Advantages: That Robot has a scary face/voice Disadvantages: Everything else
...despite a far-fetched story line...and I, Robot could have touched similar bases with me....but didn't
The fact that Spooner had a mechanical arm was a little too much of a Judge-Doom-is-a-Toon from Roger Rabbit style revelation....giving the cocky copper an affiliation with YET reason to detest his metal chums.
I really didn't enjoy this film...but hey, what do I know?

Advantages: It takes you off somewhere Disadvantages: it doesnt take you far enough
Hmm, well I found this film to be a different one to the one I was expecting.
I was expecting it to be 'another will smith movie' when in fact he seems to have matured in this role.
Its all a bit um, action orientated, but with thinky bits in it, but not too many and not enough emotion other than for the robot of the title.
Its fine if you love future flicks, and even like Will Smith, then go see it, its not bad at all, there have been worse ...

Seeing this film at the cinema was definately the best way to see it, with it up on the big screen the CGI is even better. At first when this film came out i was sceptical about the robots and the CGI being any good. How wrong i was.
Will Smith is a suberb choice to play the lead role, his performance is amazing. The highlights of the film are spectacluar and plentyful.
It's the year 2035, and Will Smith lpays a Chicago law inforcer, with a grudge ...

Advantages: Great Special Effects and great Story! Disadvantages: None
I Robot. What a film!
Will Smith has done many great films in his time as an actor and has done few bad ones. I,Robot is certainly one of his great films. WIll Smith plays a paranoid policeman who hates technology, in particular the use of robots. Will Smith's character, Detective Spooner investigates the murder of Dr. Alfred Manning, the creator of the robots.
The film is full of action and has a great storyline which leads WIll Smith to ...

Advantages: The great special effects Disadvantages: The sometimes poor acting
I went to see this film and I loved every part of it. The special effects, the action, the plot, the futuristic look, and my favourite part, the haunting music, composed by Marco Beltrami (who also did Resident Evil, believe it or not).
The plot tells of a future inhabited by humans AND robots, who are controlled by the 3 laws which prevent them from commiting any crimes. That is, until Detective Del Spooner (Will Smith) believes that the death ...

Advantages: pretty good script Disadvantages: forgettable
...set-piece tunnel scrap for instance I, Robot is still RAM packed full of impressive action sequences.
So apart from a few minor short-circuits I, Robot is an enjoyable sci-fi, futuristic, whodunit. And although I knew it’d be a film that I’d quickly forget, for its runtime I enjoyed it.
4 stars out of 5 ...

Advantages: Good Graphics, great special effects, good story line. Disadvantages: None (SORRY COULDN'T THINK OF ANY).
This is one of the best films I have ever seen. The special effects are spectacular. This film is mean't to be based in 2035. It is a world which now has robots as 'slaves', but the robots evolve and start to go bad. All of this was sparked off with the 'suicide' of the inventor of the robots. But was later found out that is was a robot. The film is a mix between adventure and science fiction..
The special effects in the film really come to life ...

Advantages: storyline, characters and special effects are all brilliant! they use the same technology as they did for gollum. Disadvantages: If you don't like action movies perhaps another movie would be a better choice,
I, Robot is futuristic look on life in 2035, a place where artificial intelligence is beginning to really take hold in the real world.
"A robot in every household" as they say in the film.
I was very sceptical about this film to begin with, although I enjoy action films, the storyline of artificial intelligence had run it's course of intrest as far as I was concerned. I went to watch the film with a group of friends expecting something very repetative, ...

Advantages: Excellent film, non-sto[ action Disadvantages: he never reloads his gun!
Every year a new film comes with a unique idea on how the world is going to bugger itself but this film does it with class. Even though it s based on a book by Isaac Asimov which was written in 1950 it still feels like a modern and possible story. It is full of breathe-taking action and Will Smith catch phrases that you will be using for days after seeing the film.
The computer graphics are used to their full advantage to give a realistic image ...

In the future, robots are used everywhere for menial tasks, from housework to manual labour.
They are accepted as workers who cannot harm a human. Because of the Three laws, which prevents them from allowing any harm to come to a human.
Will Smith is a cop who has a grudge against robots who becomes wound up in a matrix style robot revolution when a robotic intelligence works out how to run around these laws.
I-robot is an action film that ...

Advantages: superb special effects, well thought out storyline, great film! Disadvantages: it won't happen in 30 years!
Imagine the future: fast, safe cars, almost everything fully automatic, and best of all, Robots. Will Smith stars in this amazing film, set in 2035, about a bizarre but not unrealistic future where Robots roam the world like humans, with there own lives, points of view, and three laws safe:
1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2) A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except ...

Advantages: Action movie with a reasonable plot Disadvantages: The original stories are a bit hidden on the action
If you go expecting a faithful version to Asimov stories be prepared. They used only the general idea.
Even so, the plot is a bit smarter than the average Hollywood movie. The idea of the consciousness of a robot is touched on the surface, but enough to create an interesting theme.
The action sequence is very good, and there are a few nice twists. The futuristic impression of chicago and the robots all look very realistic.
The chasing scenes, with ...

Advantages: Its got a very good plot Disadvantages: Overall, you would expect it to be better.
The Plot:
The plot of this film is very good. It is set in year 2035, well into the future, maybe a bit to far in the future according to the year. Every household has a robot in with them, there is 1 robots to every 5 humans, thats alot of robots! Will smith has his suspicions about the robots and nobody will believe him that the robots are dangerous. Well... they are and it is him against all of the robots.
The Review:
I thought the film was ...
