"loud and hard to follow, "on the evidence of my son's enthusiasm, the film is clearly just the ticket for eight-year-old boys."
So, what do you think of that?
And she's a grown-up.
Yeah, and she didn't like it either.
Just like Brain.
It stunk.
Uh-huh.
Well, I'm not finished yet.
You know, I've always wanted to try my hand at film criticism.

"Hi everybody, my name is Buster Baxter.
"I'm eight years old, and this is what I think about Giant Exploding Robots 3D."
Wait a minute.
You wrote something for the paper?
"Nobody understands this great movie.
"It is not just a lot of explosions.
"The inventor is not just a car mechanic.
"His dad was a scientist who put a bionic brain in his head "when he was a baby.
"The bionic brain makes him insane when he grows up "and so he builds armies of robots.
"There are good and bad robots, and they have amazing battles, "and I won't tell you the end "except that it's totally believable "something 317 times as big as Earth can blow up.
"After all, what is a supernova?
Can anybody tell me that?
Huh?"
Is this for real?
Uh-huh.
Last night, when I told my mom all about the movie, she got this idea to have us both write reviews.
"On the Buster scale, Giant Exploding Robots 3D rates a ten."
Ten-plus.
(Brain chuckling) Not to rain on your parade, Buster, but that analysis is riddled with... FRANCINE: "On the Buster scale?"
Wow, you have a scale?
You know, come to think of it, that inventor was insane.
Yeah, he was.
The movie makes a lot more sense now.
It was a ten-plus.
