Henry G he Electric State (2025) is a visually stunning sci‑fi adventure that offers a heartfelt journey through a post‑robot uprising America. Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and starring Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, the film blends retro‑futuristic nostalgia with emotional exploration. 🎥 Visual Spectacle Meets Emotional Core The attention to world‑building and special effects is nothing short of remarkable. The robot designs, war‑scarred landscapes, and neon‑tinged 1990s aesthetic transport you into Simon Stålenhag’s imaginative world—seamlessly bringing his iconic illustrations to life raeserbeck.com +8 taipeitimes.com +8 reddit.com +8 slashfilm.com +9 en.wikipedia.org +9 hablemosmoney.com +9 . ❤️ Strong Performances Millie Bobby Brown anchors the story with sincerity and vulnerability, crafting a character that’s both determined and deeply relatable reddit.com .

While the Russo brothers opt for a more action‑driven approach than the introspective tone of the original illustrated novel, the film still poses compelling questions about escapism, technology, and what makes us human whats-on-netflix.com Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review Zach W. Netflix’s The Electric State fails to entertain because of its amateur script, ridiculous characters, and overall lack of stylistic, professional direction from Anthony Russo and Joe Russo. With a $320 million budget, The Electric State feels destructively unrefined and proves to be a difficult film to enjoy due to its numerous flaws. The acting from Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt feels lifeless. The characterization by the Russo Brothers never feels believable and the audience is left with minor moments of development over the course of a two hour film. With its blatant lack of style and a reliance on cheesy, poorly written humor, The Electric State does not belong to any true genre. Based on a highly interesting premise, The Electric State fails to honor its source material and instead delivers mindless slop. Despite its talented cast, The Electric State has no charm. The story makes no sense at times and the plot is cluttered by unnecessary moments. The premise of humans fighting robots is one that has been done masterfully numerous times before and The Electric State contributes zero interesting originality to the science fiction genre. While the plot of The Electric State is highly juvenile, the special effects are solid. There are certain scenes that had a believable atmosphere of destruction and chaos, but the eye for attention and detail struggles to be consistent throughout The Electric State. Overall, The Electric State is definitely a chore to finish, but there are a few moments that warrant a mindless smile. The Russo Brothers do not succeed in building the world of The Electric State and the plot, protagonists, and antagonists struggle as a result. The tone of The Electric State isolates the film from being anything more than a mindless comedy and belittles the audience into watching a story that never feels fully developed and explored. Somewhere in The Electric State there is a promising story, but Netflix completely dropped the ball with this one. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review John B. Get Millie Bobby brown away from Netflix Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review stephen b The premise and beginning of the moving was intriguing. But then it slowly devolves into a normal Netflix so-so formulaic blockbuster. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/24/25 Full Review Cameron L. I think the movies was really good it had a good story line loved the actors it combined comedy and action really well I felt like if you loved water world you would love this movie Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/25 Full Review CT 8 I’m sure if the movie featured alternate lifestyle robots, the out of touch with reality ‘professional’ critics would have been raving about it. Unfortunately for them, it’s a movie consisting of good,clean fun geared towards families. And it’s the one thing these clowns have no tolerance for.
