Never left a review but honestly if you are critiquing a film called robot overlords then I can imagine you leaving a food critic review for turd lasagne. At what point did you think a film called robot overlords would be a blockbuster, who do you think your helping!? It's obvious it is what it is! However I'm glad you took the time out of your schedule of complaining to your energy provider,bank,isp, water company and your local supermarket to state the obvious!P.s Don't be shite to the actors they've got bills to pay, your waisting your time for free! You are a fart on humanity you only serve a purpose to be laughed at get sick of and then forget :p

This is a terrible movie. I couldn't even make fun of it. It's like a really bad episode of the Twilight Zone. If you are a sci-fi fan, the story and subsequent plot holes will infuriate you.The most exciting part of the story is the war of 11 days in which the Robot Overlords managed to conquer humanity. This pinnacle event is told and not shown in 3 lines of text over a black background.Flash forward to the dystopian future where humanity has been placed under house arrest for 4 years. Cabin fever is at a peak as humanity struggles by being fit, apparently well fed, cleanly groomed with access to showers, beauty products, and laundered, tailored designer clothing. How will humanity escape their implants which may or may not do something? How do our heroes not suffer permanent damage from being repeatedly electrocuted? What is the robot master plan?Use your imagination, you will probably come up with something better

For some reason this movie reminded me of a Famous Five story - possible because when I started watching it I didn't know it was aimed at a pre-teen to teen audience, however that soon became clear...Group of kids on an adventure to save humanity from robots that have overrun the Earth and made everyone prisoners in their own homes.Low budget, but surprisingly good effects and acting, story line that flows well, but not much to it and most of the situations the are not realistic.I don't really think this one is for the Sci-Fi fans - there's just not enough Sci and too much Fi!Would appeal to ages 10 to 16 or so, not much of a target audience which is why this film is getting low scores.I give it 6 because it is good for a low budget movie and deserves more credit than it is getting.

After eleven days of war, robots from outer space domain the earthlings. People receive implants and are confined inside their houses while collaborators distribute supplies for the families. The teenager Sean Flynn (Callan McAuliffe) misses his father Danny (Steven Mackintosh), who is a pilot, and his mother Kate (Gillian Anderson) is constantly harassed by the collaborator Robin Smythe (Ben Kingsley). One day, Sean, his teenage friends Nathan (James Tarpey) and his sister Alexandra (Ella Hunt) and the orphan boy Connor (Milo Parker) accidentally discover how to turn off the implants for thirteen hours, using a battery with damaged contacts. The leave their house during the curfew to seek out Danny and soon Sean discovers that he has the ability of controlling the robots. Meanwhile Smythe is hunting them down. Will the youngsters succeed in their intent?"Robot Overlords" is a watchable sci-fi that is sort of Terminator and Transformers franchises entwined in a silly story for teens. The film entertains but despite the names of Ben Kingsley and Gillian Anderson, it is only reasonable. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Sob o Domínio dos Robôs" ("Under the Domain of the Robots")
