Langella provides a formidable central presence, both stubborn and endearing, while Sarsgaard injects warmth and humanity into Robot…

Review of Robot & Frank (2012)

Review of Robot & Frank (2012)

By Bruce Bennett (577) for Spectrum (St. George, Utah) (575) on 04 Oct 2012

Review of Robot & Frank (2012)

By John Beifuss (1,947) for Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) (1,944) on 09 Sep 2012

Review of Robot & Frank (2012)

By Tony Macklin (521) for tonymacklin.net (414) on 07 Sep 2012

Robot & Frank is an airy, engaging flight of fancy. It's also part caper film, part character study, and part allegory about aging…

Review of Robot & Frank (2012)

By Philip Martin (1,107) for Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (1,391) on 06 Sep 2012

What a weird, winning little movie is Robot & Frank, which explores what happens to the essential self as the memory goes…
