Heartbeeps (1981)
9/10
Life through the eyes of a robot
27 January 2024
This is not your typical life story. Robots are mechanical and inhuman. But when they start to think about life, that's where it becomes interesting. Two servant robots Val and Aqua(Andy Kaufman and Bernadette Peters) started seeing the sunset, they are curious about life. They see trees, confront a bear, and elude a malfunctioning robot probe. They steal a van along with a robotic comedian. They set out on a journey with their "child" in tow. They found more parts in a junkyard.

This is a movie with Andy Kaufman at his best. Sadly it was the last big screen for him. Other than that, it has a good cast. Great for the young at heart. An early version of "Short Circuit". Without the obscenity.

4.5 out of 5 stars.
