Will Smith stars as cop Del Spooner, a man who distrusts all things robotic, who is assigned to investigate an apparent suicide in which a robot is the prime suspect. However, robots can’t harm humans.. or can they?
This film was apparently inspired by the novel of the same name, though from hearsay it does not bear much resemblence to it.
Either way, it’s a pretty good film. Smith and the other actors do pretty well, the acting is fairly solid and the characters are good. Even the robot is believable as a “person”, as it were, so I think it works well.
The special effects are good quality. Only at one point during a car sequence did I think “hmm, that looks pretty fake”. The rest of the time it was seemlessly done. If any bits were completely computer generated scenes, then I couldn’t make them out from the real action.
It’s worth a go. 8/10.
