Robots was a crazy film for 2005. It has the evils of capitalism, evils of corporate culture, planned obsolescence, only one woman in the boardroom (she’s being harassed), designating people ‘outmodes’ then kidnapping them, nepotism, sweepers roaming the street to take whoever they think looks like an ‘outmode’ whether they are or not, immigrants having to change their names (bumper), community action being crushed by the CEOs, supposed leaders not actually doing anything to help, the way to solve the problem is to band together as a community to kill the CEOs or leave them hanging stripped of their ‘parts’
