I went with my friend and husband, all of us dog owners. What I liked is the way AXL captured many dog characteristics. It was a good, entertaining movie. We enjoyed it very much and hope there is a sequel. Probably best for kids over 9.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Das ist doch nicht euer Ernst. Ein Film über einen Roboterhund? Es gab schon genug Filme dieser Art. Die Klischees sind ja nicht auszuhalten. Wer ist der Böse? Das amerikanische Militär. Dazu ne seichte Liebesstory und der Hund wird zum besten Freund. Das hab ich schon in zig anderen Filmen gesehen und brauche es nicht wieder. Geldverschwendung.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie could be okay if done 20 years ago as a teen-action movie. The plot seems to be written by a 12-year old, the kind of stories a young boy would dream of living: Being a cool dirt bike rider, a hot chick has a crush on him and some cool tech robot to play around with.

Everything here is a cliche: The 'super tech' presentation, the bullies, the crush of the two protagonists for each other. Too many issues with this "movie" that takes long to count.

How can a dropout to be so smart to fix a dog robot all by himself TWICE? How come FBI could be beaten up by two teens who never had previous training or even held a gun before? How come the dog robot inventor couldn't save it from being fumed? Isn't there any 'manual handling' installed to control it when it's getting berserk?

What made me hate the protagonists more is when they had no problem stealing gas or money from the ATM, while they protect this dog-robot thing because the military is 'abusing' it. I never had any empathy for any of them at the end. I never cared what is happening. Even the people in theater didn't care and they started playing with their phones, chatting or making out.

This movie is really bad. It doesn't deserve the time to even watch it for free. Save your time and cash.… Expand

Great for kids over 9, teens, adults. Well-made family film with good values about kindness, compassion and the value of life over promotion of violence. Good suspense and exciting scenes. Unbelievable motocross action--teens will love it.Great for kids over 9, teens, adults. Well-made family film with good values about kindness, compassion and the value of life over promotion of violence. Good suspense and exciting scenes. Unbelievable motocross action--teens will love it. Stunt riders were incredible. CGI was excellent. Acting was good, particularly the lead boy and his father. Realistic portrayal of war technology race and dehumanizing aspects. Sound quality poor. Female lead trashy clothes poor choice. Hope they make this into a series on Netflix.… Expand

Great characters and overall great story. This movie was underrated. It's trailer did not do it justice. The sound track is also killer.
