Finch feels downright innovative, boldly trusting that Tom Hanks training a robot to take care of his dog in a post-cataclysm Earth is a sentiment sweet and humane enough to carry an entire movie.
Perfectly balancing tense drama with charming humor, Finch highlights the best and worst of humanity, and a robot-dog friendship worth remembering.

Among the charms of Finch is its willingness not to overexplain, trusting our patience while involving us visually.
Though not originally produced with streaming in mind, Finch absolutely feels like it was designed by algorithm.
Finch ends exactly as we expect it to end — but what should be an emotional and profound conclusion feels manufactured. You don’t have to be a super-smart robot named Jeff to know when you’re being manipulated.
Finch is sweet, yet disappointingly uneventful.
A mishmash of star power, bleakness, CGI and the cutes, it will on the one hand remind you of how charmingly adaptive Hanks can be, while the same time proving just how problematic the end of the world is as a scenario for schematic heart-tugging.
Decent performances and visual effects elevate an otherwise dry post apocalyptic road trip movie that struggles to find originality with so many other stronger examples within its genre (the road, wall-e, I am legend etc) and also mixes in the 'human teaches a robot to be human' trope from films like short circuit/ chappie etc. It's entertaining at best and just a bit dry and unchallenging to watch at its worst.
Report
As good as Tom Hanks is he can't carry this movie because the story isn't very **** growing up of an Android? His skills can be used elsewhere.
