Like me, if you had seen the trailer for I,Robot, chances are your opinion before seeing the movie would have been rather pessimistic. Seeing the movie at the Cinema definitely changed my opinion. I,Robot is definitely a good Sci fi flick that is worth watching.
The trailer had portrayed these super lame home assistant bots jumping around like monkeys, attacking humans and Mr. stereotype cop: Will Smith, bashing them away with his bad boys attitude. Well he still does that in the movie but the story along with its application and dialogue made this film rather intriguing.
While you move forward through the movie you come to realize that these seemingly harmless, and dumb looking bots are really not what they seem to be. The audience is made to see them through the eyes and mind of the suspicious cop Del Spooner (Will Smith) as cold and dangerous. I think this is one of the strong points of the film.
No special performances by any of the cast and Will smith goes about being just Will Smith. But I liked the voice of the main NS-5 (Nestor Class 5) Robot and it had neat facial expressions to give that mysterious and threatening look (and not forgetting the humanlike eyes it had).
As Sci-Fi this was a great movie touching some important areas on Robot and Mankind Interaction (however impossible they may seem) along with smart Sci-Fi lingo for a nerd like me.
The earth in 2035 was looking a tad too sophisticated and the special effects were obvious in many of the action sequences but can be forgiven for a movie like this. Overall good movie, get a copy and don't watch it with a Robotics skeptic.
