Isaac Asimov (the acclaimed Sci-Fi book author) wrote the 3 rules of law concerning, and for, Robot manufacturing...
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given to it by any human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the 1st Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the 1st or 2nd Laws.
Unbeknownst to many he later added a law numbered "ZERO", before the first one and which has the highest importance:
0. A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
The film begins with a Robot 1 prototype killing a worker from the company that has invented it and is testing them and, we NEVER find out why it has broken the Robot primary directive law of no harm to humans. It progresses like this with never telling the viewer anything about anything!
Nothing to enjoy in this film offering of Robot's 1 and 2 who, are opposing home help family robots. 1 is a prototype model - which is very obvious - and 2 is the new superior improved model. For some reason 2 has become sentient (with the same technical flawed reasoning that the Sky-Net) Terminators had. But, as it is an extremely low, VERY LOW, budget and possibly filmed with an i-Phone, there is no plot development or story arc given to viewers at all. What we do get as viewers however is, a VERY badly acted, dull rendition of an idea that has been done on better scales before!
This is the second film this year that I have had to use my Jedi knowledge of controlling the "Force" (to impose a top level of patience and complete concentration) to in order to wade through an unbelievable heap of junk from the Dark Side!
With visuals that are worse than a moshed together Halloween costume, it had nothing that could ease my displeasure through a single grin etc to break the humdrum routine. A grimace is all I could pull from my inner muscle storage of face expressions.
The only thing good I can say about this film is that its Poster is very nice (as a ex graphic designer and as an artist I notice those things first...usually) though, It is also to blame for my ending up watching this dreary techno trash!
