    Funny, and captivating. A great movie from it's time. Just fun to watch to see how technology has advanced since then.

    #5 Alive.... and running an original but retarded plot steam. Forget what you've heard this is a bad 80's flick should have never been. Robots were then like Pirates are now. Trendy.

    I remember watching this movie as a kid and loving it. I watched it again now and like it all the more! (Wonder what that says about me)

    I liked certain things about the movie back then, but like different things about it now. The most fascinating scene in the movie for me, as a kid, was Number 5 turning on the television using his own antenna when the remote is taken away from him. That is the only scene in the movie that I remembered. All the funny dialogues and movie references that the robot learnt were lost on me.

    This time around, I liked the movie even more, like I said, and I wouldn't mind watching it again.

    It doesn't always make the most sense, but that's the 80s at its best! Another Jamie and Ryan Classic.

    "Girls. Mmmmm! With brassieres and legs." "Bye-bye, goofy woman. I enjoyed repeatedly throwing you to the ground." I was annoyed by the villains in this one but Ally Sheedy makes up for it in hotness.
