Quite an interesting article, perhaps a bit harsh. I think I will enjoy Transcendence still. It's about suspension of disbelief, but yes stories can be good or bad.

The author criticised B movies, but at the end he ended up sounding like he was going to write one.

And if his auto correct is doing that much work, well that is hard to believe.
