04/29/2015 Quatro histórias de robôs integrados ao dia a dia banal das pessoas. A primeira história é a mais impactante: uma mulher precisa aprender a cuidar de um robô bebê para receber um bebê de verdade se provar sua capacidade. See more 02/21/2013 some clever ideas. low budget, but worth a look. See more 05/12/2012 Not a bad little film, but that's about all that stands out. See more 03/04/2012 I like stories about robots. That being said, that isn't a story about robots. It's four stories about robots. This makes it seem more like watching a marathon of a television show than a movie. One story I liked "Machine Love", one story I didn't like "The Robot Fixer" and the other two were average. See more 02/08/2012 4 different stories, 1 movie. I only liked 2 but the concepts of all are interesting and all of them are well acted. See more 12/04/2011 Rather than making one really good short film, director Greg Pak decided to film all four of his robot-themed short stories and compile them into one film. The first story, My Robot Baby, follows a couple as they take home a robot baby to show they are responsible enough to handle a real one. It's not a bad concept for a robot-themed film, and is a plausible scenario that will be familiar to anyone who had to take care of an egg for a sex ed class. As it turns out, the robot baby looks quite a bit like a football-sized egg with cardboard eyes stuck onto it. Despite the cheesy props the story does contain some interesting ideas, like when the robot's "mother" reprograms the bot so that it automatically takes care of itself. Unfortunately the concept was better explored and in much greater detail in Steven Spielberg's A.I., and it quickly dissolves into a silly suspense film when the baby robot runs amok late at night. The second story, The Robot Fixer, isn't really about robots at all. A distraught mother is visiting her comatose son, who has been hit by a car. While cleaning up his apartment, she and her daughter find his collection of robot toys. The mother decides to complete her son's collection in a symbolic bid to put her son back together. By the time this one was over I was ready to stop watching this turd, so I did. This review is a repost from my website: www.plasticpals.com See more Read all reviews
