Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Every week we rate the robot from a movie, if it gets a score of 7 out of 10 then we say that it is not a shit robot. Today, we toke on a Gauloises cigarette, pout moodily, and regardez the French New Wave movie, Alphaville. Alpha 60 is full of existential angst but is it a shit robot?
WARNING! The S**t-bomb is sometimes uttered but nothing more.
