Fabulous mental escape. It's fun and playful, rather than dark and foreboding. And there doesn't seem to be an original cyber-bone in the movie's body. But it's put together in a fabulous package.
A summer action movie that has a brain and doesn't let it atrophy? Fan me, I'm fainting!

I just watched Aquaman and was so disappointed in the whole thing,especially the CG! Now this movie comes on TV, i had never seen it...i was shocked to find out it was made in 2004! CG was way better than Aquaman made in 2019! The robots look real, acting is pretty good and the whole thing works. Interesting story line for and great camera work. I loved it. Must watch.

There are not very many movies that have everything you look for. I, Robot is one of those rare films. It has action, suspense, drama, romance, robots, Will Smith shooting stuff, and great lines.

It's a high-tech thriller that really works.
A cluttered, awkward blockbuster that's just smart enough to get itself into trouble.
I, Robot strives to be so many things that it ultimately falls away to nothing, a heap of expensive metal parts.
A humans vs. robots saga that feels machine-made, I, Robot looks to have been assembled from the spare parts of dozens of previous sci-fi pictures.
If you see it, the sequel will be your fault.
"I, Robot" from 2004 delivers a solid action sci-fi experience. Visually, it's a standout for its time, with a great depiction of futuristic Chicago and well-designed robots. Alex Proyas's directing creates a cool, dark vibe, which fits the central "are the robots turning on us?" concept. Will Smith is entertaining, though his character's robot-hating trait is a bit over the top. The script has some shaky moments and plot holes, and it feels like they could have explored Asimov's laws more effectively. However, the action sequences are fun, and the pacing keeps you engaged.
For me, the sound design and score added to the experience, especially in the intense robot action scenes. It's a good popcorn movie, aiming to entertain, and it succeeds at that. Sure, it has flaws, and it's not a perfect adaptation of Asimov's stories, but if you want a fun action movie with cool visuals, it's worth a watch. It's the kind of movie you can put on and enjoy without overthinking.
