So much average
Excellent but underrated film
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Not as half as bad if you are in the right mood for the kind of the movie as it is kinda refreshing after all the "great" comedies in the last few years as it's purely stupid fun.
I am a very forgiving reviewer--I can usually find something to like about a film. In this case the only reason it gets 3 points at all is due to the premise, but as far as the plot, the characters, the dialogue--and as another reviewer puts it, the execution, it is a genuine stinker.None of the characters are likable, not even the robot or the kids. I have no issue at all about sexbots, nor do I have a problem with evolving AI--especially as they are likely a near reality, but the WAY in which this story was told was just terrible! As is often the case, the kids are too precocious, but even given that, they simply aren't believable--in their actions, their dialogue or their acting. I mean usually, the writers at least make the main kids likable or endearing in some way. In this movie, the one "nice" lead, is just too, too much to be believable, and the whole religious spiel in the middle of the film as a plot device? Ugh. To be fair, I can't decide if it's the acting that is off, or the directing--as if that ultimately matters in a film this bad (I can forgive either one if other elements make up for it) but the dialoge and development sure don't help. All of the other characters are pure (and poorly done) stereotypical caricature. The entire thing reads as a throwaway script in some slush pile.Now it's obvious that this film is aimed at young pubescent boys, but I doubt even that demographic would enjoy this film. There isn't enough substance--or visual candy in here to be even mildly titillating. This movie offers absolutely nothing to the audience. My recommendation is to just pass this one by--pubescent boy or not-- cause if you ARE a pubescent boy you will be sorely disappointed.
OK. I won't tell you it is a "great flick" but it is not that bad. I don't really understand the bashing about it. I perceived anger in some reviews. I welcome all opinions and feelings but it is like some people are watching a movie with very specific expectations about what they want to see or not see. As for me I saw some good sides in it. It is absurd and surreal in a lot of ways and that is a pretty decent quality to me. There is no sophisticated humor in it and some lines are excessively trashy which is not necessary. The use of foul language does not always make a scene funny. However I saw a reflection about the education and the conditioning that we are all going through in our society and how it determines our behavior. The scene with Limus's little sister Shaqobi with Bardot the hot chick robot in the doll house illustrate that and I though it was pretty funny. The acting is also quite decent and it looks like improvisation has been used in many scenes sometimes successfully and it requires talent to do that. Of course there are flaws in the script and the editing. The director seems to have done better works in the past but it is not as bad as it is rated and comedy is a very tricky craft...
Spoiler: THIS MOVIE IS A PIECE OF CRAP!!!Holy mother of God...I'm ashamed for Larry Miller, Danny Masterson, Angela Kinsey and everybody that worked on that piece of CRAP!The movie wants to be "Weird Science" meets "Superbad" meets "E.T." but it's just a big piece of dog crap!The script is totally inane, character's psychology and development is non-existent, and the direction is worse than all the rest! I saw it on NetFlix and was tempted to ask for my $8 back for the month!My only advice is to stay away from this PIECE OF CRAP! Go re-watch "Weird Science", "Superbad" and "E.T." instead!Oh, did I mention it? This movie is freaking' PILE OF DOG CRAP!
