Many people will have read the book “I Robot”, written by Isaac Asimov. In 2004, Alex Proyas directed a film based on this book.
This science fiction story is set in 2035, where robots have become common place in homes, being used for menial tasks. When a scientist at U.S. Robotics, Dr Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell), falls to his death, the investigating detective, Del Spooner (Will Smith), suspects that one of the robots, Sonny (Alan Tudyk), may be to blame. However the robots live by three laws which prevent them from harming humans, so if Sonny was to blame then this could mean a serious flaw in the many robots in people’s homes. Spooner is a techno-phobe and has a deep dislike for the robots, which causes him to probe the case deeper despite objections.
This is a visually stunning story with an interesting story, but I felt that it relied too much on the special effects at a cost to the plot and dialogue. Will Smith does well in role that he has played many times in other films. The supporting cast is decent and includes Bridget Moynahan, Shia LaBeouf and Bruce Greenwood, but this is not enough to improve the quality of this film.
