646f9e108c Earth has been conquered by robots from a distant galaxy. Survivors are confined to their houses and must wear electronic implants, risking incineration by robot sentries if they venture outside. Alien robots come to Earth and assert their control over humanity. They claim that they only want to observe humanity. They enforce a strict no one allowed outside rule. They implant humans with a device that alerts sentries to anyone who goes outside and if they refuse to comply they are destroyed. They also employ humans to be their proctors. One of these men is Robin Smythe. He tries to get Kate Flynn to be his wife but she still mourns her husband whom Smythe says died. But her son Sean, doesn&#39;t believe it. He sends messages out asking anyone who knows anything about his father to tell him. One day he and three young people are fooling around when they discover that they turned off their implant. That&#39;s when they go outside and someone answers Sean&#39;s message and tells him where his father is. So he goes out to find him But Smythe pursues him and brings his motherleverage. And when the robots corner Sean he somehow manages to control them. So the Robots are curious why he can do that. So they tell Smythe to capture him. After eleven days the Robots from space took over Earth, three years later a group of youngsters figure out a way to fight back.<br/><br/>There&#39;s a handful of dedicated British actors including Tamer HassanWayne and a cameo from Geraldine James. Sir Ben Kingsley appearsa traitor to the human race with a northern accent and Gillian Anderson stars along side the young lead actors who figure out how to defuse their restraining blots that keep them under home arrest.<br/><br/>Writers Jon Wright and Mark Stay borrow elements from classic film and TV science fiction shows, Matrix and Terminator-like flying machines, giant century robots, Borg space cubes and Stars Wars droid restraints to name a few. Even dogfighting spitfires like in ID4 and Robcop&#39;s ED-209 countdowns.<br/><br/>Callan McAuliffe is notableSean Flynn who with the help of his friends go looking for his Dad Danny played by Steven Mackintosh. The scope sometimes feels BBC kitsch but Wright offers some nice explosions and special effects. There&#39;s a beat pounding score with a Brit location and retro feel reminiscent of a mix of Dr. Who and the Daleks (1965), Daleks&#39; Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. (1966), The World&#39;s End (2013), Lifeforce and 1984.<br/><br/>Hardened scifi fans may want to skip Wrights&#39; bread and butter additionits derived from many other science fictions. While notthought provokingthe recent The Machine,funAttack the Block orgoodWorld&#39;s End, it is nicely put together and worth viewing for fans of old school British scifi who may get a restraining jolt buzz from this production. Robot OverlordsÂ…I wasn&#39;t expecting cinematic wonder, and the attachment of Ms. Anderson and Mr. Kingsley was enough to raise interest, but even the aforementioned talent could not save Robot Overlords. <br/><br/>Truthfully, the acting is acceptable, the special effects, while low budget, are decent and the production,a whole, has more polish, than a typical &quot;b&quot; movie. It is the &quot;Scooby Do&quot; qualities that sink the show e.g. kids fighting for their lives with fireworks, bad guys are evil, rotten and bad, children save the day etc. etc. <br/><br/>Robot Overlords is much like an adolescent; vacillating between actingan adult and actinga child. The result is an awkward film. Other movies have bridged this space, with clever adult subtext and/or humor over their juvenile story. Robot Overlords misses this opportunity, and consequently, fails.<br/><br/>If you and your children are science fiction fans, it could make a movie night but, wait for the dollar rental. The film is never less than amiable, and rather more spirited and nonconformist than the Transformers movies.
I am so glad to see the download link of the movie robot overlords shared here. The full movie link was available from here Plant-Based Food and this site offers a huge collection of movies. We can see movies from different languages also. Keep up the good work.
