Synopsis:

From IMDb: “acq Vaucan, an insurance agent of ROC robotics corporation, routinely investigates the case of manipulating a robot. What he discovers will have profound consequences for the future of humanity.”

Poster: C / C-

Review: (#1 & #2) Neither of these designs are that creative and they only lightly touch on the sci-fi element. However, the first poster is much more interesting visually, which allows it to draw the viewer’s eyes to various points int the design. That won’t really sell the film, but at least it keeps it from being entirely boring.

Trailer: B

Review: The idea of robots gaining sentience and the desire of their human overlords to stop them has been around for a long time and won’t likely find many instances of superior treatment. However, this film certainly tries to approach it from a creative and audacious standpoint. That could help distinguish it from other sci-fi films currently in the marketplace.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
