A sweet-natured robot called Johnny Five escapes from its lab and wanders around the big city with only curiosity to guide him. His silly inventor, an Indian man who ludicrously butchers the English language, teams up with some local retailers to re-capture his wayward creation. Meanwhile, the plucky robot is in danger of falling into the greedy hands of a businessman who wants to turn the automaton into a motorized jewel thief. (official distributor synopsis)

It's such a tedious nonsense that relies on the presence of some characters from the previous installment - well, actually two, and one of them is Number 5. It's not very entertaining, rather just a bit crazy, and of course, there is a good ending that cannot be missed. It's a standard, family-friendly ending with nothing surprising. Even the nostalgia didn't help here.
