The Taste Chip (2000)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
A robot named Bobtron wishes to obtain the sense of taste, which he believes to be the last step to becoming fully human. More importantly, with this new sense he would be able to show Tina, his human girlfriend, how much he loves her. For this, he asks inventor Dr. Roger to implant on him a "taste chip" that he obtained from another scientist, Dr. Mifune from Japan, but things don't go as planned!

Content check
Based on the age rating and content tags — not a full scene-by-scene list.
Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
