My Robot Sophia Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Tara McNamara
Science and invention are based on learning lessons from failure, and the lessons here are the kind that teach more than easy success ever could.
Sarah G Vincent Views
Sarah Vincent
"My Robot Sophia" does an amazing job of just offering scenes without explanation and letting the viewers derive their own meaning from the interactions.
New York Times
Alissa Wilkinson
It's an almost soulful portrait of the artist under capitalism, rather than another exposé on robotics and artificial intelligence.
Nonfics (Substack)
Christopher Campbell
My Robot Sophia shows a more human and humbling side of the tech world than is usually seen in any media...reminding us that there are likely thousands of designers like Hanson failing or struggling, yet never quitting.
Beyond the Cinerama Dome
Tina Kakadelis
The documentary begs the question: what is life? What quantifies an existence? Do science, medicine, poetry, emotions, and reproduction give us our humanity, or is it something else?
Cinemacy
Morgan Rojas
Both Sophia the documentary-as well as Sophia the most realistic humanoid robot in the world-will provoke deep questions about what it means to be human.
The Film Experience
Jason Adams
As an examination of the limits of our anthropomorphic leanings it's hard not to find yourself rooting for Sophia to gain sentience, or at least maybe just stop getting that wig snatched off and shoved into a suitcase so often
In Review Online
M.G. Mailloux
Moselle continues to refine and rework her narrative nonfiction approach to storytelling. Sophia, then, proves to be her most assured and cogent film, though with the unfortunate though not fatal side effect of also being her most staid.
POV Magazine
Jason Gorber
Like when opening the suitcases that contain the robot, there's a lot to unpack in Sophia.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
I thought it was 89 minutes of deeply uncomfortable, viscerally infuriating cinema, like a real-life version of an Alex Garland movie, and I appreciated how effectively the synthetic tale got under my very real skin.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
"Sophia" is filled with the grandeur that Hanson's big idea demands, but illuminates the constraints of what [its subject David] Hanson and his small team are capable of.
The Playlist
Robert Daniels
It's the hall of illusions Hanson projects that can often make this unnerving character portrait by Jon Kasbe ("When Lambs Become Lions") and Crystal Moselle ("Skate Kitchen" and "Betty") so enthralling, yet so disappointing.
