    (SPOILER WARNING) The trailer makes it out to look terrible, when really it's not. In fact, it's kind of amazing. First, let's start with the bad: it's incredibly long, Galatea is the worst, and it starts out slow and boring. That's it. Now, the good: it's a visual masterpiece, Robin Williams does a great job performing both sides of Andrew, the story's interesting and you start to feel for him a little while in. We see how this robot desperately wants to be like the rest, and by the end he is, dying with a mortal brain and organs. He can experience love and eat and smell, it's just a fantastic storyline. The visuals are mind-blowing for the late 90s, and the futuristic locations feel very atmospheric. Overall, a pretty good film.
  • Wonderful movie!

    This is one of the few movies and soundtracks that I could actually watch and listen to with my small daughter. It never grows old for me and I really miss Robin Williams.

    This is a terrible movie and I feel bad for Robin Williams for being in it. But it was still better than Click with Adam Sandler

    they really put real effort in the overall message. The two main actors really had great material to work with. Well, make that four. +, this is a great piece of effort by all involved.

    Get your tissues. The over forty adults cried at the theater. This is a keeper. This should be on every ones bucket list. Robin Williams should have been knighted. So many people missed his awesome range as an actor! Can you say "posthumous Oscar and knighthood for Sir Robin Williams." This is a fictional drama with very deep meanings. The kids won't get this.

    This movie is amazing, if one for a second put aside the fact that it is a sci-fi and leave robot alone, that one will realize that this movie is about human relationships, feelings, emotions, hate and love. Almost every single conversation is make sense, if viewer will pay attention to it. For those who expected sci-fi with robots flying and killing each, explosions and fights look for somewhere else!

    An interesting and touching film adaptation of the book “The Positronic Man” written by Isaac Asimov and Robert Silverberg. Fairly true to the book, and starring the wonderful late Robin Williams (RIP). Definitely worth watching.
  • Beautiful

    As beautiful as it is unknown and under appreciated. It is a film about the future and about robots, yes. However, it's primary topics are humanity and potential. When will we stop pushing back against the tide of evolution and individual potential in all forms, simply because it doesn't fit into the societal constructs we create and thereby makes us uncomfortable. What this film truly spans is the amount of time it takes for a new concept, like the equality of a previously unequal class, to be accepted and embraced. This can be drawn as a parallel to so many other efforts for the same goal. Again, a beautiful film and the best adaptation of and Asimov story to date.
