There are some odd things about the movie, but I give it props for the moral of the story: our prejudices (and kinfolk, we all got'em) make us predictable.

The Fresh Prince (who felt the need to get naked and wear Converse) doesn't trust robots, the movie. The plot and action scenes felt derivative and shallow. Asimov's I, Robot deserves more than this.
1 star for mentioning that…

I'll tell you one thing for certain - Had actor, Will Smith not been the star of "I, Robot", then, I know that I would've enjoyed viewing this big-budget SyFy/Thriller a helluva lot more than I did.
Yep. As the crybaby, robophobic…

🤖 Science Fiction Hall of Fame member and cantankerous wiseass and genius Harlan Ellison wrote a screenplay of Isaac Asimov's story "I, Robot," which was never produced. It would have been a masterpiece. It's been published as a book. If…

Will Smith's a bit of a jerk here, but the movie itself is fantastic and one of my favorite scifi fliks. It actually covers a lot more of the book it's based on, though a lot of important details vary. The biggest crime I find is a lack of…

The "I,Robot" anthology by Issac Asimov is one of his best works, he explains the 3 Laws of Robotics essential to the "positronic" robot brain. Each story in that anthology is a mystery on why the robots are acting the way they are and in…

I noticed a common theme in Will Smith movies: they're not very good. This sci-fi action movie is very loosely based on the Isaac Asimov book, which formulated the three laws of robotics. Smith plays a robot-hating cop in the future and,…

Will Smith as the main character ruined this one for me.

When Dr. Susan Calvin turned to Detective Del Spooner (Will Smith) and angrily said to him "You are the dumbest dumb person that I've ever met!", I couldn't have agreed with her more on that one point.
I thought that Will Smith (who was…

It was very good, I loved how they tied all the elements together though out the plot! No event was completely random. :)
The following applies only to the copy of "I, Robot" from the St. John's Branch. Checked out 3-27-2014, dvd is damaged by 3-4 deep scratches. Disc will not play after the 20-minute mark. Player simply refuses to recognize a disc is in…
@rgb1: The movie is indeed based on it, or (as I heard), the publisher said that it was "suggested by" the book of the same name. Again, this was several years ago that I heard this, but from the little of the book that I started…

I have a feeling that this movie is only very loosely based on the book by Asimov of the same name. Maybe someone will make a movie more closely based on the book.
