About
You may enjoy this if you like loud, campy sci-fi action with killer robots and gang-war chaos in the vein of The Running Man or Virtuosity; Not for you if you want subtle drama or polished realism.
Pros: wild robot-teacher premise; fast, trashy fun; cult B-movie energy | Cons: thin story; cheesy effects; hard-to-like students
