I, Robot is a film produced in 2004, directed by Alex Proyas and starring Will Smith. Although the history of the Series Robots Isaac Asimov, which includes a collection of stories of the same name, I, Robot is attributed. actually is based on a script by Jeff Vintar entitled Hardwired. Some ideas about robots Asimov - the most important, the Three Laws of Robotics - were added to the script after Vintar producers acquired the rights to the book title. The film also has some resemblance to a science fiction story, 1939 (pre-Asimov), "I, Robot" Eando Blinder, which is an "intelligent" humanoid robot, who is blamed for the death of its creator. This account is not related to Asimov's stories.

The action is set in the relatively near future, 2035, in the city of Chicago, where robots are part of everyday life on earth and the main workforce of the human species. The company sells and design / build Robots is USR for its acronym in English United States Robotics (Robotics in the United States). Detective Spooner (Will Smith) is a man who hates robots. In addition, he is a lover of the past, even using a gasoline motorcycle, a sports court early twenty-first century, or an old stereo (for the time in which it is).

The story begins with the alleged suicide of J. Alfred Lanning, engineer robot designer and co-founder of the company, creator of the NS-5 model and friend of Spooner. This makes suspect the detective and deduces that Lanning was murdered, and he will contact Susan Calvin, chief robopsychologist company together who discovers a robot that seems to be out of control

Based on the story by Brian Aldiss entitled "All Summer Toys Duran", was to be the last film by Stanley Kubrick, his masterpiece ... But after his death left the same charge that Steven Spielberg's film, I that became reality. A marriage that has suffered the loss of a child (which is the state of cryogenics), decide to buy a mech robot (Haley Joel Osment) who is capable of love. Eventually the machine manages to move the wife and husband, but with the passage of time and the recovery of the dead child, the presence of good robot in the house is a nuisance. So they decide to leave in the forest (in the most cowardly way possible). From there, the robot will try by all means to become a child, in the vain hope of return to be accepted by the mother, who, after all, can not help but love. This cross will be carried to extreme lengths. As a point of interest, we can not fail to note the care and spectacular visual aesthetic, especially the view of the city (reminiscent of BLADE RUNNER and THE CLOCKWORK ORANGE), and special effects. But the weakest point of all is the attempt by the director to adopt the Kubrick style. In Kubrick ten minutes of inactivity, are, in the worst case, a germ within the public expectation. In Spielberg are decidedly soporific. In Kubrick, the plot is at least interesting to seek emotional or psychological instances. In Spielberg, the plot tries to be sentimental. In Kubrick, the effects never overshadow the story, and this is in all cases, aimed at an adult audience. In Spielberg, the effects always overshadow the story, and this is in all cases oriented to young audiences. Obviously I do not mean the complete filmography of both directors but certain films, the fantasy genre. In short we can say that A.I. ends up being a cyber version of Pinocchio, mixed with the approach of Ray Bradbury-style robots.
