Also, I have a problem with cute robots and Eevul Corporations which spend vast amounts of money to keep the equivalent of a stoner (or stoners) in a position that robots could do much less expensively, except then they wouldn't be EEEEVULL!<br /><br />I fell asleep at one point in the theater.Todd Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815516018079824802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-26188579473525235492010-01-17T16:47:19.510-06:002010-01-17T16:47:19.510-06:00The whole film rests on Sam Rockwell's perform...The whole film rests on Sam Rockwell's performance and he pulls it off perfectly.

It and District 9 were my two fav SF films from 2009.Scott D. Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293540073601809197noreply@blogger.com
