Short Circuit gives us a hilarious experience through the eyes of protagonist NOVA Robotics Number 5. Number 5 lives a "life" as a robot that is supposedly "alive" and killable. Short Circuit is an incredibly recommended film for teens and adults out there that are seeking a lust for comedy.

Roger Ebert 12 Jul 2006

Too bad that robots, unlike humans, cannot be discovered in one movie and go on to star in another. I'd like to see No. 5 in a film more suitable to its talents.

Paul Attanasio 08 Aug 2009

Having succeeded at a persuasive, endearing anthropomorphosis, the film makers have come up with only a so-so picture to go with it. All that was really needed to make Short Circuit a more satisfying experience was to up the script a couple of notches and apply a lighter touch to it. Unfortunately, director John Badham and his fledgling writers have taken a very broad, heavy-handed approach.

Great 80S movie about a Robot who is alive! Unlike a lot of other movies this is not a fast paced movie but a light hearted story about #5 and his journey to stay alive.

Cuteness is never far off, though Badham has enough sense of pace, and the robotics are sufficiently inventive, to keep the laughs coming. Only Guttenberg's tongue-twisted Asian sidekick (Stevens) is off-key.
