Just got back from a showing of The Creator. Take some Blade Runner, a bit of Star Wars, a splash of Short Circuit, shake vigorously and garnish with a bit of the tech from Avatar and serve immediately.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not dissing the film, because the film doesn't ape any of these. But, you can clearly see their influence in the story, the set design, the cinematography, and even in some of the characterizations. All in all, it's a well made film with a good story that's well told.
ETA: Directed and co-written by Gareth Edwards who also directed Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, so that easily explains the Star Wars influence, especially the look of some of the robots.
