I'll start with the good things. You know what kind of things to expect from a movie like this, an easy-to-watch, entertaining movie with a couple of moving plot points and a happy ending. That was what I expected, and I think most of us also, and that's what we received. Up there, positive points for this movie. The bad thing is that the performances leave much to be desired. The one of Jackman does not arrive to him nor to the ankles to the simple Rocky de Stallone and the one of the boy is, then, a boredom by where it is watched. Finally, I feel that the child / Atom relationship could be much more powerful. Anyway, for these reasons, I do not think this movie deserves more than a five.

We saw an advanced screening on Sept 22. I thought it was going to be another one of those cheesy, campy, not really believable, warm fuzzy, type of underdog/rags to riches movies. I was actually surprised. It had some great plot twists, it had a real storyline. And while yes, there is some language sprinkled throughout, it did make a good family movie for older kids, 10+ (my opinion). The ending wasn't quite what I was expecting, but looking back I think I liked it better for that. Who wants an ending they can see coming to the entire movie?It had some great comedy moments. The relationships between the actors felt genuine and not overdone or forced. The robot animatronics was good. The robots themselves were fun and imaginative and definitely made me wish we really had this sport. I would so be there!

When a father is stuck with his son who he barely knows - a robot is found - This leads to Battles in an actual arena - Don't let the robot battle make you doubt this movie, because it actually has a fantastic story line - By the way, the acting is pretty darn good too. Special effects are done quite well - and you can't help but lose yourself in the movie due to the wonderful story line - it's no Gone With The Wind (HA!) but it is unique and extremely worth a watch for a father (Or grandfather) and son (grandson). Lots of action - And who doesn't like Hugh Jackman - He plays a great mean father - but even the hardest heart can be changed with the love of a son and a passion for battle bots!
