Feels more like "If Neill Blomkamp made I, Robot."

I think this movie is still free on Xbox for a short time. Decent movie, but not mind-blowing. It's definitely not action-packed like District 9 or I, Robot, and aimed to be more appealing visually and thematically with its dystopian ideas. It had a good premise and a lot of promise but it wasn't executed very well. Whether or not that's because of its low budget is up for debate, but there was a lot of room to explore and expand on for sure. Watch it if you're curious and have nothing else to do, but you won't be missing out on much if you don't.
