I've been seeing this often lately on tv, and tho I'm still off superhero movies for the most part, this one works for me. It doesn't drag too much, we get a heroine who has issues but overcomes them, ... |

You're absolutely right. Your bot doesn't have a vulnerable rear... it has vulnerable sides!

I like this movie quite a bit. Not only did it come out the year I was born, it isn't too crazy or loud (til near the end).
