This thing is nuts. It's like you put Blade Runner, Metropolis, Tetsuo the Iron Man, and The Room in a blender then just pieced it together as it came out and played it back at high speed on an old tube TV with the color on the fritz. It's really not hard to follow, like some have said, at all since the thematic concepts are straight forward: a dystopian future where sentient robots fight and run for their lives from mean humans. I can name a few dozen shows or movies that have the same basic theme. But where this series (?? It's a one episode series??, why not just call it a short film) really stands out is the visuals, I've truly never seen anything like this And I don't think I could adequately describe it here. You really should check this out, It's 30 minutes so not much of a risky investment time wise.

~30 minutes of my life that would have been better spent watching an ant hill through a kaleidoscope.

If you want to see terrible acting and horrible visual effects , so bad you will have a headache in the first fifteen minutes if you make it that long, this is the show to do it. I have read bad reviews for shows I thought were decent but this is not one of them. The first reviews I read on this show must be internal, they were ridiculously generous.

Makes no sense , lacks a good story line , filming is horrible. The only good news is you can switch channels.

This show is so sick in how it uses impression of past ages to tell it's story. They say they were trying to give a feel of olden time science fiction with the fast action stye of today. It worked. The campy acting fits perfectly. It is like watching an old cliffhanger created in modern times. I heard a podcast with one of the actresses Natasha Coppola-Shalom who plays a little flying robot say that it took them years to get it right. The only negative is I wanted more when it was over and they are releasing each episodes every few months in instillment to be like the Saturday morning cliffhangers of the golden age of cinema. The nudity was surprising but so well handled that I identified with the blue pleasure robot that eventually becomes Chrome. I don't want to create any spoilers. This series will not be everybody's cup of tea as it is not the standard cookie cutter superhero movie audiences are used to. Nor is it like the clean special effect sophistication of a Transformers movie but they clearly didn't want it to be that way. Natasha Coppola-Shalom said they used mostly models and real world effects over CGI. If you are after action and fun and want to see a movie designed like a golden age science-fiction you will love this. A lot of information goes by super fast so you will probably want to watch it twice like I did.
