Clever, not endearing
This movie had my wife and me laughing at its cleverness and puns and there is certainly an uplifting message at its core. But there is a good deal of juvenile bathroom humor and, yes, some suggestive lines -- all designed, no doubt, to keep adults entertained. While our family enjoyed the movie we found it, at times, very busy, fast-moving and visually challenging to watch (the rollercoaster and battle scenes move too fast to truly comprehend.) Upon exiting the theater, we were on sensory overload. We took our 5 year old to see it and aren't sad that we did, but it is truly more appropriate for second or third graders or older.

bearable but not better than that
Robots fits the formula for recent animated movies: really talented actors' voices, some jokes aimed at adults, mild messages of social benefit. The good news: both my 11 and 6 year olds were entertained, mildly. However, it flunked my two tests: I did check my blackberry for email during the movie (and nodded off once), and never got teary, which I do at American Express commercials. Wait for the video.

Not as clever as it looks
Although the animation was fine, this movie falls flat on plot and character. The villain and his villainous mother were strictly cardboard and even the good guys had no spark.

Boring beyond belief
I have never had a reaction to a movie like I did this one. My reaction? BLAH.
Formulaic characters. Poor dialogue. Predictable ending.
There is nothing to this movie. Even Robin Williams seems like he could have done more with his character if given the chance.
The movie seems to have been designed merely to showcase those visual effects everyone's talking about. Kinda like "Oh yeah, I guess we should have some kind of love story here...."
Won't buy the DVD, won't need to see it ever again.....

Really funny
I don't really like animated movies. However, this one is one that I do like. Parts of it are laugh-out-loud funny and kids really like all of the amazing graphics and funny robots. Great for kids.

Modern cartoon with a little adult humor
While I agree that the fart sequence is a little unnecessary I find this movie really cute. I think all in all the lessons it's teaches are worthwhile. I think the idea to be proud of yourself no matter what is important and the idea to not give up on your dreams is endearing.
I think the "violence" is well done in a way that it is goofy and child acceptable. The few suggestive comments are not in your face. They are subtle and not overly offensive.
All in all me and my kids really enjoy this movie (over and over again!)

Great movie. My kids have been watching it since they were 2yrs old.
My daugther started watching this movie when she was about 2 and loved it. My son is two months shy of being two and he asks to watch this movie every night. I have no issue showing kids as young as mine this movie. There are some darker seens but they never scared my daughter or my son. They love the music. There are some cute references that adults would get that young kids most likely would not (which is kind of nice for the adults..especially if your kids are at the age where they like to watch the same movies over and over again). There is a lot of action which keeps my son entertained. He is 21 months old and this is the only movie that he will sit through in its entirety. My daugther (who is now almost 4, loves the story line). It also sends a good message which is basically, "don't give up, follow your dreams, and you will succeed."
