If you are looking for science- there is none. Halfway through the humour dies and it's all mushy romance and emotional dialogues. Apparently the Government is OK with scientists accessing 3 billion dollar black project from the comfort of their home. They are even OK with bunch of kids hacking into their network and even letting them all walk away like nothing happened!

And the girl? Well, she's devastated when she learns her robot boyfriend is doing good stuff like helping people across the globe (like building schools). How could he leave her!? I quote: "Albert would never do this to me! He'll realize he's not a soldier and he'll come back to me!" And this is when I decided to eject the disc.
