go, pal?

Just sit tight.

Chill out, shane.

What, you got reservations
Someplace or what?

At least the rain let up.

Yeah, looks real cozy.

Hey, where are you
Going, jack?

Shane, there's
A first aid kit

Behind my seat.

Get it and your
Ass out here now.

It's alright,
It's okay, it's okay.

Must leave.
They'll kill us all.

Kill us all.

What do you mean
Kill us?

Who kill us?

Turn it off,
Turn it off!

Unstoppable...

I can't turn it off!

Here's the kit.

Forget it.

Save it for us.

He's dead.

Well, what did he say?

What happened to him?

He was
Out of his mind.

Who knows what
Happened to him.

Well i do know this.

Come morning, we give
This bird the once over

And get the hell
Off this island.

Agreed?

Yeah.

Now let me get this
Straight, admiral;

You want us to chopper
In and retrieve

A couple of robots.

That's correct, gentlemen.

How do we
Do that, sir?

Put in a couple of
""" batteries

And ask 'em
To come along nicely.

If they've somehow
Become activated,

' 'm afraid it won't
Be that easy.

Activated?

Begging your pardon, sir,
But what kind of robots

Are we looking for here?

I'm going to defer
That question

To dr. susan foster.

She and her father
Were instrumental

In the development
Of robitalian.

Robitalian?

what's that?

Bio-mechanical shock
Troops designed to lead

The first wave of attack
Into the most adverse

Military situations.

Hear that boys,

It looks like we're
About to be replaced.

Figures.

Machines taking
Away more jobs.

Not taking jobs, captain,
Saving lives.

If we had these prototypes
During the gulf war,

We would have cut casualties
By as much as 85 percent.

My father was on his way
Down to australia

To give these machines their
Obedience programming

When his plane went
Down last night.

Does that mean we have
A couple of crazy machines

Wandering around this island
Looking to kill people?

Not crazy,
Very, very smart...

And capable of learning
From their experience.

And being that they're
Equipped with lasers,

Infra-red cameras and a
Rolling arsenal of weapons

They are of course
Incredibly dangerous.

So why don't we go in with
A bunch of heavy ordinance

And just blast
The hell out of 'em.

First, this is not
A mission to destroy...

It's a mission
To retrieve.

Secondly, any ordinance
You could carry

Wouldn't even penetrate
Their armour.

Doctor,

A fifty-millimeter round

From a rocket launch
Will cut through a tank.

A tank maybe,

But not these machines.

We've created a new alloy
From a titanium-cobalt matrix

That is
Literally impervious

To anything short of
A 5,000 pound bomb.

So, doctor, if these
Things are activated,

How the hell do we
Stop them?

Let me show.

screen on, please.

here's what we're
Looking for.

Hey, my kid would love
That for christmas.

Well, it would no doubt
Be his last ...

Unless, of course, you
Also gave him one of these.

...the beta laser rifle.

But it takes a sustained
Shot to cut through

The outer shell and short
Out the interior matrix.

Then what happens?

Then we get these things
Back to the lab and make sure

This never
Happens again.

Alright, gentlemen,
This is it.

Gear it up,

Chopper leaves
In 15 minutes.

Double check weapons.

Good luck.

Thank you, sir.

Did he have any i.d.?

I checked his wallet.

Some kind of doctor.

What's a doctor
Doing way out

In the middle of nowhere?

Making a house call?

more importantly,
Was he alone?

And what was he
Talking about

Turning them off'?

Shut up.

Let's get outta here,

This place gives
Me the creeps.

I'll go check on jack.

When do we fly
Out of here, jack?

We don't.

Rotor transmission
Bracket is cracked.

You gotta be kidding me,
When you landed?

Probably.

You sure it won't fly?

Well, if you want, i can
Get it to spin a little for you.

Can you fix it?

Yeah, all i need's
An arc-welder

And about three days.

You wouldn't happen to
Have a spare one, do you?

That's funny, jack,
Just do what you can.

You know there's
A radio on board,

We could call for help.

The cops, maybe.

Bad idea, jack.

Alright, the chopper's
Out of commission.

Great;

First we get rich,
Now we're gonna die.

Relax, baby,
We'll hike inland.

See what's here.

Maybe we'll find somebody.

Yeah, like maybe
The same person

Who ripped apart
That dead guy.

