This movie is boring and out of touch about kids today. We also didn't have a clear understanding of the point in this movie. We think it was saying Tech is bad? Like our phones? because these "buddies" did social media like our phone do, only in this world it sends and records AT WILL. Not by the users choice or control. Or about Friendships-ish? They still use bots just like in the beginning of the movie to make friends, soo nothing has changed other than now their robots are out of control then before. Which is having the kids now chase the Robots and fallow them for likes and stats all while trying to keep their bots under control.
Family point
They tried hard on the grandma. My daughters and I were uncomfortable every time she had pulled something out from under her skirt and would make uncomfortable faces. At first it was like ok haha because we know a lot of cartoons have done this, but they really kept pushing it and continuing it as well as how high she was reaching for her tools and stuff. My 6yr daughter would say she should hold stuff in her coochie. That's what she got from that. I mean a purse would have been better. The villain just up and left over a short small vid of himself disliking kids? How about he gets arrested for recording children? They could be changing or showering and these things are recording with a mass amount of staff just watching. Or how about when he almost killed the kid by hiding the one screen that Barney was on. Other staff would have seen it too AS WELL AS BE ALERTED FINDING HIM SINCE THE RED BEAMS WERE CLEARLY ON THEM BOTH, but hey its a kids movie. Everyone just walks away and no one bats an eye. So many other things, that we all just didn't like about this movie.
I give it a 1. I saw the heart and potential, but the point of this movie
Definingly missed its mark on this one.
