One of these men is Robin Smythe. He tries to get Kate Flynn to be his wife but she still mourns her husband whom Smythe says died. But her son Sean, doesn't believe it. He sends messages out asking anyone who knows anything about his father to tell him. One day he and three young people are fooling around when they discover that they turned off their implant.

And when the robots corner Sean he somehow manages to control them. So the Robots are curious why he can do that. So they tell Smythe to capture him.

| Hollywood ReporterLeslie FelperinSurprises are few and far between, but what makes it a bit better than average compared to other live-action kids' films is the jaunty banter. |
| HeyUGuysAndrew JonesA film for older children and people young at heart. |
| Total FilmNeil SmithOverlords has its share of clunky moments yet nonetheless proves, like Monsters before it, what can be achieved when you’re short of cash but rich in imagination. |
| Contactmusic.comRich ClineFor a low-budget kids' movie, this British science-fiction adventure has an unusually sharp cast, decent effects and... |
| VarietyGuy LodgeEven with such generic scripting, however, there’s a genial, palpably enthusiastic chemistry between the four young, capable stars that gives their hijinks a bit of bounce. |

| Times (UK)Kate MuirRobot Overlords would be better as a children's television series than a cinema release, despite the presence of Ben Kingsley and Gillian Anderson. |
