RON'S GONE WRONG

Watchable. Alicja Roethel has ensured the Polish dialogues consist of smart, witty lines. Pleasant pop music, recorded in Atmos and eye-catching effects mean it's fun to watch, visually it's superb. The action, however, is overloaded: things are happening, people talking or fighting all the time. Several elements are derivative. E.g. the tech giant president always gives speeches on a circular stage like the one Steve Jobs used, the robots reshape themselves like Transformers, the server floor looks like in "Space Jam: A New Legacy". The main messages of friendship and about companies gathering data to use for online sales are true but trite. Technology-wise the story is far-fetched. The ending is predictable. No mid- or post-credit.
