Johndroid

I thought this movie started strongly but lost its way a little. The premise was cool - Johndroid has lots of good ideas - for example the ending was warm, funny and surprising. Not sure it pulled all the parts together along the way though. And it was obviously a tricky one for the actors - I don't envy their task - communicating feelings while being robotic, all in under 7minutes. The bits of sfx they used to boost the concept worked well and I think the film would have benefited from more of this.

This was a sweet movie where a guy drops dead but is saved by cyborg surgery. The downside to the lifesaving surgery is that now he whirrs, clicks and twitches all night keeping his girlfriend awake so she leaves him. But in a nice wrap up she has the same surgery so they can be together. Nice idea and nice twist on the genre, good work.
