Review: Ewam McDoanld

Yes, it's Robin Williams as the Tin Man with a Heart.

He plays a robo-butler, named Andrew, who arrives in a packing crate outside the home of a family destined to share him for four generations.

They must die while he must live indefinitely, apparently without the soul-mate he yearns for - though a robo-repairman may be able to help there.

Like so many recent Williams movies, this starts off with a promising scenario (it's based on an Isaac Asimov story) and slips effortlessly into slow, soppy scenes involving love and death.

Yes, one video can seem like four lifetimes.