Dead guy or not, he got
On this island somehow...

Maybe that's our way off?

Jack, c'mon
We're moving out.

If it's all
The same to you,

I'd like to stay behind and try to rig this tranny bracket.

I can't let you near
That radio, jack.

You're coming with us.

You're coming with us.

What about
The money?

give it to me.

Damn.

Stop this thing!!!

help!!!

Well,
There goes our ride.

Our ride?

For chrissakes, roarke,

Is that all that
You can think about?

Shane just
Got ripped apart.

And we're
Probably next.

Relax,

I'll get us out
Of here.

And just how are you gonna
Do that, smart guy?

You can't buy
Or bully your way

Out of this one this time,

Can you?

I'll figure it out!!

Yeah, and how many
People are going to die

before that happens!!!

Shut up, you two...

You hear that?

Look!! look!!!

hey!!

hey!!

We're here.

Would you relax!!

We don't know who they
Are or what they want.

I don't care
Who they are,

They're a way
Off this rock.

Who knows how many of
Those things are roaming

Around this island.

I say we move out.

You up for it, baby?

I'm up for anything
That gets me

Away from you.

Alright,

Alright,

Let's move out.

How about a spare
Pistol for me?

You'll get it when
I think you need it.

Sir, i've got admiral
Harrison on the line for you.

Thank you, captain.

I'll take it
Over here.

So, doc, why send
The helicopter back?

Just a precaution,
Mr. kirby.

Who knows, kirb, maybe
Mr. robot's learning

How to fly a chopper.

Yeah, got
To learn how

To get its fat ass into
The cockpit, though.

alright everybody,
Let's move out.

Cage, you locate
That gps blip yet?

Yeah, it's faint, about
A half-mile that away.

I don't remember
Seeing any wreckage

When we flew
Over that area.

Yeah, it's weird.

Kirby, how's that gun?

Just fine, major.

Ready to fire.

Ladies, gentlemen,
Let's move.

Geeze, anybody bring
Any bug repellent?

Got an insect
Problem, kirb,

I haven't
Noticed any.

They're eatin' me
Alive for chrissakes.

Kirb, take it as
A compliment,

One million flies
Can't be wrong.

Funny man, saunders.

A regular riot.

Hey, shhh!

Major, what
The hell is that?

Looks like an old
Pilot safety tower

Left over from
World war ii.

Yeah, this whole area

Was a hot bed
Of activity back then.

You think there's an
Airstrip on this island, major?

Maybe at one time,

But after sixty
Years of neglect,

I doubt you could
Land a crop duster...

Let alone a 747.

Major,

We got a change
In direction,

This way,
Just north west.

C'mon everybody,
Let's move out.

You alright?

Yeah, i'm fine.

Only that heavenly
Paradise you promised me

Turned into
A living hell.

I'm sorry, it's not
Like i planned this.

You're sorry?

What for exactly?

For getting us here,

For killing that
Guy for no good reason,

Or just being a complete
And utter jerk!!

Will you lay off?

With pleasure.

So, mr. pilot man, where
Do you think we are now?

Well, that chopper we're
Following is u.s. military.

My guess is
This island's some

Top secret compound.

Well that would be just
Our luck, wouldn't it?

Good going, jack.

Great place to land.

Hey, pal, you're still
Breathing aren't you!

Well, shane isn't.

Hold it.

Keep it down.

You hear that?

I think it's coming
From over there.

Come on, come on.

You think
They are after us?

I doubt it.

They don't call in
The army when you

Rob a cruise ship.

Then what are they
Doing then?

They're in scout
Formation,

I can tell you that much.

You think those machines
Belong to them?

Maybe,

Or maybe they're
Lookin' for 'em.

Either way, they
Have a chopper.

I say we go down there
And introduce ourselves.

Maybe bum a ride.

Not so fast, jack.

I say we find that
Chopper ourselves

And you can fly
Us out of here.

Are you nuts?

You think the army's gonna
Leave a chopper like that

Laying around without
Posting a guard.

Yeah, you let me
Worry about that?

Look, you so much as
Shoot a garter snake

and you can fly that thing
Outta here by yourself.

Big talk, pal, especially
Coming from an accessory

To grand theft.

That's right, big talk,
And i'm going down

To talk to those
Guys right now.

No, you're not!

