"Frank. It's time for your enema."
I don't know why, but with these types of movies I always end up feeling so much for the robots. This has some heartwarming moments along with some twists.
So nice to watch a movie like this.A very good short lenght movie with good messages. 7.4/10
Old people and robots are cute.
A refreshing look at the possibilities of am intelligent humanoid robot. The movie used the perfect mix of making you emphasize with the characters, while taking brief comedic episodes to keep the overall movie upbeat.
This movie has a certain tone and ring to it. It carries the mood through out the story really well. I felt the longing and the pure boredom of being old and forgetful. And I got excited with the possibilities of Frank's robot. It is really well made. If you liked... Safety Not Guaranteed, you'll like this too.. this one's a bit slower. It'll serve you well if you are having a slow pondering day.
This exceeded expectations. I was rooting for the old dude and the robot since about half way through this movie. That wasn't the case initially at the start. That is great writing and character building.
That movie was very interesting until the end. All the things Frank realises due to his old age... Man I cried at the end. The end is sad.
But I loved it, I rated it 10/10 lol
So I recommend it, really.
Robot & Frank
This heartfelt story of a man battling with dementia, really got me invested and pulled my heart strings.
Some good comedy to be found.
The main cast were mostly fantastic, however Liv Tyler and the supporting cast was less than stellar.
8/10

heart full movie, sweet and relaxing. Sad mood at the end
Sweet.
Bit like Real Humans the series
If you do not expect to much of this movie - its gonna be okay and worth watching it.
The plot is set in the near future: A man is getting Alzheimer, his son/daughter send him a robot to help him. The old man was into some crime stuff when he was younger.... and now he got a new toy to play with :D
That's all without to spoiler too much.
They are really some funny scenes in it, but I like it more because of the possibility that using a robot in this way might be the future. Think about it: Its already possible to have cleaning-helps at your home. Vaccuum Cleaner are already on the market, and another one who's wiping your floor. (I got both by the way^^). Not to mention expensive toys like the Aibo from Sony. So lets see how this continues.
But if you expect many action scenes in this movie like iRobot: nope! And thats okay with that movie.
If you want to chill out on your couch after a sunny day: that movie would make it. And you might get some laughs out of it.
I give it a "Fair" so - 6 / 10 points.
A Hart warming Dark Comedy.
Duuuuude - SPOILER ALERT!
I didn't understood the ending... Did the robot get Alzheimer or what?
Why was he talking about the previous robbery as the future plan (just before the reformat)?
This film is fabulous, reminded me of little miss sunshine
