‘Finch’

Is the movie about Tom Hanks, a dog, and a robot going to win an Oscar? Of course not. But sometimes when you’re knee-deep in the super-serious, critically-acclaimed films that make up awards season, you can help but be charmed by the pure, fatherly love between Tom Hanks and a talking robot. That’s exactly what happened to me with Finch, the post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama that is now streaming on Apple TV+. Hanks stars as one of the few survivors of deadly solar flares that have destroyed the earth. Thankfully, he has a dog and the robot he invented to keep him company. It’s heartfelt, clichéd, and at times, bleak, but darned if I wasn’t endeared by it.
