Michael O'Sullivan Washington Post The relationship between Alex and Eva is sweet, and it grounds the film, even if certain secrets about it are telegraphed by the script. Rated: 3/4 Mar 12, 2015 Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times If the ending feels a little dismaying somehow, that's only because the film has done a good job of making you care about its characters, human and otherwise. Mar 12, 2015 Full Review Farran Smith Nehme New York Post The final scenes are so good, even moving, that they make the earlier stuff look better. But a film concerned with the nature of emotion needs human engagement throughout. Rated: 2/4 Mar 11, 2015 Full Review Pat Padua DCist Eva had me at the robotic cat. Aug 31, 2018 Full Review M. Faust The Public (Buffalo) It's melodramatic stuff with a needlessly grim ending in which the subject of artificial intelligence is merely a Macguffin. Oct 17, 2017 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue ... employs some solid effects and introduces some intriguing concepts but generally relegates the science to the background in favor of human drama that's not as compelling or surprising.

Audience Member I'ven seen this movie before, it was great. The story, graphics, everything about it is delightful. A 33% from these "top critics" shows they have fallen out of touch with what makes a good movie Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Great film about AI, responsibility, and being. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member CG/effects were amazingly well done. Plot was predictable. Didn't make you care about any of the characters. First movie I've seen in Castilian--they talk so fast! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Renowned robot maker Alex (Daniel Bruhl) is hired to create a robot boy, with the same playfulness of an actual child but with the danger level toned down, and he befriends the child of his two colleagues David and Lana (Alberto Ammann and Marta Etura), who proves herself to be an excellent, if not flawless, model for this robot. What can go wrong from here? A love trite-angle that a team of FOUR screenwriters said was a sensible inclusion. No, no, no. Despite this hackneyed trope's role in "developing" both plot and characters, it ultimately did not dampen the most affecting moments of the movie. Alex's character especially intrigued me, as such a heavily praised genius *SPOILERS* ends up being a monumental failure -- as an engineer, as a lover, and as a father. Kike Maillo's direction can be questionable at times, like following such a cluelessly intense opening with an hour and a half of nothing too crazy at all, and the writers missed out on great opportunities for establishing sub-themes in understanding the true nature of children. However, there are hardly any sub-plots, as Alex really is the central character in every scene; as a simple character study in a hardly compromised future, Eva succeeds. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member watched it coz of Daniel Brühl I guess and coz its Sci-fi. Story is you can pretty much stalk anyone and be OK in Spain. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member it's one of the best HardSciFi of this decade. good regie, characters, scenes. It has a scent of sophistication and it's warm and snug. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