No, roarke.

Go ahead, shoot me.

In the back
If you'd like.

You'll never get
Off this island.

I'm with him.

You look like you could
Use a break, doc.

I'll be okay, sergeant,
We gotta keep moving.

You really must
Want those machines

Of yours pretty bad.

That's correct.

There's a great potential
For disaster here.

How's that possible?

This island's deserted.

That won't stop them
From trying to get off,

If they've been
Activated.

Alright,

You win, jacko.

I thought you'd see
It my way, jungle boy.

Roarke, what
About the money?

Just be cool and let
Me do the talking.

This ought to be good.

My god!

Would you look
At that!

Dad!!

Doc, come on!

You said yourself

This could be a very
Volatile situation,

So let's calm down and take
This one step at a time.

I'm sorry, major,
I...a...just..

No need to explain,

I'm just do this
Right, okay?

Kirby,
Get that gun ready.

Yes, sir.

Alright, everybody.

Move slow.

Doctor,
Stay behind us.

Just in case.

But, major...

Please.

Let's go.

Major, are you getting
The same vibe

About this as i am?

I think so.

This plane didn't
Crash here.

No.

No fire trail.

No broken trees.

No sign of impact.

This plane was dragged
Here and hidden.

I was kind of hoping this
Was gonna be a cake walk.

Hold it.

Doc, i believe your
Mechanical warriors

Are up and
Running already.

This hull
Shouldn't be here.

And begging the major's
Pardon, sir,

Neither should we.

Stow it, soldier.

I don't understand.

It's obvious to me that
This plane

Didn't come down here.

Something dragged it
Here deliberately.

My god!!

Dad.

Dad!!

Ricks, stay here.

Dad!

Easy, doc, easy.

Cage, take
Her back outside.

No, i've got
To find my father.

Kirby, go upstairs
And check out the cockpit.

Yes, sir.

Anything, doc?

Anything?

No.

My father's not here.

Neither is dr. trent.

They could still
Be alive somewhere.

No, you can't
Go out there alone.

If they survived
Somehow, we'll find him,

I promise you.

Okay.

My god, marion.

Doc, you don't
Have to see

This stuff right now,
Come on.

I can't go.

There's too much
At stake here.

Major, i think
You were right.

I think those robots

Were activated during
Flight somehow.

I think they managed

To bring down this jet
And landed it as well.

That's impossible.

No, it's not.

I helped create
Those things.

You see these wires,

they've been
Stripped clean,

Almost surgically.

Why the hell would
They do that?

Hey, maybe they needed
Some spare parts.

Yeah, but what for?

God only knows,

But i can assure
You of this,

They are trying
To build something.

Major,

Two dead in
The cockpit,

Blood everywhere...and..

And what..?

Well, it's kind of odd,

All the wires and
Equipment's been gutted.

Nothing's left
But the seats.

Major, we got company.

Kirby, get
His weapon!

Yes, sir!

check the others!!

Who the hell
Are you people?

What are you
Doing here?

We're on a film scout.

A film scout.

With guns?

Hey, we were told there
Were wild boar

On this island.

Why take chances.

How the hell'd
You get here?

By chopper.

You have a helicopter.

Where is it?

Lady, i wish i knew.

About two hours ago it got
Carried off by a couple

Of things till now
Existed only in my nightmares.

So you've seen them.

Where?

About an hour's
Walk that way.

No, i'm not going
Back there

To show you the way,

So don't even ask.

Did you see
Anything else?

Any possible survivors?

Yeah, we did.

Some guy...just after
We ditched in the storm.

Where is he?

He was hurt pretty bad,
He died last night.

We buried him
This morning.

Did he tell you
Anything, a name,

Anything at all?

No, but we found
A wallet with i.d. though,

A dr. trent.

Major, if dr. trent
Somehow managed

To survive that crash,

My father could still
Be alive somewhere.

As i said, we'll do our
Best to find him,

But it's a big island and those
Machines aren't going to make

Searching any easier.

If they have
A helicopter,

We've got to find it and
Destroy it as soon as possible.

Why is that?

Because if those robots
Have enough time,

They could customize that
Aircraft with parts

From the jet and could
Be off this island

In short order.

You don't think they could
Really do that, do you?

One of those things coming
Down in a populated area

Could kill thousands,

Tens of
Thousands of people.

