Critics Consensus

Robots delights on a visual level, but the story feels like it came off an assembly line.

B+

The movie's admirable theme, that there are things more important than profit, comes across under the virtuoso visuals that peak when endless falling dominos turn into a veritable ocean of the little black blocks being surfed by a robot.

Top notch cast, and some creative animation can't help a basic, predictable, and sadly forgettable animated film whose characters and story leave no impact.
