About This Movie

Next Gen is this interesting blend of action and animation that takes you on a ride through a futuristic world. The pacing is pretty tight, balancing thrilling sequences with some genuine moments of connection between the girl and her robot friend. The film explores themes of friendship and resilience, which adds depth to the otherwise high-energy scenes. The visual style stands out, too—there’s a colorful, almost comic book vibe that enhances the adventure aspect. Performances are engaging, particularly from the lead, who really brings out the loneliness and eventual empowerment of her character. It's not just a straightforward kids' movie; it has layers that might surprise you. Plus, the practical effects, especially in robot design, are quite impressive for this kind of animation.
