AfrAId was slightly disappointing. The story was solid and it posed a bunch of really good questions regarding artificial intelligence.
The part that has me in turmoil over the grade was the role of Meredith. (Katherine Waterston) I would love some feedback on what you Runpeeps think. She felt out of place to me. She had no chemistry with any of the other actors and seemed distracted.

It’s a super short movie so the pace is great, they didn’t stick in any filler stuff, it was straight storytelling.
I took my granddaughter and asked her what grade she’d give it, she said an A. It scared her and made her question the usage of AI. She doesn’t care about acting and style, she’s all about the story. So they nailed it for her. (She’s 11) I was more so thinking a C. If it weren’t for the distraction of Meredith I’d say a B.
All in all, I think anyone under 17 will love it and anyone over 17 will be slightly more critical. Again, it does pose great questions and makes you think.
Grade: C+
About The Peetimes: After seeing this movie it became clear the Peetime I submitted was the only safe time to go. The actual movie is only 76 minutes long, luckily my Peetime is about half way through it.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of AfrAId.

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Best app ever!
RunPee is the only app we use before movies and afterward. not only does RunPee tell you when it’s a good time to leave the theater, kids these days ask if there’s anything during/after the credits, and RunPee lets parents know when there might be some thing that a kid might miss!
RunPee has tidbits, ratings, leave the theater times, and lengths. This is THE VITAL APP for watching any movie!
We used it when my wife was pregnant, and we have recommended it to every pregnant gal we know! How else can you enjoy a movie when you have to go out so often?!
