Two DeBaser reviews cover Jake Schreier's Robot & Frank (2012) and Città di Carta (Paper Towns, 2015). Critics offer moderate praise for watchability, character work, and themes of technology and friendship while noting flaws such as uneven acting and conventional teen tropes.

For:Readers interested in indie sci-fi, films about aging and caregiving, and teen coming-of-age stories.

 Three stars to the film because it made me smile and did not bore me.

 The robot will give Frank not so much a new youth, but that strength to continue wanting to live his life.
