Audience Reviews for Automata

  some neat stuff in here, but otherwise quite a mess of a movie

  The interesting premise is not developed to its full potential here. While the production design and effects are overall decent, it's the story that drags on a little bit. What begins looking like Blade Runner soon becomes more of a Neil Blomkamp kinda film, without taking the action or violence very far. The showdown is another example of a good idea not entirely thought or pulled through. Too bad, this could have been cooler.

  Autómata is yet another film that would be considered a science-fiction film revolving around a dystopian future. This future is filled with robots who were created to serve man and in doing so have become an essential part of society. Unfortunately, the Earth's ecosystem is failing and humanity has been reduced to a fraction of what it once was. When we pick up with our protagonist we see he is hired to investigate a robot who is found to be tampered with and disobeyed one of it's primary functions, to protect people. The film is much better from a visual perspective than a well conceived story and the film can seem like an over polished but weak film throughout it's running time. It deals with some meaningful topics but uses recycled cliches and ideas that aren't really original to drive the story along. Still, the film has its moments and moves along briskly enough to hold interest, but can be a little dull at times and hollow. None of the performances really deliver, but try to get through the film and it's C.G.I interactions with the actual actors involved. With such films as the Mad Max films, The Book of Eli and even The Hunger Games, there are better options with even larger budgets out there if you are looking for spectacle that isn't just purely visual candy. Still, if you like the genre there are worse films then this, and you can find something to like, even though the film isn't so complex as it would try to make you believe.

  While the setting and ambiance of this sci-fi thriller are spectacular, the payoffs never add up to the potential of the premise, and it's thematic sloppiness makes it difficult to tell exactly what it's trying to say.
