This movie works as eye candy for a combined 15 minutes of its running time. The rest is AWFUL.

Rating: 2/10 (24 June 2009)

Like bad action movies of the past with a big budget but no brain, (Can you say Reloaded? Can you say Revolutions? Can you now say Returns?) This movie pretends to be smart but ultimately there was no thought put into it on any level other then how to make different kinds of Robots look cool. Even the action scenes were on the weak and flimsy side. Again, the choppy CG was horid. The entire movie lacked real energy. Not only that, but there was zero chemistry between the stars--who have no personality or charisma. Since the movie tries to put some sort of emphasis on the characters, this was a serious problem. This film had some nice effects that quickly became boring as their setup and overuse flowed for far too long. Just like the Matrix sequels, this movie works as eye candy for a combined 15 minutes of its running time. The rest is crap.
