It is a really, really moving film about loneliness, and overcoming loneliness...

A wonderful, wonderful movie.

"Robot Dreams" is a lovingly rendered and deceptively simple animated tale that is bursting with soul and spirit and informed by the crushing pangs of loss.
| Original Score: A | Jul 11, 2024
Regardless, the attention to detail is stunning, evoking an equal amount of awe and nostalgia. It truly feels like a trip back in time, right down to the graffiti-covered subways and the feeling that you could see the Twin Towers from anywhere in town.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Jun 20, 2024
Robot Dreams, loosely based on a graphic novel by Sarah Varon, is a true original—one of a kind. That’s a tribute to the storytelling skills of Pablo Berger and his collaborators

Pablo Berger’s Robot Dreams is imaginative, bittersweet, and unrelentingly, almost unbearably, twee.

It leaves a lot of room for interpretation – depending on how you come to it, you could read Dog and Robot’s relationship as platonic or romantic, straight or queer – but the takeaway is all tenderness.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 13, 2024
It’s a relationship allegory where the allegory part is more resonant than the story itself and the whole thing struck me as rather ... mild.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 11, 2024
In Robot Dreams, the bold clarity of the line drawings matches the clean simplicity of the plot — which, perhaps ironically, fires our imaginations even further.

Robot Dreams feels real and surreal, familiar and bizarre, resulting in unexpected authenticity.
| Original Score: B+ | Jun 6, 2024
Berger’s film is rich, genuine and achingly real. Never mind this Manhattan’s menagerie -- Robot Dreams is a movie that is all too human.

Spanish director Pablo Berger has made a movie that feels, in the best way, like the last day of summer: radiant, bittersweet, redolent of memories in the making.

Alas, this sense of invention struggles to coalesce into something more than merely cute. Even the less happy notes seem too carefully calibrated -- little morsels of melancholy that dissolve all too quickly and leave one feeling not quite satisfied.

This is an absolutely extraordinary work of art, done in a way that suggests both Saturday morning cartoons and Sunday-night prestige-온라인카지노추천 dramedies. It’s also a nine-Kleenex-box movie, and earns every saline-soaked tissue eventually wadded at your feet.

[A] film that is often truly lyrical, a creative exploration of relatable emotion that transports viewers to a world where robots dream of much more than electric sheep.
| Original Score: 3/4 | May 31, 2024
“Robot Dreams” leaves us to ponder what its voiceless leads leave unspoken: Is opening our lives to others worth the pain?
| May 30, 2024
Robot Dreams movingly turns into a story about moving on while still cherishing the good times you once shared with someone -- a valuable lesson to young and old, in friendship and romance.

I greatly admire the voluptuous, free-form lyricism of animators like Hayao Miyazaki, but what Berger does here, in its own scaled-down way, is just about as robust. He’s a voluptuary of the everyday.
| Original Score: 5/5 | May 29, 2024
Pablo Berger's film effortlessly brings a sense of universality to its story.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 26, 2024
Adults, however, may get a Proustian rush from its evocation of 1980s body-popping, boombox-blaring, graffiti-strewn New York and lightly submerged gay subtext.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 29, 2024
