Robot Wars (1993) is a Full Moon Feature I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a futuristic world in the year 2032 where a gas has been unleashed on the surface making it virtually inhabitable. Groups of survivors scour the Earth's surface using large robots they can drive. One pilot decides leadership is no good and quits, until it is brought to his attention leadership's desire to unleash a new robot that could destroy humanity. The pilot may be the only one who can stop the new super robot.
This movie is directed by Albert Band (Ghoulies II) and stars Don Michael Paul (Jarhead: Law of Return), Barbara Crampton (You're Next), James Staley (National's Lampoons Vacation), Lisa Rinna (Days of Our Lives), Danny Kamekona (The Karate Kid Part II) and Yuji Okumoto (Inception).
The storyline for this is very straightforward; however, the robot special effects are awesome and the claymation is fun. I did really enjoy the robot fight scenes. The acting isn't good, especially the main character. The writing and the dialogue are solid. The sets were also pretty cool.
Overall this is is a very average movie that's a fun popcorn flick for those who enjoy 80s caliber science fiction pictures. I would score this a 5.5/10 and recommend seeing it once.
