He appears to have been given a powerful humanitarian thunderbolt, as 'Number 5' escapes from an experimental electronics company. In those moments, the number X turns to the home of an animal-loving peace activist, convinced that the mechanical man is quite far from the planet.

A film that demands emotional connections with a robot whose voice is one of the most annoying ever produced. Give us Hal, R2-D2 or a barber shop quartet of Daleks any day.

The movie, which has the clean, well-scrubbed look of an old Disney comedy, is nicely acted by Miss Sheedy, who demonstrates a light-comedy touch not unlike Amy Irving's [and] Mr. Guttenberg.

The film has nowhere to go except to give us a predictable initial confrontation between Guttenberg and Sheedy over military weapons.
