Asimov would have been proud

Rating: 10/10 (4 January 2005)

I wrote this review late because I didn't see this movie 'til now(1/5/04) but after seeing it and reading all the reviews I have to tell you that no critic I read had a clue what I, robot was supposed to be about. I, Robot was never a "book" or a "novel" that could be made into a movie. It was a huge number of short stories that dealt with having robots become a part of everyday life and evolve into something more than man meant them to be.
This movie captured everything that Asimov put forth in his stories. I won't get into a long drawn out defense of my opinion. The ones that grew up reading the I,robot stories know what I'm talking about and the critics that didn't have no right to even try to compare it to them.
If they want to critique the movie for itself, fine. But for them to reference Asimov's stories in their reviews just shows their ignorance and self importance.
I, as a childhood reader of Asimov's sci-fi, was thrilled to see all of his stories brought together so well in a single movie.
