What Is ‘Self Driver’ About?
In this futuristic thriller, a tech genius develops a self-driving car with advanced AI. When the car goes rogue, it leads to a high-stakes battle between man and machine. The film delves into the ethical implications of AI and the potential dangers of autonomous technology.
And it does a good job.
Though obviously exaggerated, the app feels grounded in reality and similar to the technology we already have.
The film wouldnt work without Chadwick, who excellently carries this film.

At times, it feels reminiscent ofSquid Games memorable music.
(Would you pull the lever to kill a stranger and secure your family?
Would you hit a stranger to feed them?).
It all begins feeling a bit cluttered and random, falling into cliches of other, lessercrime thrillers.
I, for one, cant wait to see what destinations Pierro and Chadwick drive to in the future.
Self Driverhad its North American Premiere at the 2024 Fantasia Film Festival.
