Fishback does a fantastic job making the audience feel for Robin's fraught personal circumstances, yet at the same time being amusingly spunky and outgoing, allowing her to hold her own against her A-list co-stars.

In a genre still struggling to offer diverse representation across the board, Robin makes for an uncommon and appealing protagonist, despite her lack of star power compared to Gordon-Levitt and Foxx.
