Monsters of Man

Make no mistake about it. This is a B-movie and should really be judged as such. As a B-movie it is a decent enough movie. It ticks off quite a few of the WTF points that B-movies tend to, well, just do for no good reason. It does tick off one or two good points as well and on the whole I cannot say that I regretted spending a bit more than two hours on this movie. The story is not really bad but rather overused and predictable. The science, especially the computer science, is written by someone rather clueless when it comes to informatics. On the other hand the robots are not really bad at all. The look sufficiently menacing but at the same time they look like a concept that could actually work. My two biggest gripes with the robots are that they shoot worse than imperial stormtroop

"Monsters of Man" sets out to envision a future of humanoid robotic warfare, exposing the brutal reality of surgical strikes and their civilian toll. But despite its ambition, the film stumbles—hampered by predictable plotting, unfinished CGI, and wooden performances. With illogical character choices and a thin premise, it fails to leave a lasting impact.