Get down!!!

Come on back!

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Saunders!!

Kirby look out!!

Come on!!

Come on!!

How is he?

Can't tell.

Definitely going
In shock.

We gotta get him
Outta here now!

What about
The laser gun?

We don't have that get out
Of jail free card anymore.

Let's go.

get him up!

Where is it?

Why didn't it
Come after us?

I don't know.

Any ideas, doc?

It seemed more
Preoccupied

By whatever was in the
Plane than it was with us.

What would it
Want in the plane?

Sir.

You said you had to ditch
Your helicopter last night.

What was wrong
With it?

A broken rotor, why?

That's why it didn't
Continue the attack.

It wasn't coming
After us.

It was trying to replace
That broken rotor.

We just happened
To get in the way.

You mean...

It's building a way
Off this island...

Any word from
The team, admiral?

It's only been four hours
Since their last transmission.

Well, i need some sort of
Update to give the president.

I wouldn't advise it.

you could jeopardize
The mission.

How so?

Well before she left,
Dr. foster told us

To minimize radio contact.

I don't understand.

Sir, if these robots
Were to be activated,

They could easily detect
Our frequencies

And triangulate the team's
Exact position.

I see.

Well, admiral, may i remind
You that if we've not heard

From them by 0700 tomorrow
Your time,

You know the orders.

I'm well aware.

Keep me posted.

He's fading into a coma.

I can't do very
Much for him here.

So let's take
Him back home.

With what?

We were dropped off.

The huey's back
At the carrier.

That's just great,

This just gets better
And better all the time.

Then may i suggest
You radio for help.

You can suggest it
But the radio's with ricks,

and they're both gone.

Without that satellite
Link up we're cut off.

And the chopper
Coming back when?

They're not!

If they don't hear
Back from us

That the robots
Been neutralized,

They're going
To assume the worst.

And what exactly
Is 'the worst?'

If my superiors don't
Hear back from me

By 0700 tomorrow,
They're gonna nuke this

Little garden spot
Into eternity.

That's just
Great, that's wonderful.

So when do we
Start swimming then?

So what you're telling us
Is that we need my chopper

As much as those
God damn machines.

Absolutely right,
Mr. hansen.

Well, then i suggest we
Go get that chopper back.

And fight
Those machines?!

That's crazy!

No, i'm staying put!

You do whatever
You want, sweetheart;

I hear radiation gives
You a nice even tan.

That's just great,
That's wonderful,

So we have two choices

We fry or get torn apart by
Those overgrown can openers.

I suggest we go back
To where you guys landed.

And we begin
To search there.

What about your
Man, saunders?

Who's gonna carry him?

No one.

He's dead.

Okay, we'll bury
Him here and move out.

Well, this is it.

Home, sweet, home.

How do you know that?

The grave over there
We were telling you about.

They could be
Anywhere by now.

I hate to bring up
The obvious,

But what do we do
If we do find them?

Without the laser rifles
There is no way to stop them.

There might be.

I know it's a long shot,

But there's a
Small photo-synthetic pad

On the upper surface
That commutes

ultra-violet rays
Into energy.

It's about two inches
In diameter

Covered by
A small red grating.

If someone could get close
Enough to get a shot

Into that pad,

It would paralyze
Their motor-sensory system

And blow the core.

Where exactly
Is this thing?

Just above their
Visual ports.

So what you're saying is
Right between the eyes.

For all intents
And purposes, yes.

Well, if we're do it,

Let's do it, 'cause
It's gonna rain.

Yeah, looks like we're
In for another big one.

To save some time,

I suggest we break
Up into groups of two

And meet back
Here in an hour.

Sounds fine to me.

If you find the chopper,
Stay low, stay quiet,

And get back here.

I don't want anybody to
Be a hero, understand?

Cage, go with hansen.

Doc, you're with me.

and you two...

Watch out for
The wild boar.

excuse me, general,

We just received a transmission
From the conroy.

Admiral harrison reports a
Tropical storm, category 2

And getting stronger,

headed straight
For that island.

As if they didn't
Have enough problems.

Did they make their
12 hour report?

Still no contact, sir.

They could be staying
Silent to avoid detection

But it's hard to say.

Notify me immediately of
Any change in status.

Yes, sir.

Hey, fly boy.

Yeah.

