I must admit that I had expected a bit more from the 2019 movie titled "Automation" than what writers Rolfe Kanefsky, Matthew L. Schaffer and Garo Setian managed to deliver.
And director Garo Setian wasn't really stepping up to improving on the enjoyment of the movie. I managed to endure 35 mind-boggling minutes of the ordeal that is "Automation", before I just gave up out of sheer and utter boredom.
The storyline was lacking elements to make it worthwhile or interesting to watch. So we are talking a massive dosage of boredom in your face when you sit down to watch this movie. And it didn't do much for the movie that the characters and the robot in the movie were pointless, bland and essentially faceless drones milling about with no purpose, no story or nothing to offer.
This was pure boredom compiled into movie form, and I have no intention of returning to watch the rest of the movie. And yeah, I don't really care that Auto - the robot - apparently is going homicidal or something, according to the synopsis. The storyline and characters just ultimately failed to entertain me.
My rating of "Automation" is a mere two out of ten stars, based mostly on the production level the movie had. Do yourself a favor and stay well clear of "Automation", as there are far better sci-fi movies readily available out there.
