Review of Robot & Frank (2012) by Thomas P — 20 Sep 2014

Wonderfully heartfelt, hilarious in its intelligent slyness - a tiny quiet film that fully entertains.

An unexpected delight.

I doubt you'll see where this movie goes unless you've looked it up and ruined the surprises for yourself, but I loved this movie.

It deals with the subject of aging and family connections, and the absence of such.

And then it quietly takes a side road into some intriguing territory.

I loved it.

And I loved the ending especially.

I had heard nothing about the movie, except from two ppl who had seen it only said that it did not go the way they thot it would, as a good thing.

I was intrigued, and after seeing it, I can see why it won awards and even reached a few top ten lists.

A few f-bombs for humor might be off putting, and some family arguing, so be warned.

Brilliantly heartfelt. Quietly engaging, and amusingly adventurous.
