MUMBAI: This Friday, let the family fun begin!!! Star Movies presents
a heart-warming story of an ambitious robot from a small town, which
has a gift of inventing things and a hope of moving beyond his quaint
surroundings. Tune in to the exclusive premiere of the fun filled
animation film "Robots" starring Ewan McGregor, Mel Brooks,
Halle Berry, Greg Kinnear, Amanda Bynes, Drew Carey and Robin Williams
this Friday, December 22nd at 9 p.m. only on Star Movies.
 The
pixel-happy production company Blue Sky follows its successful feature
Ice Age with more animated antics in Robots. Rodney Copperbottom
(voiced by Ewan McGregor) is a talented inventor who hopes to make
his fortune by moving to Robot City and working among the nuts and
bolts of the robotics industry. Rodney fantasizes about building
robots for his boyhood hero and master inventor Big Weld (Mel Brooks),
but when he meets him, Rodney's dream threatens to turn rusty.
Big Weld reveals that his company is now being run by the evil
Phineas T. Ratchet (Greg Kinnear), a merciless moneymaker who wants
to rid the world of the antiquated robots that clutter up the streets
of Robot City. This leaves Rodney's aspirations needing a major
oil change, and with little chance of finding work, he feels about
as useful as a broken spare part.
So he takes to the streets, where he finds some unlikely salvation
in a group of robots lead by Fender (Robin Williams). Fender urges
Rodney to help save them from the scrap heap, while Ratchet and
his company create threatening new policies on robot reconstruction.
The ensuing action leads to a breathtaking set of adventures in
the futuristic city.
A fun, dizzying delight, ROBOTS benefits from the many voices of
Robin Williams, who is the perfect comic foil to Ewan McGregor's
central character. The special effects are masterfully handled,
and the rendering of Robot City is a true sight to behold. Robots
presents fast-paced animated entertainment at its finest.
So tune in to the exclusive premiere of Robots, this Friday night,
December 22nd at 9 p.m. only on Star Movies.
