WEEK 28: A MOVIE WITH A ROBOT, CYBORG OR A.I. CHARACTER

Description: Human race is at edge of te end. Robot race is at edge of the beginning.

Review: In the year 2044, only twenty million souls live on a largely scorched earth. However, robots have joined them, doing all kinds of chores. Robot rules dictate that they don’t mess with people or themselves, but as it goes, some robots develop a drive of their own.

A movie I think is better then most people say it is. Great set design and an interesting story. It has some really strong scenes and Antonio Banderas is pretty good in his role. The flaw remains that the film limps between two minds: robot rebellion and family man worries. And that’s one thought too many.

Rating: 3 / 5
