Title: Asimov would like it.
Review: Will Smith is Del Spooner, a robot hater. He works as a homocide detective and the movie begins as he receives a call from a hologram machine alerting him that his friend Dr. Lanning (James Cromwell) has died. Spooner immediately suspects that this was not a suicide, but a murder committed by one of Lanning's robot creations. From here, the movie packs exploration of Asimov's 3 robot laws in between some really good action scenes. Although it does not adhere to any of Asimov's tales, it incorporates the ideas of several of them throughout the film to a satisfying result for the Asimov fan.Overall, it was a really fun popcorn flick that managed to include some of the more interesting questions about man vs. machinery that have been raised in the sci-fi genre. Two thumbs up.
