Hey guys
I just joined but I'm really anxious to use this site. I've been trying to figure out this movie. Its about a father and a son. As I recall the father looks like simon cowell but I'm not 100% sure. Its about the father making his son into a robot. I remember vaguely three scenes that I can tell:
1-The robot son was left behind on a school trip or something and the bus left him so the boy started running but he ran super fast to catch up to the bus and when he walks on the bus he asks one of the guys to give him the money he was holding.
2-I remember that the robot son was low on battery, he checked his gauge in his forearm or something and he was at a girls house so he asked her to go to the bathroom and when he was in there, he pulled out a long plug and started charging his body and he slept for about two hrs or so
3-I remember the last scene where his father and girlfriend was stuck in a car in a junk yard and was getting crushed by those car demolisher and the son had to hurry and run and search for them and once he found them I think he stopped the machine from destroying the car...
This has been bothering me for a while, please help. Thanks a lot in advance :)
