I, Robot
1 of 1 found this helpful Though "very loosely based" on the Isaac Asimov novel, this film is a very entertaining offering. If Asimov had written his book nearer to the turn of the twenty-first century, we may well have had the Will Smithian Del Spooner showcased in this movie. Good writing, good directing, great special effects, and some surprises in the acting department. Smith does not deserve an Oscar nod for this role, but he submits a somewhat fresher spin on the burned-out cop characterization. Servicable extras on the second disc offer up intersting background information in the form of interviews, behind-the-scenes documentaries, effects workshops, among others. If you enjoyed the movie even a little bit, it is worthwhile to spend the few extra dollars for this "all-access" edition.
