Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
TheBlueHairedLawyer Robots has flawless and detailed animation, excellent voice acting from all characters, and decent-enough soundtrack... so why am I only rating it 5/10? Well, it's the huge level of crude humor, which takes over the whole movie to the point where it just gets disgusting and stupid. If you're an adult and you love crude humor, sex jokes and fart noises, well by all means that's your decision. But this is listed as a kid's movie, and no matter how you want to raise your children and what you allow them to see, there were things in this movie that were certainly not appropriate for its intended audience.Right away, Robots starts off with a few "baby-making" jokes (you'll see what I mean if you decide to watch it). I'm not some kind of prude, many movies have one or two crude humor jokes in them, but Robots takes it WAY too far as it goes on, from "Aunt Phanny" (an obese robot who constantly passes gas) to repeated scenes of a dog trying to take a leak on a fire hydrant.It's really too bad, because Robin Williams really did a great voice job, as did Jim Broadbent (who surprisingly voiced a female character!) and it did have some funny moments, such as the scene where the ugly old antagonist gives her son a photo for his desk at work, a photograph of her framed in a plastic pink heart shape with the words, "world's best mom" on the top.I think that Robots had a ton of potential, but sadly this is one of those movies that just got wrecked with nasty, pervy jokes and fart noises. I can't honestly say I could ever recommend it to anybody.
Gary Williams (wild-45-770536) The story is not bad, a robot world with heroes, sidekicks and dastardly villains. I had hoped for more meaningful animation. The heroes look like junk and the villains look like bad jokes. Most of the best bits were stolen from other movies and music. Did any of the bots have a purpose? Lots of famous voices overshadowed by Robin Williams' obnoxious over the top performance. Lots of potential squashed by dopey design and half baked concept. I blame the writers and director but there was so much gone wrong that the producer has to shoulder much of this failure. Let's chalk it up to poor execution and shoddy oversight to let this abomination see the light of day. It is easy to compare this to "Meet The Robinson's" but the comparison is far from fair. Let's just say that if you like this, your standards are very low and please see more quality animation where story meets art and characters like Dory and Rusty teach us entertaining lessons.
hayashimegumi Robots (2005) is a visually pleasing and entertaining film. It is quite artsy but generally robots and androids lovers will like this! It sets in an entirely mechanical world, where each and every robot is unique in their own ways. This film, the second by Blue Sky Studios is certainly way way way finer than the first Ice Age film. They should have been rewarded a most improved studio kind of award!I loved the concept and visuals, it is quite entertaining to watch as a whole as it is mechanically gorgeous but in terms of story and character creations, it is a little...lacking. For example, I did not know there was a specific love interest for the main character until I read up on it cause I don't see any obvious chemistry or hint. *lol* Nonetheless, the film does have an inspiring message and there are some scenes in the film that left me dumbfounded; their version of baby making is hilarious and the fast paced Robot City's cross town express is surely epic. Hence, don't be fooled by the movie poster; the animation is much vivider and livelier than it looks. At first I thought it might be boring but boy, I was wrong!
brassduke When it comes to wise-asses at Blue Sky Studios, i highly doubt this film is general enough for kids aged 5-12, This might be a bit of a spoiler, but i did see rather inappropriate scenes, some of the characters have a huge bum and say 'Crap', We see someone s*** themselves, they fart their heart out, they pull their pants down, and of course it has very unreliable violence. I Know Wedge and Saldanha are doing whatever they can to fulfil their destiny, but i don't at all find their films funny, I'm determined to watch Rio (2011) later this year and of course Epic (2013) Next Year, but i'm beginning to hate this film, It's nowhere near general, I Agree with it having a PG but i'm a little unaware of it's ideas, Such as an obese robot creating everything, or maybe even a dishwasher for a father, It's Crazy!And if your watching this Wedge (Or Saldanha, i don't mind) I will prosecute you both, i apologise for your wacky ideas and 'Ice Age' Triumph, BTW Congrats on the Oscar for 'Bunny' ^^
