Recently I
watched the movie "Robot and Frank" This movie is about how a humanoid robot
helps a senior citizen named Frank . The humanoid was a present to Frank from
his son, Hunter. Frank at first hated the robot, but eventually overtime, Frank
and the robot created a very strong relationship. The humanoid cooks for Frank,
tends the garden, walks with him, and is even his personal calendar. The
humanoid reminds Frank what time it is and when to wake up or to go to sleep.
Frank and the humanoid eventually become great friends.
Frank in his
younger days was a jewel thief. Now with his robot friend he figured he could
teach the robot how help him rob again. So Frank and the robot robbed an
extremely rich and mean person, who lived in his community. The police realized
that the only way to prove Frank did it, was to check the robot’s memory,
because the robot helped in the theft. Realizing this, Frank, even though he
hated to do such a thing, erased the robot’s memory to save himself. Even
though the police had no evidence of Frank’s theft, his son took the robot away
from Frank and sent him to a seniors’ center. At the end, what was so sad was
that other members at the senior center had their own robots that looked
exactly the same as Frank’s.
