Miles is a young man who one day meets a robotic dog, A.X.L., who has been developed by the army to protect the soldiers. After they live together for much time, they becomes best friends. The army is back now to get their dog, the thing that may change the whole lives of Miles and A.X.L.
By the time he develops rabies and has to be put down out back behind the shed (sorry, wrong boy and his dog story, but you get the point), we simply don't care. (Full Content Review for Parents - Violence, Profanity, etc. - also Available)
Meanwhile, the scientists who lost A-X-L spend half the movie watching these events unfold on a computer screen, doing not a danged thing because they want to see how it all pans out. They are, it must be said, lousy scientists.
While familiarity shadows the endeavor, "A.X.L." gets by on little blasts of excitement and the core relationship between a meek young man and the robotic war dog he befriends.
