Robots Movie Review

At the end of this movie, I kept thinking what monument will be built to remember “Rodney” who was a champion “For all old and outdated robots?”

From a wealthy robot’s point of view—poor commoners—they’ll never be able to overthrow us.  We own them, their media, everything.  We’re the reasons they have paychecks.  We’re rich because we work and think ten times as hard—or for the lucky ones—inherit ten times as much—so the thinking may sometimes falls through the cracks and can’t distinguish the difference between good and bad cronies!

From the Commoner’s point of view—yeah, Rodney!  We love you!  Our leader!  Together we can storm the “castle” and remind the powerful robots in them that we’ve had enough!  We’ll continue being like Rodney’s dad and do the dishwashing and be the “worker bees,” but up to a point.  Rodney!  We’ll follow you!  If you want us to cause civil disobedience instead, we will!  Your monument will stand next to Gandhi!

--This initial reaction to this movie may seem a bit stretched, because after all, it is a kid’s movie.  Sometimes it can’t be helped and an adult spin needs to be added to it.

Go see this visually beautiful movie with its "why be you when you can be new" storyline.  There are many things about the movie to take with you.
