To draw this
year to the close, I’m going to be looking at 4 lesser known films and 1 big
but ultimately sh*t adaptation. The first of these is Robot Overlords
Made in my
home country of the United Kingdom (the word British is used by Politicians and
Marketing companies, it’s rarely used by English/Scottish/Irish people, at
least few that I’ve heard) anyway, this film was released in the UK in 2014 and
in the US in 2015
Made with a
low $21m budget, it doesn’t appear that film got a wide release, only being in
30 cinemas in the UK, as such what research I found seems to imply that this
film did not make a return on that budget. The few critics that rated it on
Rotten Tomatoes found in their favour, gaining a 60% rating, but it only rates
23% with audiences. IDMb ranked it somewhere in between with a 4.6/10.
