I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Robot Overloads is a film with an uneven tone aimed at teenagers and harking back to sci fi films of the 1960s. Comparisons have been made to Doctor Who, but that is lazy. The film lacks the warmth and heart of Doctor Who. A more apt comparison was a cheesy 1980s serial, Tripods.The setting is a planet occupied by Robot invaders who wish to study humans. Humans are confined to their homes, a strict curfew is imposed and monitored by implants in their necks.A group of kids set out to join the Resistance. One of them has the ability to interface and control the robots. Chasing them is a robot collaborator Mr Smythe (Ben Kingsley) who has the hots for one of the kids mom (Gillian Anderson.)The film was shot in the Isle of Man and Northern Island. There are some great mountain scenes, the special effects are very good and Kingsley and Anderson lend the film some class.The story was thin, even cheesy. The tone rather uneven for a film aimed at teenagers. Something never clicked and there were times the film was just drab and dull.

For some reason this movie reminded me of a Famous Five story - possible because when I started watching it I didn't know it was aimed at a pre-teen to teen audience, however that soon became clear...Group of kids on an adventure to save humanity from robots that have overrun the Earth and made everyone prisoners in their own homes.Low budget, but surprisingly good effects and acting, story line that flows well, but not much to it and most of the situations the are not realistic.I don't really think this one is for the Sci-Fi fans - there's just not enough Sci and too much Fi!Would appeal to ages 10 to 16 or so, not much of a target audience which is why this film is getting low scores.I give it 6 because it is good for a low budget movie and deserves more credit than it is getting.

Unbelievably bad. Insultingly so. Not camp, or funny, or art house, or anything of the sort, just bad. Bad effects. Horrible plot. Atrocious acting. Etc. Sir Ben, what were you thinking? I saw him on a talk show the other night and wish the host would have asked him about this turd. Embarrassing to everybody involved, including me the viewer. The crux of the movie is that super advanced robots have taken over the world and install chips in the heads of the few remaining humans to keep tabs on them. If people go outside without permission, the robots kill them. That is until some young children figure out that all you have to do to override the chips is to zap them with some low voltage electricity and then you're free to wander around all you want. Really, no government scientist, PhD in electronics, crazy survivalist, etc. had every tried tinkering with the robot control chips before? And then to think that some 6 year old could thwart the super advanced alien race that has already taken over this world and others? And on that note, robots and aliens are different things. Why is this movie about really simple robot aliens w/o any mention of actual aliens? Weak!

This is a real piece of crap. Many holes in the plot and the cinematography is as bad as hell.If your time has a value don't watch this movie. Get names such as Gillian Anderson and Ben Kingsley isn't enough when there isn't a storyThe storyline is stupid beyond anyone (above 4 year old) belief. The dialogs are moving between bad to embarrassingly cheesy. The acting is so so. The CGI is outdated. There is very little good to write about it. Totally Disappointeddon't Watch it.
