This is better than critics and some are saying!

Rating: 9/10 (16 July 2004)

This is a movie, not literary art. For a blockbuster popcorn movie, it's astonishing. Great technical achievement in having computer generated characters mix with human actors. Years ago an essayist predicted that Hollywood would abandon multi-million-dollar actors and use computer-generated actors instead ... getting close. The script seemed strong to me, adding to Asimov's original idea and premise, turning it into both a thought-provoking and watchable movie. I thought Will Smith was stronger than usual, an increase maturity without losing his sarcastic ways. I think that all-in-all, the Robot "Sonny" really does need to get an agent and increase his movie salary next time. ;)
