An endearing outlier, Brian lives alone in a Welsh valley, inventing oddball contraptions that seldom work. After finding a discarded mannequin head, Brian gets an idea. Three days, a washing machine, and sundry spare parts later, he’s invented Charles, an artificially intelligent robot who learns English from a dictionary and proves a charming, cheeky companion. Before long, however, Charles also develops autonomy. Intrigued by the wider world — or whatever lies beyond the cottage where Brian has hidden him away — Charles craves adventure.

User Reviews

I have no word to describe this movie. It’s a UFO! It’s crazy and good fun to watch!

Johan Hermansson

Heartfelt and easy. Not a complex story, but has a lot of warmth. Earl and Hayward are great together.

Super odd but makes you smile the entire time. I loved how he changed as he learned more about the world.

Short and sweet. Loved the evolution of Charles and the quaintness of the story.

Amanda O'Driscoll

A heart warming story about an unconventional friendship. It's like Wallace and gromit and pinnochio. Very sweet

Caleb The Movie Guy

One of my favourite movies of the year funny, British and full of heart highly recommended it

It’s as sweet and charming as the premise is silly. Provides a depth of emotion that is hard to replicate else where.

Funny and sweet. The humor in this movie is top notch. Charles is such a scallywag

Michael Franznick

Cute story just barely gets dark. Obvious Father, Son, mob references. Easy if a but off putting.

A charming British "Revenge of the Nerds" story.
