A story of friendship, Robot & Frank is a charming movie with a great cast, so it’s a surprise that Sony has made it available only on DVD, with no Blu-ray.
The film stars Frank Langella (All Good Things) as, well, Frank, an ex-jewel thief who lives alone away from his two grown children (Armeggedon‘s Liv Tyler and Straw Dogs‘ James Marsden). Worried about his father’s wellfare, Marsden gives Frank a robot caretaker. At first, Frank resists his new roommate, but when he discovers the robot has some unique talents, Frank softens and the two begin to be friends. Until the law comes after them…
Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise) also stars in the movie, as well as Jeremy Sisto (TV’s Suburgatory) and the voice of Peter Sarsgaard (An Education) as the robot.
Robot & Frank was highly acclaimed by critics.
