A-X-L Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Mark Dujsik
What's missing is any genuine personality from the robot (or the human characters, for that matter).
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Francis X. Friel
A silly but enjoyable movie that would have felt right at home in the VHS era.
The Maine Edge
Allen Adams
A.X.L. is a sloppy, derivative outing, devoid of originality and uninterested in making any real effort.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
After 2016's Monster Trucks laid a giant goose egg at the box office, what made the folks at Global Road think this similarly themed shaggy mechanical pal tale would fare any better?
AV Club
Katie Rife
It's utterly forgettable.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Intriguing sci-fi thriller that explores what can happen when robots become smarter than humans.
Common Sense Media
Tara McNamara
Pro-STEM twist in often-violent sci-fi boy-and-"dog" tale.
Rendy Reviews
Rendy Jones
It doesn't offer anything new or exciting and it doesn't need to be in a theater. It's just there. You can watch much better family films at home.
Crooked Marquee
Eric D. Snider
A wholesome boy-and-his-dog adventure and an inoffensive PG trifle.... Meets the basic narrative requirements.
Austin Chronicle
Matthew Monagle
Like its titular character, A.X.L is a pastiche of familiar parts constructed in a lab, a blend of science-fiction and extreme sports tropes that result in little more than an audition reel for the film's young stars.
Sacramento News & Review
Jim Lane
Didn't anyone notice that the story made no sense, that it was just remnants of Short Circuit, E.T., WarGames and other better movies, strung together more or less at random?
Discussing Film
Nicolás Delgadillo
A.X.L. feels hollow, and the robotic canine star can't sell enough emotion through its metallic shell.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
It's a boy and his dog story with elements of "Pretty in Pink," "Rad" and "The Wraith," and it's those references that kinda make this movie work.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
A.X.L. feels in desperate need of repairs.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
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.
Comicsverse
Tim Stevens
It is cliché over innovation every time with A.X.L.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
... derivative of Short Circuit while generally lacking charm, surprise, or imagination.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
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.
Screen It!
Jim Judy
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)
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
When all is said and done, you're left with the nagging question: why didn't they just re-release "Monster Truck" instead?