Just exactly who are
You people anyway?

You heard the story.

Yeah, right,
Film scout,

Hell of a per diem.

Where did you get that?

When your buddy, roarke
Went to take a leak,

I took the liberty of doing a security check on his luggage.

Must be over a million
Bucks in there.

More like two.

Are you the military
Advisor on this movie.

It's from a robbery.

I gathered that.

Nice haul.

I was just hired
To fly the helicopter.

You must come cheap,

You are
Ex-military, right?

Not many civilians could run and grab saunders like that.

Yeah, i used to fly
Gun ships in the gulf war,

Somalia, some other stuff.

Okay, it's an old story,
Good soldier goes bad,

Let me guess,

You punched your
C.o., got drummed out,

Then took off
For the islands.

Close.

Very close.

Then you started a little
Charter business,

Times get tough,
You go broke,

And some crooks offered you
A hand out, you take it.

How am i doing?

What are you?

A god damn psychic?

That's what
They tell me.

Well, you're not,

'Cause you don't
Know it all.

You know, doc,

There's an old chinese
Proverb that says

The weight of pain is
Lessened when shared by two.

Major, i'm surprised.

A military man like yourself
Reading the i ching.

I think it was a fortune
Cookie i got offered,

To tell you the truth.

Nevertheless, i thank you
And my name is susan.

Susan.

I'm richard.

Pleasure.

Your name suits you,

But your line of work
Certainly doesn't.

Well, when we started
Working on this project,

The idea was
Saving lives.

When was that?

I guess it
Was the late '60s.

My dad was
Stationed in viet nam.

He witnessed the deaths of
Hundreds of young soldiers

Thrust in the most
Horrific confrontations.

Still happening today,
Let me tell ya.

Well, he had
A vision.

A robotic first-line
Of defense,

It would not only
Prevent casualties

But almost certainly
Discourage

Any kind of
Aggressive attack.

The perfect soldier?

Technology finally
Caught up with his vision

And we were able to
Create the first

Two prototypes with
Funding from the sic.

Senate intelligence
Committee?

I take it they're not
High on your list.

Men in suits telling men
In uniform what to do.

No, i don't like that.

Democracy in action.

They rushed us into
Production to meet some

Trumped up deadline.

We should have had more
Time for testing,

Putting in more failsafes.

Now look what's happened.

Yeah, your perfect
Soldier's gone awol.

Run, baby run!!!

Show time.

Hey boss!

Do you know how to
Use one of these?

Roger that!

Stay here.

Don't move.

Roarke!! watch out!!

Can't get a shot.

Need something heavy!!

Hey, the bazooka.

What the hell was
That all about?

Maybe he went
To get umbrella.

C'mon, let's
Check on roarke.

Stay with me, honey.

Stay with me.

It's okay, baby.

You're gonna make it.

You gotta help him.

He's hurt bad.

Move over,
Just a little bit.

Well, do something!!

It's too late,
Nothing we can do.

Yes, you can,

Listen to me, honey,
Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

No!!

Come here.

Come here.

Can you hear me, honey?

Can you hear me, baby?

No, no, no.

No, no, no.

Rough luck.

With all that money,

He could probably
Afford health care.

Stow it, cage.

Major!

I thought i
Told you to stay put.

I did, until one of the
Robots walked right by.

I know that it saw me,

but it kept
Right on going.

which tells me

there is something more important than killing us.

Did you see
Which way it went?

Not exactly,

I know it went down
Into a little valley

About a half mile
From where i was standing.

Can you show us?

Not a problem.

Good, that's probably where
They've took the chopper.

It'll be dark soon,
Let's get moving.

Cage, hansen,
Help the girl up.

We'll come back
For him later.

Yes, sir.

We got to move,
We got to go.

Go below deck,
Fasten those choppers down,

The storms
Going to get worse.

No, general, they missed
Their second scheduled contact.

We haven't
Heard word one.

Nor has our sister ship.

Then i suggest you
Scramble an f-18

And take that
Place out right now.

Wait a minute, general,

this weather could be

running havoc with
Their communications.

They have
At least ten hours.

These are good men
In a tight situation.

Let's at least give
Them the benefit.

Under ordinary
Circumstances,

I'd be inclined
To agree with you,

But the situation
Here is perilous.

