Good, but should have been better

Rating: 7/10 (16 July 2004)

I, Robot is a very entertaining movie to watch. The special effects are top notch and the actors are pretty good. However, after a few hours go by since watching the movie, you feel like there should be something more. This is basically another cop who has a theory that nobody believes until it is too late movie. I have not read Asimov's original book but I would think it would something more than this cliched storyline. I had the same problem with Minority Report two years ago. Despite the faults of the movie, I do recommend the movie if you want to see an exciting thrill ride. As for the intellectual questions about man and machine, the Terminator films have gone down this path before and a lot better. Still, the movie beats that overlong King Arthur flick. 7/10
