I was quite curious about this, but in the end, it turned out there wasn't much reason to be. This is a poor rehash of the movie I, Robot, lacking action and anything new to offer to the film. The film still revolves around a theme that Asimov explored best, and the Spaniards didn't say anything new in this regard.

Ein harmloser Science-Fiction-Film, der liebe Roboter und Blade Runner mag. Ihm reicht der Stoff, mit dem ein echter Knaller erst starten würde. Die Glatze, der Agenten-Mantel mit Schlips und kontaminierte postapokalyptische Wüsten passen zu Banderas.

Initially I wondered what about this film could be Bulgarian. After seeing it I realized that such scenes of a post-communist concrete world appropriate for a post-apocalyptic sci-fi would be hard to find in any other country. It is filmed in an interesting, brave and innovative way. The world of 2044 is really believable. However, the storyline is worse, as at times you have no idea what is actually happening. You only know that it has something to do with robots and you are drowning in scenes which at times have no clear connections. Over time the premise sets in and even though the second half is a bit more boring, the ending balances that out with a decent shoot off. Sci-fi in general is a difficult genre to film and a well-filmed flick is worth some respect. This film is one of those.

More sci-fi drama than thriller, no suspense or atmosphere came to me. Antonio Banderas is bland here, the theme of robots is so uninteresting and tedious that you'd rather be playing a game of Tic-Tac-Toe. I don't recommend the film, it's slow and uninteresting as hell, which I can't explain coming from such an attractive French-Spanish co-production.

A visually impressive sci-fi in Philip K. Dick style, crossed with Asimov. A slightly jerky storyline about an insurance agent who unwittingly comes up against a case of unavoidable evolution of species essentially doesn’t offer anything new, but it’s the crudeness of the movie that grabs the attention. Banderas plays very well, but it’s evidently against the grain for him. An atmosphere somewhere between Blade Runner and Elyse and I would welcome hearing other tales coming from this gloomy, radioactive future. Maybe I’m overrating it a little, but really only a little. P.S.: Great opening credits in Socialist realism style.
