Puis vient se greffer cette histoire de robots qui déconnent et voici notre gentil gars (Banderas très bien comme toujours) qui vient fourrer son nez là il ne faut pas...

Car la société qui fabrique les robots est une méchante société et en général et en particulier, les hommes sont méchants dans le film sauf notre Antonio (toujours beau gosse même la boule à zéro) qui aime bien les tas de ferraille (à son insu sans doute) et aussi parce que sa bonne femme va accoucher (accouchement du mari par procuration, on appelle ça) : il aime trop la vie, tu vois, même quand c'est pas la vie... m'enfin bref.

Donc les robots gentils sont trop gentils mais également trop intelligents et c'est trop émouvant les gentils robots qui se réparent tout seuls et c'est trop sympa les gentils robots, tout mignons... (mode bisounours enclenché).

Donc une fois à la fin, on est un peu énervé et soûlé en même temps : l'impression qu'on nous a pris pour des andouilles alors que par ailleurs le film est bourré d'incohérences pour "justifier" la méchanceté des méchants humains.

Du cou, ils ont un peu raison : je suis un peu méchant avec ce film : 3/10, ce sera bien suffisant. Même si c'est un peu sévère. Mais juste un peu seulement.… Expand

Nothing unique at all, an utter waste of money, time, and efforts on a mere replica of a dozen (or even more) other films with the same core idea.

There are so many good notions that seem to be just sitting off the edge of the camera, but nothing of worth happens on screen. I can (and do) suspend belief for good science fiction, but in less than 30 years this is the world as we knowThere are so many good notions that seem to be just sitting off the edge of the camera, but nothing of worth happens on screen. I can (and do) suspend belief for good science fiction, but in less than 30 years this is the world as we know it-with insurance companies and a fraction of a fraction of today's population? The acting is wooden, with Melanie Griffith phoning in a performance; you can almost see her reading her lines as if, off-camera, someone was holding cue cards.
What the film does get right is the realistic movement and actions of robots, and the tone of dingy squalor is what the script called for, I'm sure. That humans, even those just three decades from now, are just so absolutely unbelieving of autonomous robotics made me facepalm over and over.… Expand

Interesting at first, Automata completely loses logic somewhere by the middle. All in all, this movie feels like it was trying to repeat I, Robot with more philosophical context, but failed to understand or recapture what made it good

Very similar plot to I, Robot and almost identical ending, with the exception of several major plot holes that kind of spoil the view. Not that I, Robot was a masterpiece at all. The psychology of the robot is borrowed here from Asimov'sVery similar plot to I, Robot and almost identical ending, with the exception of several major plot holes that kind of spoil the view. Not that I, Robot was a masterpiece at all. The psychology of the robot is borrowed here from Asimov's tropes and the usual good-evil diatribe is very tiring; the one thing that stands out is the depiction of yet another post-apocalyptic earth (and we've seen quite a handful of those in the last ten years) with some credibility this time. Visuals are theoretically good, especially those of open spaces, however robots come off as slightly fake. Anyway, you'll almost never see bright colours.

I'm very glad there weren't lots of shootings and explosions, because that would have gotten Automata my lowest mark, 1.… Expand

The only thing that is possibly worse than the meaningless story and the pre-teen attempts at philosophy is the thankfully short acting of Melanie Griffith, which by the way seems lobotomized too. Thinking of that, this movie should've been called Lobòtomata.… Expand
