Rating: 7/10 (7 August 2004)

I have mixed feelings about this film. It is a good action flick, and Will Smith really delivers. It has an interesting story. Close to the original works, or as close as Hollywood likes to get to the original stories on any film. The problem that I have is the lack of reality. I hate it when there is only one person in a movie that seems to know what is really going on. As is the case in I, Robot.People are so trusting of the robots they seem to be as programmed as the robots they own. Will Smith is the only person who takes the time to stop and say "Maybe things aren't what they seem", and of course he has to be over the top about it. He's living in the future(the near future granted),but he seems to be still living in the past. Refusing to give up the the things that are popular today. It really is a walking add for todays little necessities. However, all the mindless Hollywood drivel aside. It still has an interesting story, over the top action scenes(in a good action sort of way), and an ending that both gives you closure and something to think about. I would definitely watch it again, but I wouldn't put it on my favorites list.
