![]() ![]() Will Smith managed to pull off a stunning performance as "Del Spooner", a Chicago detective that is suspicious of robots and is against technology. And it was an Asimov-ish "whodunit" as well. The movie played with concepts that Isaac Asimov played with, if the three laws can be made, they can be broken. Even though during the ending credits it says that the movie was suggested by the books by Isaac Asimov most of the movie seemed to play quite well with Isaac Asimov's ideas about robots. I did get that, or at least the explosions part, but imagine my surprise when the movie ended up exceeding my expectations and more. I expected to see a corny movie full of explosions and killer robots. ![]() Because of this and because of the fact that I knew Will Smith was the leading actor in this movie I went into this movie with lowered expectations. 3) A robot must protect itself unless it conflicts with the first two laws. 2) A robot must obey all human orders unless it conflicts with the first law. The man was a genius in the way he wrote, he invented the three laws of Robotics, as the very beginning of the movie tells us, they are: 1) A robot can never harm a human. I loved his books and his ideas about robots. ![]() When I was growing up, one of my favourite authors was Isaac Asimov. ![]()
