      Teo Bugbee New York Times Like many of the young inventors she documents, Jacobs has created a project that doesn’t fall apart at first touch. But her film doesn’t meet the mark for excellence, either. Mar 17, 2022 Full Review Kimberley Jones Austin Chronicle More Than Robots’ raison d'être may be the uplift of science and engineering, but there’s a worthy civics lesson to be had there too. Mar 16, 2022 Full Review Jennifer Green Common Sense Media This well-meaning documentary offers an inspiring glimpse into the world of teen robotics teams and will certainly have its niche, but general audiences may find it slightly long. Rated: 3/5 Apr 11, 2022 Full Review Kevin Carr Fat Guys at the Movies If it encourages anybody to get involved in STEM, that's good. Because we need more people trying to make out there trying to make the world a better place rather than people trying to destroy each other's robots on the battlefield. Rated: 3/4 Mar 25, 2022 Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net I always seem to enjoy these genius kid documentaries and this one is no exception! Rated: 6/10 Mar 24, 2022 Full Review Peter Martin DallasFilmNow.com Serves as a lovely testament to the better side of humanity. Mar 18, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
