Eyeborgs is set in a near-future where security cameras have sprouted legs and scurry around keeping an eye on everyone. Worse, they’re also vicious law enforcers, and as they evolve from cute little robo-cyclopses to deranged giant Transformers they acquire some serious firepower. Who’s controlling them, or could they be controlling themselves? The plot doesn’t always add up, and some of the dialogue is so formulaic that you start to wonder if robots might be behind the scripting as well, but the pace is fast and the violence messy, and the pairing of two contemporary fears – of a surveillance society, and of machine sentience – just about does enough to sustain interest till the credits roll.
