Film Summary
A young girl, Pok, discovers several robots whose survived and escaped from the apocalyptic war, leaving the land of the robots in ruins and no new parts. With the help of her friendly robot named Robit, they began to journey on a fantastic journey across the universe as cabin boy aboard a majestic space galleon, accompanied by the greedy robot who wants to put the robots' new parts out of business.

Plot
In the alternate history, the Mushroom Bomb lands on Earth, destroying part of the world and it falls into the post-apocalyptic town.

10 years later, a young adolescent girl, Pok Tezuka, became separated from her grandmother after the apocalyptic war against the robots, leaving the town in ruins. She met her robot friends, the hand-working Wayne (Seth Rogen), the stupid and grumpy Cliff (Russell Brand), the dim-witted Dru (Bill Hader), and the former actress Brooke (Rihanna), which they run out of new parts. One day, the pirates chases after her. During the chase, she met a crazy robot named Robit (Jack Black) and his former invention, Wonderbot.

Robit, Pok, and the other robots is later captured by the pirates and was taken into the ship. The ship is commanded by the feline Captain Amelia along with her stone-skinned and disciplined first mate, Mr. Arrow. The crew is a motley bunch, secretly led by the half-robot former cook and current general Maul, whom Robit suspects is the cyborg he was betrayed his own kind. Jim is sent down to work in the galley, where he is supervised by Maul and his shape-shifting pet, Morph. Despite Robit's mistrust of Maul, Maul reveals himself to be a bad robot that wants to turn robots into slaves (which the truth was later confirmed in his nightmare).

Spending one day in the ship, the other robots are received by the visit of the kangaroo-like friend, Shellia, and his son, Reo. During the voyage, the ship encounters a supernova. Robit, while securing lifelines of all crew members, saves Maul from falling just in time. The supernova then devolves into a black hole and Mr. Arrow is shortly sucked into it. Pok abandons the ship, along with his robots, causing to Maul targets to blast Pok. The fugitives are shot down by a mutineer during their escape, injuring Brooke.

Eventually, Pok and Robit begins fixing old robots in the neighborhood. Upon discovering this, Maul orders Shellia to stop Robit and destroy the world. One night, as the pirates corner the group here; using a back-door, Pok reunites again with his grandmother in return to the ship in an attempt to steal the treasure. Shellia attacks them but gets thrown into space, which causes Reo joins the group to the good side. They obtain the treasure, but upon returning they are caught by Maul, who already captured Wayne, Cliff, Dru, and Brooke. Moments after steals the treasure, a second Mushroom Bomb strikes and destroy the post-apocalyptic city, spreading destruction in its wake. Pok and his friends flee and jump across the sea to the mainland, but Pok's younger brother, Ren, sacrifices himself to stop the war. Robit and Pok gets into an argument, and forced to end the relationship each other.

Pok and the others arrives back to the apocalyptic world to stop the apocalypse, but Maul and his crew corners and attacks them. The final battle ensues when Maul is crushed by the third Mushroom Bomb. After Pok and Robit restores their frienship, he puts all the robots' new parts on business, along with his friends.
