Let's be realistic.
Good concept, poorly executed.
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Based on a true so this is not as good as CHUCKY which was based on ROBERT before it was made.I am not going to insult you by even mentioning the plot...the boy likes the doll, mom is on meds and dad doubts both mom and the boy who may both be mentally unstable.Robert lacks the charisma of Chucky. Suzie Frances Garton is not Catherine Hicks either. The sound is choppy in the beginning, something that they later fixed. The early kitchen scene has the shadow of the microphone on the wooden cabinet...yes I saw it Andrew Jones if you didn't or cared. And what was with the American Flag flying over the neighbors place outside of the window? Where was this filmed anyway? I don't believe the inside of the house was the same house we saw from the outside. Not that it's a bad thing, only when it is obvious.Outside of that, ROBERT is another in a serious of stories where puppets or wooden dolls overpower adults 3-4 times their size. If you haven't seen one of these before, this one is not a bad flick. Unfortunately I don't know anyone who meets that description over the age of 5. There is a "real story" of Robert Eugene Otto on Wikipedia. Acting could have been better too.Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity. No dolls were harmed in the making of this film.
To the poor people who think this sad movie was well-acted... This movie was borderline hysterical because of the poor acting shown. The son in particular shows no emotion towards anything that happens in the movie. And can we PLEASE talk about that maid Martha falling down the stairs, hitting the back of her head on the floor, no marks on her face until the wife cones home and suddenly she's bleeding from her forehead? I laughed so hard watching this movie and was not in the least bit frightened. The ONLY reason it's getting a 2 instead of a 1 is because I laughed so hard. The husband is the worst type of husband. He blames the whole thing on stress or having a hard day instead of listening to his family. Completely stereotypical.
I don't normally write film reviews but feel like I owe it to potential watchers of this movie to write one. First of all, the people that gave this movie 7/8 put of 10.. have you ever actually seen a decent horror movie?!The acting if you can call it that was beyond terrible. Literally painful and cringey to watch. Felt like they were all auditioning for a commercial or something. This could have been so much better had they used decent actors and a slightly bigger budget. Also did anyone notice that the movie was filmed inside a hotel?! Nothing about the movie felt genuine and I didn't expect much from the movie but didn't realize it would be this bad!Please save yourselves the time and watch a proper horror movie instead. 'The Boy' for example is a great doll horror with a great twist.
I always wondered when someone would actually make a movie based on Robert The Doll. Finally someone did it and is it any good? No! The movie is terrible. The movie is supposed to be based on the real story of Robert but it's not. If you're not aware of the real story you'll fast want to find out, and oh boy you'll disappointed finding out that they screwed up the story so bad. What they did was basically grabbing a story and try to make something on their own using small nods from the real one. First of all, The Otto's weren't British and never did they have a maid.This is one of those movies you want to stay away from. You'll find the small documentary clips on Youtube scarier. I have no idea what the writer was thinking when he made this movie or wrote it. If i had a foot inside the film business i would give them my script i wrote about Robert 3 years ago. Keeping through to the origins.
