  1. No. 5 is a prototype battlefield weapon that can maneuver, seek out enemy targets and blast them with a laser ray. "Short Circuit" opens with a demonstration of the machine - which is struck by a bolt of lightning that fries its circuits and gives it the impression that it can think for itself.

  5. The robot, called Number 5, meets a woman (Ally Sheedy), who befriends it and tries to help it. As the military hunt for the escaped robot, two scientists (Steve Guttenberg, Fisher Stevens) try to find it first. A heartfelt sci-fi comedy that's funny, positive, and extremely entertaining.

  7. May 9, 1986 · Short Circuit: Directed by John Badham. With Ally Sheedy, Steve Guttenberg, Fisher Stevens, Austin Pendleton. Number 5 of a group of experimental robots in a lab is electrocuted, suddenly becomes intelligent, and escapes.

  8. Short Circuit is an obvious WarGames ripoff in which a robot steals every scene from wooden performances by the always-too-eager-to-please Steve Guttenberg and the usually likable Ally Sheedy. See all 12 reviews on Metacritic.com
