I, Robot (2004)

The ending about the robots being slaves and being set free is all a bit too much.This movie is from a book of short stories, the author obviously has a hardcore mindset about this type of stuff - almost like he takes it way too seriously. This flick could've had a better alternative ending, but the film wanted to clearly make robots on the same level as humans with emotions, it nearly spoils the film, it's so out there that this type of thing will never happen in reality, robots can only be advanced to a certain point, but feelings and emotions - no that is ridiculous. The movie at times makes the robots so human-like to the point where at times you feel sorry for them.I, Robot is an attractive film, but is illogical, the ending forces the viewers to look at these robots as though they are actually human, it wouldn't be surprising if the author of the short story series and the writers of this film are atheists, the story is 100% unrealistic, the truth is God made man and woman aka humans, nowhere is it stated in the Bible that robots are made to be just like humans, robots are important in today's society, but not to the extent as the portrayal in this flick.Also want to add about the scene with the cat, as an animal lover i'm hoping that the cat was a CGI cat (the scene with the cat all wet in the pool with Will Smith) cats hate water, i don't believe that was a real cat in that scene due to his/her eyes being two completely different colors.

Set in the year 2035, Will Smith stars as "Detective Del Spooner", he doesn't like and doesn't trust the robots of society due to a bad experience. Bridget Moynahan plays "Dr. Susan Calvin". The main plot is the scepticism about the suicide of "Dr. Alfred Lanning" (James Cromwell) the co-founder of U.S. Robots and Mechanical Men.The CG robots are entertaining to watch, their movements and interactions with humans in everyday life is a clever portrayal.The plot can be confusing, so it's better to watch this film more than once to understand it fully.Another scenario is that the robots actually have feelings, this one particular robot "Sonny" (Alan Tudyk) can actually be titled as one of the main characters. His performance is very moving.There's a lot of great CGI scenery, the film has great pacing, good acting and perfect directing.

I'm writing this review because I just finished watching I Robot for the 2nd time. The first time I watched it I was in Jr High and I rented it at blockbuster with my father. I remember loving it as much as I did tonight. Now I honestly don't get why so many people hate it... This movie is so entertaining it's filled with beautiful CGI, It's action packed and it's a fantastically written movie, well that's just my opinion because I've read many reviews tonight that have totally hated the movie. This film to me is filled with action but that's not really why I love it so much. To me it has a very beautiful message, That message is that life is a beautiful thing and that Bad things happen but that's the joy of being alive... Good, Bad, Ugly that's what life is, having the freedom to make decisions for your life and to live with what ever those decisions Entail.Anyways to me this movie made sense in a lot ways. Robots would never truly understand life because they never lived so the whole movie made Complete sense. I don't want to give anything way so I won't say anymore except by the end of the movie everything single detail of this film I totally got and thus I love it. :)

It's a decent, the casting was relatively good as I think Will Smith is the only person who could handle his weirdly written character which is both comedic at times he has a personal connection with, such as when he meets with the CEO of USR, however on the other hand he gets very serious in others, seen in the scene where Calvin looks at Spooner's (dumb name) cyborg arm. I also didn't like the ending as I thought the message of "Robots will one day overtake humans" was lost when no one died and everyone is happy and the corrupted robots go back to their storage containers and Sunny stands under a bridge for a cool shot.So why'd I give it an 8? Well I really like the number eight it's my favorite number and it's a decent score for a decent movie. The movie is fun, people like fun movies and most audiences would enjoy it. I also liked the few Cyberpunk elements that were included in the movie.
