In 2020, Elias van Dorne (John Cusack), CEO of VA Industries, the world's largest robotics company, introduces his most powerful invention--Kronos, a super computer designed to end all wars. When Kronos goes online, it quickly determines that mankind, itself, is the biggest threat to world peace and launches a worldwide robot attack to rid the world of the "infection" of man. Ninety-seven years later, a small band of humans remain alive but on the run from the robot army. A teenage boy, Andrew (Julian Schaffner) and a teenage girl, Calia (Jeannine Wacker), form an unlikely alliance to reach a new world, where it is rumored mankind exists without fear of robot persecution. But does this world actually exist? And will they live long enough to find out?

My quick rating - 3,8/10. This movie had no idea what it wanted to be. Starts off looking nice, effects wise, and by the end, you think it was kids in a class learning how to make the landscapes look real, and the robots look like crayon drawings. The twist is thrown in for the sake of a twist, none of which is a surprise. Everyone including Cusak seems bored with the script. Nothing was done well at all. I honestly don't know how this got past post production. The cool idea of the movie is breezed through in the first 3 minutes, and then the remainder of the flick plods through to a very disappointing ending. And worse yet, it made it appear like it led to a sequel. OMG pls no....
