A film about robots and zombies on a limited budget just sounds like a bad idea. I'm hoping for the best, and I'm digging Dolph's look... I still don't have the best feeling about it. Of course, this is also judging from the director's previous work, which had laughably bad special effects.
That's a little unfair... I've seen Robotropolis, and it has far better effects than many SyFy movies, and sometimes their budget is at least three times what Robotropolis costs. I'd imagine having Dolph on board writes bigger cheques, nudging the budget up to between $6-8 mil.
