Review of Robots

Robots (I) (2023)
4/10
Tries but misses

Warning: Spoilers
Long time since I read anything by Robert Sheckley and kudos for adapting one of his stories, but what a mess.

Sub-par acting, zero chemistry between the leads, way too many long shots of the New Mexico landscape (why for crying out loud?) and just generally quite unfunny and awkward.

The robot workers had a mask that looked like it was copied from the classic Primus video Wynona's Big Brown Beaver.

Nonsensical too - at the end they drive to Mexico to a border crossing that is just a hole in the massive newly built wall, but have to get out as concrete bars the way. So the other side they just walk through the desert ? Silly.
