Short Circuit review

Posted : 12 years ago on 7 April 2012 09:21 (A review of Short Circuit)

This was adorable and fun. I find it odd now that I somehow got through the first 26 years of my life without having ever heard of it. Usually when I watch 80s-90s films as an adult I find them pretty disappointing, but I really enjoyed this one. Johnny 5 is a lot like Wall-E but at the same time he's dissimilar enough so that neither movie suffers from the comparison. I love Stephanie Speck and her house full of animals and I kinda want to be her. I also really liked the exploration of what it means for something to be alive--it was surprisingly deep for an otherwise fluffy movie, and I think those questions are even more relevant today as we potentially approach singularity.
