Even before reading the synopsis of this movie you already know that it is going to be about machines going crazy and people being in danger.
Some of the things in this movie were taken right out of I, Robot, like how the colour of the visible light on the robot changed from nice blue or green to ominous red.
*****Serious Spoilers Here***** The acting in this went from VERY VERY bad to mediocre and a good part of that I blame on the director and the writer.
So, here's the premise, you're playing a nice game of soccer or football as our Brit friends would say, with a robot on one of the teams and the robot shoots and kills one of your friends, what do you do? You don't panic but you immediately check on your friend to see if he's alive and maybe someone pulls out his cell and calls for help, right? WRONG, at least according to the script for this movie. Everybody stands around looking at the robot and down at their dead friend and then they just walk away. Can almost hear them saying, "Damn, Frank was such a nice guy, too. Too bad about him dying like that. Anyone think that perhaps his wife might be annoyed with us?" Oh, and let's not forget the main actors for this movie. The "news crew" also just stands around looking at the scene. They keep the cameras rolling of course but do they bother to try and do anything? NOPE. The robot eventually walks away from the situation and the main news reporter (who just graduated from medical school) gets a little closer to the man that's down and stays cool, calm and collected as she pronounces him DEAD. Check for a pulse? Nah, why would you want to do that, might get some blood on you or wreck the nail job you got yesterday.
Seriously, did anyone even bother to THINK before they put some of these scenes together? It goes downhill from there. If you do NOT pass on this one, you can't say I didn't warn you.