If those machines
Become sentient

Before their
Restrictive programming,

There's no telling
The damage they could do

If they make it
Off that island.

General, i understand the
Gravity of the situation,

however the president
Gave us

until 0700 tomorrow
To finish the job.

I want you
To honor that order

And honor those men

Who are risking their
Lives in the field

To complete this mission.

Very well, admiral,

We'll adhere to
The original time schedule;

But if we haven't heard
Anything by 0700 your time,

I want that
Island pulverized.

Yes, sir.

It all looks so
Different in the dark.

I can't be sure.

Okay, doc,
Take your time.

That's it,
It's the way.

Are you sure?

Yeah, i am.

Keep moving.

Major, that girl's pretty
Messed up back there.

I'm aware of that, cage.

I'm thinking she might
Become a liability, sir.

You okay?

Yeah, i'm great.

For what it's worth,

I'm sorry about
Your boyfriend.

Yeah.

Hey, check that out.

Hey, a cave.

Great, if we don't find
'Em, we can at least stay dry

Till the big weenie roast
In the morning.

I'm sorry, i was positive
This was the right path.

It's okay, doc, we'll
Just go back a bit

And start again.

Come on.

Look up there!

It's gotta be them.

C'mon, let's go check
It out up there.

And remember,
Everybody stay low.

Wait a minute.

I'm not
Going anywhere.

You guys can do what you
Want, but i'm staying put.

Listen, miss,
You're a civilian,

So i can't make
This an order,

But i strongly suggest
You start snapping out of it

you don't stand
A chance out there

against those things alone.

Those things aren't
My problem anymore

They're yours.

they're everybody's
Problem, lady;

And i'm not gonna
Risk our safety

So you can go trekking'
Out there alone.

you got it!

C'mon, sweetie,
It'll be okay.

Come on.

Okay, what the hell
Are they doing?

Messin' with my chopper
That's what they're doing.

I doubt it, mr. hansen.

If anything, they're
Improving it

For greater maneuverability.

What's the other
One up to?

I don't know.
I can't see.

Then i got one
Question for ya.

What's that?

How are those
Oversize beer cans

Gonna get in it
And fly it outta here?

He's got a point,

If their gonna
Fit in that cockpits...

What are they doing
To it?

What's this now?

What happened?

Did you think
They heard us?

I don't think so.

They're getting
Mighty friendly.

In a way they are.

They're sharing
Energy information.

God, i didn't think
This was possible.

This is truly amazing.

Cage, you think
You can get a shot?

Damn patches are so small,
I need them to turn this way.

Well, don't fire unless you
Know you got it for sure.

yes, major.

What's it doing now?

I don't know, this is
Way beyond my knowledge.

Look!

Nooooooooooooooooo!

nooooooooooooooooo!

nooooooooooooooooo!

Cage! take that
Thing out!

nooooooooooooooooo!

No! don't kill him!

nooooooooooooooooo!

No! don't kill him!

No! don't kill him!

nooooooooooooooooo!

nooooooooooooooooo!

Cage, do it.

nooooooooooooooooo!

No! don't kill him!

nooooooooooooooooo!

nooooooooooooooooo!

Nooooooooooooooooo!

What happened?
Did we get them both?

Quiet.

So where's big daddy?

Maybe he got lucky
And ran off.

Not a chance.

It's probably
Waiting for us

To make a move
On that chopper.

Yeah, you're right,
Why go looking

When you've got
The perfect bait.

I have to admit that
Copter looks pretty good

To me right now.

I hope i can still fly it after
They've been messing with it.

God knows what they could
Have done to the controls.

Major, what
Are we gonna do?

Hansen, you were pretty good
With that rifle back there.

You think you could
Do it again?

Yeah, no problem.

Good, 'cause cage and i
Are gonna go down there

Try to draw
This thing out.

See if we can
Get it facing you

If we can,
Your deal is

to hit that patch
And take it out.

you get that, soldier.

Yes, sir.

Good.

Where's the doc?

Just over there.

I don't think she's
Doing too good.

Excuse me, gentlemen,
I'll be right back.

Susan, i'm sorry.

But i had no choice.

I know.

This is something dad
Always half-joked about.

What's that?

That the servant one day
Would become the master,

And the master,
Eventually, the slave.

Cage and i are going
Back down there.

You stay here with jack,
You'll be in good hands.

