Released: March 12
Damn, it’s gonna be a great year for people like me who really love movies about robots, although the presence of South African rap dickheads Die Antwoord doesn’t thrill me (apparently Ninja was also “pure evil” to work with).
Neill Blomkamp has a gift for seamlessly meshing futuristic technology and everyday life, and Blomkamp regular Sharlto Copley mo-caps and voices the title character; an innocent, emotional robot. It’s basically Short Circuit, except unlike Fisher Stevens, Dev Patel is actually ethnically Indian.
