      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    A riveting story of determination, Robots tells the tale of a young robot who takes a stand against upgrades. Rivet Town native Rodney Copperbottom (McGregor) is an inventor who heads to Robot City to meet his hero, Bigweld (Brooks). But he is faced with a corrupt corporation that wants to rid the world of repairable

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture looks fantastic and is a surefire pleaser for the whole family. You will go nuts over the vibrant color scheme that pops from the screen. The picture is sharp and nicely detailed, with a fantastic sense of dimension. On occasion, picky viewers may notice a slight smeared or blurred effect at times, but the look does not screw up the visual experience. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
