The storyline isn't groundbreaking; it centers around robots built by humans who begin acting independently, typically at the expense of human safety. When these are combat robots, things quickly escalate. It initially seemed promising. I found the execution to be fairly average, though. The beginning is decent, with scenes set in the company headquarters and some visually interesting displays of Mills’ eye implants. The film then introduces the military unit about to have a harsh introduction to the “robot way.” Sadly, the writer resorted to a tired trope: portraying the commander as an unpleasant character who looks down on anyone outside his marine squad. The action moves quickly to the island training facility. Following some awkward dialogue between the marines and Mills aboard a strange and unconvincing transport ship, it’s time for deployment and some fighting. What follows is largely a drawn-out series of alternating firefights between the troops and robots, interspersed with moments of quiet reflection. The actions of this supposedly elite marine squad felt amateurish. The robots themselves were not particularly impressive. What bothered me most was that they seemed incapable of hitting their targets unless by chance. These were supposed to be advanced pieces of technology. Even simple smoke grenades are used to evade them. It’s hard to accept futuristic killer robots relying on visuals and being unable to shoot accurately; it's quite disappointing. Predictably, there's a large final confrontation. However, it just repeated what we had already seen: robots firing erratically and marines eliminating them in substantial but not overwhelming numbers. Eventually, someone uses EMP charges. But then the writer introduces another contrived plot device: implants that resist the initial EMP blast but gradually degrade afterward, also erasing the implanted person’s memories. I thought this was foolish. The conclusion? It was as unremarkable as you'd anticipate from a low-budget science fiction/horror film. The movie wasn't terrible and had some intriguing concepts, but it was obvious that budgetary and other limitations were in place. The writing and the robot designs—which seemed to prioritize appearance over functionality—detracted from the overall experience.
