just watch it!

Good start, but then it gets ruined

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

I wonder why it only has a rating of 6,3 on this website when it is worthy of a 7 with the well made world of robots and the giant step up in the quality of the animation since Ice Age. When I said Robots was fun I meant that when it hits it made me laugh, indeed. Robin Williams does his usual schtick and it never disappoints me, but with that said the humour is a bit of a hit or miss, because it can be juvenile at times. Robots has a good message about consumerism and wealthy and greedy businessmen making their profits off of poor people. It's nothing new, but sympathetic. The characters are pretty generic and not as complex as they were in Ice Age, but that doesn't make them bad at all. They're both likable and fun, just something we have seen before. Robots is enjoyable and entertaining and even though it's not the best from Blue Sky Studios it deserves more praise for its creative world building and beautiful animation.

I find that this movie has aged really really well, while a lot of other Pixar / Disney / feelgood movies really didn't. movies like this often leave me in a cringe due to their forced "haha look at how funny this is!!!!111!" factor being so high, this movie did not force too much emotion in everything at all. most things just got rolled in. some things where still cringe worthy, especially the ending scene but it felt like they where pretty self aware of that. the plot is incredibly stereotypical but that didn't hurt the movie, it was easy to follow and that made it easy to look at the beautiful imaginary and boy this movie looks good! for its time but even nowadays it looks incredible! they really dedicated themselves to a theme and stuck with it. I always loved the concept of imagery like this, create a world made of ordinary things to make complex images. and that is what this movie feels to achieve, even though they did not quite do that, they did leave the same feeling when watching it. the movie is essentially this art form:Https://Ishmam {dot} files {dot} Wordpress {dot} com/2013/03/8237f5cf7e1ba75f7496901367863 427 {dot} Jpgyou can just keep looking at the scenes without getting bored one bit.

While the story isn't particularly original or substantial, ROBOTS is a fun film for kids that has plenty of visual creativity. While a plot synopsis probably isn't necessary, here goes. Rodney is an aspiring robot inventor who moves to the big city to make his dreams come true, but along the way he has to deal with an evil corporate tyrant who threatens to turn old robots into scrap metal. First of all, I have to say this movie has one of the best voice casts ever assembled. Ewan McGregor plays the main character Rodney Copperbottom, and is joined by Halle Berry, Greg Kinnear, Robin Williams and Mel Brooks, to name a few. Every single actor brought their character to life vibrantly and with humor. Of course, with an animated movie you can't not discuss the visual elements. Blue Sky Studios (Ice Age and Rio) did an awesome job bringing this robot world to life. It kind of reminded me a little of steampunk, but more colorful and sanitized for children. There's also a number of stunningly creative sequences which are Rube Goldberg-esque in their complexity. The humor is also worthy of mention, because there's plenty of jokes that the kids will get, and some for the parents as well. There's even some hilarious usage of (then-current) pop music, and a couple other original songs. When it's all said and done, this movie isn't really the most original in terms of plot, but there are positive messages for kids and enough visual style to spare.

The bar for animated films is very high what with the Shrek franchise from Dreamworks and all the wonderful films that Pixar continue to produce so Robots has to work hard to try and match them. And while it makes a good attempt it will never topple these films as being the best example of an animated film.All the hallmarks of good animated family films are there - it's visually interesting, it has a good heart and humour while also boasting the now obligatory all star cast that all animated films seem to need but the overall story seems to be lacking so we don't invest as much love into the characters as we do with say Buzz or Woody. Children of a young age will no doubt enjoy it but the adults who are watching it with them may find themselves sneaking a look at the running time on the back of the DVD and seeing how much longer there is to go.The team at BlueSky (who also did the Ice Age films) do an awful lot right with this film but it hasn't been remembered as fondly as some of the others that have been released in the same time period.
