Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe car used by Will Smith's character is a concept car called Audi RSQ, which was designed exclusively for the film and includes special features suggested by director Alex Proyas.
- GoofsWhen Spooner is fighting off the NS-5s while Calvin attempts to gain access to V.I.K.I.'s positronic brain, Spooner drops a large gun with a shoulder strap which then appears to spontaneously attach itself around a large guide wire. The gun-strap actually swings over and snags onto the guns clip. If you slow down the shot you can see it easier. Its also explains why the straps length is shortened by half.
- Quotes
Detective Del Spooner: Human beings have dreams. Even dogs have dreams, but not you, you are just a machine. An imitation of life. Can a robot write a symphony? Can a robot turn a... canvas into a beautiful masterpiece?
Sonny: Can *you*?

A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Featured review
I thought the concept of the storyline was good, as it could be conceived as realistic. Given the ever increasing advances in modern technology, one can, indeed, conceive the possibility of this kind of future occurrence.
I did not really see any flaws in this movie or in the actor's character but the philosophical aspect of the movie questions at what point does artificial intelligence cease to be artificial and true consciousness arise? Anyhow, I did like the A.I. in this movie and would definitely recommend, especially if you like Will Smith movies are the Terminator series. I do, however, prefer there to be no sequels to this movie due to the fact that a sequel would probably be no more than a revamped version of the first one. With that being said, I recommend seeing it. 8/10
