I, ROBOT (2004)

Cast

Plot

It's 31 years on from where we are now, and Gee a lot of things have changed (though a notable exception seems to our dress sense). Chicago cop, Del Spooner, lives in a world where robots have taken over all the domestic and social drudgery, in fact humanity has become so dependant on them that if they went rogue people would be pretty much defenceless. Spooner doesn't like robots and he has good reason (actually he doesn't, but the important thing is he's got "issues"), so when a ground breaking robotic scientist apparently falls to his death Spooner immediately begins the hunt for a mechanical killer, and what a monster of a conspiracy he begins to uncover. I Robot is a super slick CGI heavy action thriller "suggested" by a novel by Isaac Asimov, I suspect I know where Isaac would have "suggested" they ‘stick' this film, but pretensions aside this ain't a bad slice of eye candy escapism.