Okay.

You ready
To move out?

Yes, sir.

Good luck.

Okay, so what now?

My guess, when we
Go out there,

That thing's gonna step
Out and say hello.

That's a good guess.

So what are we
Going to do?

You still got that
Flare gun on you?

Yeah.

Let's shed some
Light on the subject.

Here she comes.

C'mon you bastard, turn.

What's the matter?

Can't get a clean shot.

It's not taking the bait.

Cage, get
Outta there!!!!

Ahhhhhh!!!

Tunney, get the hell
Out, it's no use.

Doc, go for
That cave we found.

Move!

Sorry, major,
I couldn't get the shot.

Forget about it
It's not your fault.

I sent the doc
Back to the cave.

Let's move out.

so doc,

Yeah.

You think this thing
Will come after us?

Yesterday, i would have
Thought it was impossible,

But i believe the robot's
Reasoning matrix

May have evolved way
Beyond our expectations

So what you're saying here
Is that this thing might be

After a little revenge.

You took out its companion,

You ruined its plan
To get off the island, yeah.

The bigger question is,

What the hell do we do?

It's already 0400.

If we don't get our
Collective asses

Off this rock
In three hours,

It doesn't matter if
It finds us or not.

Well, if it's
Out hunting us,

It can't be guarding
The chopper.

We don't know
That for sure.

There's only one
Way to find out.

Wait, wait, wait!

You guys saw what
Happened yesterday.

Even if you do
Manage to engage it,

We don't have the fire
Power to defeat it.

Wait a minute.

We got all
The power we need.

What are you thinking?

The lightning.

What are you saying?

The thing's made
Of metal, right?

A highly resilient cobalt
Alloy, but, yeah, it's metal.

Well, lets turn it into
One big lightning rod.

Yeah, let's let
Mother nature fry it.

What do you say, doc?

It's just crazy
Enough to work.

What's your plan?

Remember that old pilot tower
We saw on the way in here?

Yeah.

It's the highest
Place on the island.

Let's try luring
It up there.

It's worth a try.

One good bolt of
Lightning could take it

Out for good.

What the hell
Are we waiting for?

It's 0500 on that island
General and still no word

From tunney or his team.

Still bad conditions?

Heavy storm action, sir.

It's not about to
Let up either.

God help them.

General,

Do you think should we
Move up the strike?

We probably should,

But i made a commitment
To those people

And i'm going
To stand by it.

Yes, sir.

Just notify me when
The bomb is scrambled.

I'll call direct
From intel.

Ready?

Got my running shoes on.

Let's do it.

C'mon, you bastard!!!!

Go!

Go for the patch.

I'm trying.

It ain't easy.

Forget it, let's go.

That thing knows what
We're trying to do!!

Let's go!!

Forget it, we'll try
Again at the top!!

Alright.

Doc!!

Hey doc,
Where are you?!!

I'm over here!!

They still okay?

Yeah.

Still dry, wish i
Could say the same.

Where's the robot?

Right behind us.

Okay, doc.

Here's the detonator.

Go in that shed and push
The button when it's time.

How will i know
When it's time?

You'll know when
It's time,

Just go!!

Here it comes.

Let's go!!

Come on,
You son of a bitch!

Blow it!!

Ha! ha!!

Are you sure
We killed it?

Yeah, it's dead.

Okay, people,
It's getting light.

We got just less than an hour
To get it to the chopper

And get the hell
Outta here.

Come on!

Ordinance is in
The air, general.

I'm sorry, admiral.

I'm truly sorry.

Damn it, there they
Are right on time, 0700.

There's the chopper.

C'mon,
We can make it.

Let's go, go, go!!!

What's the matter?!

Damn robots screwed
Up the entire panel.

Did they
Fix the rotor?

Yeah, but i still
Can't get it started.

If you've got any ideas,
Jack, now's the time.

I'll try hot-wiring
It from the outside.

Hang on, this
Might be bad.

Yes!

Yes!!

Let's go!

Copy that,
We've got you on...

Roger, that conroy,

We're 20 minutes out

From your
Current positions.

Well, major,
We're expected.

Great.

Dry clothes and
A solid meal.

That's something those machines
Could never appreciate.

They'll be
Back, major.

Another lab,
Another day.

You can't change
What will be.

Well, you sure
Can try.
