Robot, think. Robot, do. Robot...kill?

Rating: 7/10 (17 April 2005)

If you will, the year is 2035 and society has welcomed full functioning robots in a servile capacity. Robots serve your breakfast. Robots deliver your paper. Robots pass you by on the busy sidewalk. Robots kill? So thinks Detective Del Spooner(Will Smith)when he begins investigating the death of a prominent robot developer Dr. Alfred Lanning(James Cromwell). It appears a robot has pushed Lanning from a mega multi-story building. Now Spooner becomes you may say...technophobic. He believes the introduction of a new model of robot gives cause to fear. Bruce Greenwood plays the robot developer that begs to differ. Bridget Moynahan seems to be the only person to finally believe Spooner has been attacked by throngs of robots. Alan Tudyk supplies the voice of a robot named Sonny, who gives reason that robots created to serve and protect can actually turn criminal.
Astonishing F/X or CGI or both. My favorite scene is when the robots attack Spooner in the tunnel. Also in the cast are: Chi McBride and Adrian Ricard. Smith proves to be an apt action hero; but why in the hell does he insist on the stupid wisecracks! Overall I, ROBOT is fun and enjoyable.
