A.X.L.

Dear movie freaks, for me AXL is not 100% Sci Fi movie because the touch of the drama is so high, then the main story of what happened to a young boy finding a super secret military weapon, apparently in the body shape of a dog, could find a way to escape from the law and highly officials. This movie has simple story, but evolved in some scenes to be more intense with young audience, especially Sci Fi lover. At least, there is several scenes that explain the Sci Fi part, but the whole idea is not science at all. It is totally drama, but AXL is everybody's movie, quite tense, and sad. The saddest part is how the new owner of this robotic dog must realize that the connection human-robot is real and how he can survive without any accusations against him.

There is nothing inherently wrong with AXL, just that it is not very good. The actors are all right, the story predictable, the filming somewhat laborious, the music over-dramatic. It tries hard to be film of substance, but the storyline is too weak. Probably much better suited for 10-year-olds than the teens it seems to be aiming at.

There're not many older kid's movie. All Marvel or nothing. This is great one for 8-12 yrs kids.

Incredibly formulaic, if youve ever seen a teen movie, youve seen this. its something only middle schoolers and grandparents can enjoy, but, hey, at least the cgi was decent.

I have watched this film in AMC couple of days after it got released. I don't see the review before watching this movie, so enjoyed this movie. This is pretty decent movie with what it was promised in the trailer. Mossy of the review was having negative reviews coz this movie lacks humor. Not every movie needs the humor dialogs, scenes in each frames. Making is good, camera work is pretty well. Story line is ok. It's little slow in some part of the movie which needed to be taken care. Not bad for one time watch.
