Hot Bot is not all bad!

OK. I won't tell you it is a "great flick" but it is not that bad. I don't really understand the bashing about it. I perceived anger in some reviews. I welcome all opinions and feelings but it is like some people are watching a movie with very specific expectations about what they want to see or not see. As for me I saw some good sides in it. It is absurd and surreal in a lot of ways and that is a pretty decent quality to me. There is no sophisticated humor in it and some lines are excessively trashy which is not necessary. The use of foul language does not always make a scene funny. However I saw a reflection about the education and the conditioning that we are all going through in our society and how it determines our behavior. The scene with Limus's little sister Shaqobi with Bardot the hot chick robot in the doll house illustrate that and I though it was pretty funny. The acting is also quite decent and it looks like improvisation has been used in many scenes sometimes successfully and it requires talent to do that. Of course there are flaws in the script and the editing. The director seems to have done better works in the past but it is not as bad as it is rated and comedy is a very tricky craft...
