A Great Flick: Smith's Best Yet* and Summer's Second Best

Rating: 7/10 (18 July 2004)

I went into this expecting what We've all been told to expect--yet another Will Smith sci-fi summer movie with a big budget and no brains. The SFX were definitely there, but the story was what kept this movie alive and running from start to finish, with enough plot twists to give it an almost M. Night Shamalahn feel.
*(I say this is Smith's best yet because I don't consider "Enemy of the State" to be a "Will Smith" movie in the same way ID4, MIBs, WWW, etc. were.
"I, Robot" IS good and even comes close to--but does not surpass--"Enemy of the State").
