| Unlike
recent science fiction disasters and remakes, I, Robot understands
the importance of making a story relevant. We see Smith’s character
putting on a new pair of 2004 Chuck Taylor Leather Converse shoes.
He still has a motorcycle, which is virtually unheard of. He still
likes sweet potato pie made by his grandmother, and the less influence
that Robots have in his life, the better. What we have is a reminder
that sometimes the simple things, and the things we are forced to
do ourselves, are among the most valuable things that we can experience. |

| SYNOPSIS
|
|
Will Smith stars as Detective Del Spooner in the high-tech thriller
I, ROBOT, suggested by the book of short stories by visionary author
Isaac Asimov. In the year 2035, technology and robots are a trusted
part of everyday life. In this film, that trust is broken and only
one man, alone against the system, sees it coming.
I,
ROBOT employs spectacular visual effects innovations beyond any
ever before put on screen to bring a world of robots to life. The
character of Sonny, a special robot who holds the key to a murder
-- and perhaps the survival of the human race -- represents the
cutting edge in photorealism. Indeed, Sonny is the most realistic,
emotionally complete, three-dimensional CGI character ever created
on film.
I,
ROBOT is directed by Alex Proyas (“Dark City,” “The
Crow”), who creates an extraordinary future Chicago -- circa
2035 -- where robots are completely integrated into society. Bridget
Moynahan stars opposite Will Smith, as the robot psychologist Dr.
Susan Calvin. Bruce Greenwood plays Lawrence Robertson, the corporate
head of U.S. Robotics, and Chi McBride portrays Spooner’s
boss and friend Lt. John Bergin. Actor Alan Tudyk’s physical
performance inspired the digital creation of the robot Sonny. James
Cromwell plays the pivotal role of the brilliant and reclusive scientist
Dr. Alfred Lanning.

 Review
by MIKE FURCHES
It's
not often that my daughter strongly urges me to see a movie after
she has seen it. But after
a few tough weeks in a pretty tough summer for our family, she
kept on thumping me with the comment: “Papa, you know I
don’t watch movies to find spiritual themes, but you’ve
got to see I, Robot! I keep thinking of new spiritual themes in
it all the time.”
