Ron: "Are you my best friend?" Oh damn.
Being alone in the theater was a blessing because I was able to laugh out loud with this one. The story was super formulaic with concrete acts and turning points. The theme was nothing new and felt redundant.
However, I adored the relationship between the main kid Barney and the malfunctioning bebot Ron. They cracked me up multiple times. The more I watched, the more I became invested in their relationship.
Overall, it's a movie that you have seen many times before, but the strong and sweet relationship between the two main characters made this worth a watch. 7.5/10.

Not bad
Really good social animated story about friendship and media but in a calm way
I don't understand the few reviews of absolutely hating on this it's not that slow or saturated with to much of anything! The main voices are wonderful throughout and color design is really good. Might not have as much to say as others but what I would say is the film is solid fun that shouldn't be taken as seriously as some vehicle stories. Lovable mindless entertainment with touches of all around genres!
I have never been so surprised by a film in the cinema
I am 19 years old and I took my 6 year old brother to the cinema today because he'd heard about this film from school and his friend was going to see it. I did not have high expectations. It was a 6.4 on Imdb and I had heard nothing positive about it. This experience was just so that my brother could have a good time and enjoy himself.
And yet by the end of the film, I found myself in awe. I had felt practically felt every emotion at one point or another at some point in the film. The jokes are quick and witty. The emotional moments are poignant and thought provoking. The general theme of friendship is so wholesome and the characters are well rounded. Even the villain was surprisingly great. He wasn't some mindless psycho wanting take over the world. He was a greedy owner of a successful company that cared more about the profits than the consumers. Sound like any companies we know? The ending was especially sad and unpredictable.
If you are like me and had doubts about this film, I encourage you to go see it. Its like the Mitchell's vs the machines but even better.
