Nice film for youngsters. I enjoyed it as a adult watch it knowing what it is. And you may just enjoy it. Not for some but for most that have a open mind.

The robot is cute but the villains though kinda weak for me. They have this cool mercenary guy but doesn't seem they use it right. They made him to look scary but that's it. No funny fight or escaping scene. Just some tough talks. The mad scientist guy was mad though.

Whereas my 11yo laught at the plot, fx, dialogs and attention to details.

Short Circuit, meets D.A.R.Y.L., meets Chappie, was never going to work without a decent original script, decent actors and, decent special effects. One of the reviews sums it up completely. Their children were in it, gives a whole new meaning to "family movie".

The movie had lots of promise but was undelivered. The cheap sets and substandard acting, let the movie down. Plus the more you get to know A.R.I., the more unrealistic he becomes - not that an AI robot with child like qualities is realistic to begin with. Having said that, the design of A.R.I. is surprisingly nicely done. Very likeable character with a suitable voice to suit. But from time to time the CGI is made obvious compared to the quality of the background. Or rather the overlapping of the CGI over real images does not match well. There is some style-ist violence, so parental guidance is recommended for viewing for the much younger audiences.

There is very little in this for adults Kids seem to enjoy the robot. The acting is second rate The plot is second rate The sound is ok The animation is ok its fine to keep the kids busy for 90 mins

Sometimes you just got to accept the predictability for what you know the film is about.

Within 30 seconds it reeked of cheap. First, the dialogue was the most juvenile of pretend science, and would easily fail middle school science. Second, overused effects found in all cheap sci movies such as large electrical (lightning wannabes) discharges to create a cheap wow effect. Third, the usual evil/bad corporate head out to create a weaponized robot - so non-creatively & overused a plot hook it's embarrassing. Fourth, the usual teen nerds (lately to be gender neutral in movies there's a female co-nerd; the only thing missing was a minority representation). Fifth, also done many times before is the search for the "lost" robot creator. Saving grace an extra star for the puppy cute robot.
