Top 10 Best Robot Flicks Of All Time


When it comes to science-fiction films, movies about robots seem to reign supreme. This is because the electronic wonders seem to amaze everyone, from Grandma and Grandpa to your 4-year old sibling. But looking back, which films can be classified as the greatest robot movies ever?

The following list highlights some of the major robotic movies critics and audience members have witnessed throughout time. Arguably people can say that because of technology, the more recent movies are the best. But that isn’t entirely true; the best movie isn’t always about special effects. Instead, that particular movie has to also have a great storyline and an acceptable lasting value.

Cutting to the chase, here are the top 10 best robot flicks of all time.

ugh

that lost in space film shouldn't be on there (then it should be the older one if any) and star wars should come in the top three. A.I should come further down too.


swt

robocop? imho, there're so many other shows which deserve better to top the list.


Not bad...

... But Robocop gets #1?? seriously?? Do yourself a favor and rent a movie called "robot wars" - then re-write this list ;-)
